What a fucking joke.
I sincerely hope the so-called "silent majority" who have tolerated these ludicrous and unnecessary measures finally put their foot down, say "fuck off," and go about their lives, taking full advantage of their civil liberties, as they should be allowed to do. This virus is going nowhere any time soon; telling people to stay in their homes, refrain from social contact, not go shopping unless it is for "essential" items, or whatever other seemingly pulled-from-a-hat measures with their Orwellian names are enforced will do no good in the very least.
We have the numbers. We have the data. We have the statistics. What do they tell us? That not only are lockdowns ineffective - and that is not even taking into account the decline in mental health, people being turned down for surgeries or treatments for other ailments, people losing their jobs, etc. - but the vast majority of the population will either be asymptomatic or recover in a short time with no lasting effects. I wouldn't wish this virus on anyone, but the response to tackling it has been fucking ridiculous and way out of proportion.
The elderly, those with preexisting health conditions, or the otherwise susceptible? Tell (don't force) them to stay at home while the rest of us - those of us who are healthy or will more than likely be absolutely fine if we catch it - keep society running. It might sound harsh, but that's life. Tough. Parity in these conditions is a non-starter.
"Daily cases" does not mean "daily deaths" or "daily amount of people suffering horrible symptoms and overwhelming hospitals" - it means people testing positive for the virus, even though they might not even get a sniffle. Then, once their body defeats the virus, they will be immune. Herd immunity, just like what happens with chickenpox among groups of young children. For the foreseeable future, that is the only way forward.
I will be spending Christmas with my family - at least nine of us under one roof - and I don't give a fuck about this "Rule of Six" or "YOU'RE KILLING GRANNY!!!" scaremongering bollocks. I'm beyond the point of caring. It's worthless.
