Without the words and actions of our public serpents, it would have been just another nasty flu season.

I've been arguing this for over two and a half years, based on my own simple observations of what happened in the UK. Some people maintain that the public demanded the lockdowns which were implemented by governments, out of fear. It wasn't like that, in my experience. In February and March, there was no hysteria over Covid. Maybe 5% of people were wearing masks in supermarkets but the atmosphere was more or less normal. Following the publication of the Neil Ferguson Imperial College study, Boris Johnson announced VOLUNTARY measures to help stop the spread on March 16th. STILL life was fairly normal and people were gathering and socialising as normal, ignoring government advice, much to the annoyance of the press and certain other commentators. Then on March 23rd, Johnson announced strict mandatory measures and the masses complied, perhaps firstly out of fear of being prosecuted, but the mandatory measures and then the relentless and all-pervasive propaganda which followed them generated real fear and hysteria about the disease itself. Then in summer, when Covid had disappeared, and people were calming down slightly, Johnson announced the mask mandates and that was it, the final straw; the public were captured and controlled; the fear hardened into irreversible brainwashing. It was both intentional and malign on the part of the British government, deliberately engineered by the behaviourists at SAGE, and the objective was to soften people up for the mass vaccination campaign.
