Saturday evening, I was thinking about the nonsensical decisions by our "health experts" in regards to closing down golf courses (Ontario), closing camp grounds, among others, while keeping big multinational stores like Walmart open - and it dawned on me, there might be another purpose to these decisions.

Until recently I've just thought of these decisions as a means to keep the level of fear high, and, to further damage small businesses.

Demoralization fits the bill as well. Take away the activities which bring entertainment/relief, and in some cases, exercise/good health ... punish us for an extended period of time, to wear people down ... then, dangle those rights and freedoms as a carrot, which we can only get back if we do what they want us to. In this case, get vaccinated.

Case in point, a few days ago I was chatting with a local small business owner, she recently got vaccinated (even though she knew there was an unknown level of risk associated with it), and said something to the effect of "I cannot wait until everything opens up again". She seems to be under the impression that our "glorious" leaders will not move the goal posts again, that they will keep their word in lifting many restrictions once many of us are vaccinated.

Demoralization is a communist tactic, and it turns out the Nazis also used a similar tactic, which I stumbled onto yesterday:

In summary, they're hitting multiple birds with one stone: fear-mongering, destroying small businesses, and, demoralizing the population.
