I've never trusted the Canadian government, given how much they've stolen from us and lied to us over the decades. I knew something was up with the Covid-1984 business the moment talking heads in the media started yapping about it. I had friends tell me horror stories about Covid, so I wasn't entirely sure, but I still leaned toward the position the government is lying to us and my friends are brainwashed sheep, just like the rest of the soulless North American hive mind.
My belief the pandemic was 95% false went to 100% because of two things:
The government did a complete 180 degree turn on their position the virus is harmless, masks are completely unnecessary and you're a xenophobe and racist if you want to close the borders. They now advocate the exact opposite. To me, this sounds like they changed their minds once they were convinced of the political advantages of Covid-1984 from an authoritarian control and surveillance perspective.
The other thing that did it for me was the BLM rioting. Nobody bothered with social distancing and masking during the riots simply because the cause was a politically correct one supported by leftist elites. When pro-Trumpers rioted on Capitol Hill, leftists were worried about the spread and transmission of Covid-1984, but obviously only because of ideological disagreement (otherwise, how else could we account for the double standards?)
JFL at naive, innocent sheep who think the government cares about your health. Your government doesn't give a fuck about you.
Yep. I remember seeing the stories about cremation urns stacked high on the streets of Wuhan and thinking it was going to get crazy here. Fast forward to today where they stated that 63% of ALL covid deaths here in BC have been in long term health care centers...so people on deaths door already. Yawn. Despite this televised fact everyone thinks this is the bubonic plague, because it's a been a year of non stop propaganda spreading fear everywhere.
They flip flopped on the efficacy of masks and then told us they lied to us for our own good. They sent China PPE and then had China send back contaminated PPE. There were Chinese nationals living here buying up sanitizers, cleaning products and PPE and sending it back to China but telling us we are racist for not eating at Chinese food restaurants.
And now we are being told we need to lockdown because of hypothetical scenarios and invisible variant boogeymen.
