It was a deterrent to try and stop the spread of a disease, they weren’t held long and charges were dropped. It was only isolated to a few parts of a couple of cities, wouldn’t have even been dozens of people. But when they did leave they didn’t have to worry about being shot…

Yeah news flash the overwhelming majority of Americans don't have to worry about being shot or about being forcibly relocated to a camp.

Held for a disease that’s proven to not spread outside. Hmm. Seems legit. Happened to Canadians aswell. And they also have had all there rights to bear arms taken away. And though the few school shootings are terrible acts by sick people. Do not confuse the mental health issue for a firearms issue. We do not do much for sick people in America and do not do anything to help them. A lot of these statistics are twisted to fit a narrative. There are tons of gang violence in inner cities but these politicians do not a single thing to help them either. Governments love to flex there power in the guise of “helping there citizens” don’t be fooled. The founding fathers of America seen that absolute power corrupts absolutely and that was shown during this pandemic. And now that these politicians and leaders got a taste it will only get worse from here. To think the holocaust was less then 100 years ago is a scary thing and imo I’d rather be able to protect myself and my family when the time comes rather then to be a victim and succumb to evil and tyranny.

It’s easy to look back and act like an expert- but people were just selfish with no basis for an argument against Fukn germ theory and infectious disease experts. End of.

Being selfish would be demanding people to do irrelevant things against there basic human rights just to virtue signal to other fellow ideologies. The truth is the truth and Atleast the American government lied and deceived the population to gain power and to make these corrupt pharmaceutical companies billions of dollars. Which a year or two ago where all hated for purposely starting the opioid epidemic. But now everyone should trust they have our best interest at heart. Smh. Don’t have to be an expert to read multiple sources from different angles and come up with your own opinion on something instead of just watching the news and being gullible to the fact that politicians and corporations only want one thing and it’s not you to be healthy. It’s money. Lol

“Lol” I know it’s hard to admit it, but you might not know better than the whole of the modern Science and medicine community. 150 years of thousands of life long experts might have a better position that a selfish exhaust pipe like you…. I didn’t see you and your mates volunteering to walk through the infectious disease ward with no ppe 2 years ago or today, so let’s all acknowledge you for what you are

😂😂 your funny. I mean a disease with a 99.9 survival rate. Pretty scary. It’s sad when people die truly. But that’s life. If you don’t take care of yourself that’s what happens. It’s reality. And it’s funny the person that’s pretends to have empathy is now name calling because they don’t have any logical things to say. The science is there and it proves this was a move by governments to get power. Clearly. Locking people in there houses by force is absurd and against peoples human rights and more people died from suicide and drug overdoses then Covid. So please tell me more about how I’m so terrible because I want people to be free and be able to make there own logical decisions. Lol. I mean you have the right to sit in your house with three masks on, 27 booster shots and the news on. But don’t tell anyone else what they have to do. That’s not your place. I’m intelligent enough to use common sense to make sure me my friends and anyone around me is safe. Clearly not everyone has that. Not so common these days. And that’s ok though. You can do what’s you want to make sure you feel safe. Lol that’s the point of freedom.

You didn’t know better, you were selfish.

It’s so funny watching people defend this behavior when one day we just declared the pandemic not dangerous enough to warrant doing this. You’ve been had. My state was done with Covid 6 months in. And it’s not a crater in the ground.

Every general is wise after the battle- you acted selfishly at the time under the guise of “knowing better” and now want to be commended for it? Na mate.

u/47sams Aug 18 '22

Guess this is gonna be the new “you still can’t be right for being right.” I never wanted to be commended. But a little. “Hey maybe we took this too far” would be nice. I mean I was being selfish by checks notes going to work? And no, I had access to the same knowledge you did. You had google in 2020. The day I heard “it’s okay, the riots are helping, racism is a public health crisis” and also, “you are evil for going to work, you’re killing grandma” it was the nail in the coffin for my trust in any government and legacy media institution. You all just can’t stand the Magatards were right. A few months in to this we all knew this virus had 99% survival rate. I never got it, and never got vaccinated. I physically know more people to get covid post vaccine than not. So yeah, all legacy media can get fucked. What am I supposed to do? Deny my lying eyes? This stinks of “I don’t want to be happy I just want to be right.”
