@AnonymousI'm glad you asked .
Where I live, covid has been used as a rational to keep people under home lockdown (shelter in place, is the polite euphemism), force people to cover their faces or be denied service, and coerce local farmers and friends out of business while big corporations get a free pass. The elderly are isolated from their loved ones to the point of despair. Clergy have been arrested for praying in their churches while violent rioters and looters are permitted to burn cities.
Science and our own best interest we are told are the measure for this unprecedented overreach. Dissenting voices in medicine, law, and psychiatry are silenced, mocked, and even threatened. If you are unfamiliar with what I am talking about, then I suggest you have seen only one side to a multi-faceted issue.
I am sorry if my observations offend you to the point that you feel the need to use shaming to underscore your own opinion. By the time Johnny Average spots tyranny, history attests that it is often too late.
Yes, I visited Checkpoint Charlie when I lived in Germany. And I studied the rise of the National Socialists as well. It wasn't, however, until I read the biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, native of your own Berlin, that I saw how the rise of social darwinism, secular humanism, and eugenics gave rise to a an overall disregard for life and thereby personal liberty. But that is another topic for another time on the same theme: history repeats.
If this causes you to laugh, I'm sorry. I find the events of these last six months very sobering.
Covid has come and gone for many in my circle, and has proved mild and/or highly treatable for the ones able to access the proper drugs (again, no thanks to alarming overreach on the part of certain officials into the medical sector, and not FDA regulations). It is my personal opinion there are other evils looming for all of us in this that are of a far more widespread and sinister nature.
Vielen Dank fuer deine Meinung. Ich wuensche Dir trotzdem alles Gute.
