We live in a world where completely harmless lead compounds are removed from vaccines just to appease an overly dramatic population. So yeah, I don't really give much about what democratically elected politicians do about their voters' hysteria. There is no conspiracy, there is just the usual craziness of smart people trying their best to keep the idiots, who outnumber them greatly, in check. I don't think overreacting officials are stupid or malicious in their actions, they're just trying to do something about a situation that might not be harmful, but is completely out of anyone's control. The containment policies are more to prevent healthy people to hurt themselves by giving them ease of mind than to stem a virus. |
Yeah politicians are more about popularity than reality,whatever will gain them the best spotlight from the majority of the common folk is gold to a lot of them.
And yeah i do agree,the biggest damage will be caused by the panic people have about this and that sadly shows how much we still hold on to our shitty profit above morals media.
