> the world has collectively lost it's mind since 2020
Covid causes brain damage. The common symptom of "loss of smell" was found to actually be due to covid infection of the neurons in brain & cranial nerves. Obviously "brain fog" (or memory issues, fatigue, lack of focus, however people articulated it) is due to damage to brain.
I wonder how society moves forward. We didn't get the movie-horror-story virus that turns people into zombies, but we did get a virus that leaves many people with diminished emotional regulation, attention span and ability to reason.
Covid did none of that. Our idiotic, hysterical reaction to a respiratory virus caused 99% of the fallout. Hysterically blaming the dreaded Covid is part of why things are so fucked. Every single Covid mitigation was exactly the opposite of what a rational society would have done.
Good lord. It amazes me that people still buy into the hysterical Covid narrative painted by a bunch of media appointed, politically motivated “experts”.
You were lied to and manipulated for others gain. It takes an extreme amount of privilege and a very sheltered world view to keep buying into the 2020 covid narrative. Snap out of it.
Have you ever given any serious consideration to the possibility that the podcasters and youtubers you've been listening to are in fact lying and manipulating their listeners for profit?
When I get invested in a certain belief, I find it useful to ask myself "What would it take for me to change my mind?". It's a helpful tool to catch situations where I've been discounting or ignoring evidence that goes against my belief. If you ask yourself that, and the answer is that nothing would change your mind, then you're not making evidence-based decisions, you're making decisions based on faith or (potentially mis-placed) trust in a person, group or identity.
Are you arguing that the publicly available, state sponsored data is a lie? Or just that all the “experts” we were told to listen chose ti ignore that data. Because I’m not following podcasts or fox or whatever trope covidians tell themselves people like me follow. I looked at the data and science. And it looks absolutely nothing like what the idiotic “expert class” told you.
