The Collectivst Covid Cult and Their Call For Forgiveness

 

“...most errors were made by people who were working in earnest for the good of society.” Emily Oster (writing for the Atlantic)

Ya, that’s how totalitarian abuse ALWAYS works, the abusers THINK they are doing the right thing. Even the Nazi’s thought they were the good guys and the Covid response gave modern people just a taste of how such a totalitarian nightmare can become a reality.
 
Many people fell for the madness hook, line and sinker. Mask mandates, vaccine mandates, lockdowns, social distancing, essential vs the non-essential, destroyed businesses, destroyed savings, elderly people purposely forced to live and die all alone, child developmental issues, the mass propagation of fear propaganda, mass censorship, statistics manipulation, suppression of therapeutics in order to justify EUA for new drugs, Remdesivir deaths, police abuse of citizens on the street, outright violations of law under the excuse of "emergency," limitations of government power thrown right out the window, not to forget the massive money printing to forestall the very real consequences of strangling an economy. So many people just lapped it all up all "for the good of society" whilst they participated in and promoted mass destruction.
 
Ummm no, you don't just forget all that and move on.
 
Totalitarianism manifests as the people themselves support and police the tyranny. The "collective" or "group" is raised supreme over the 'individual." If the people didn't participate in the collectivist insanity then the insanity would come to a quick end. Many people who knew something was wrong even policed their own words in fear of being cancelled. The result? Totalitarianism just takes over society. We all witnessed it. It was madness.
 
A pandemic amnesty? No! People ought seriously examine themselves in light of what occurred and officials ought be held accountable. Self reflection and honesty is what is needed, not merely forgive and forget.
 
Yes forgiveness is important BUT not at the expense of a true repentance wrought via real reflection having induced a real sorrow. Otherwise a society just leaves itself ripe and vulnerable for the next "fearful threat" used to justify authoritarian control and abuse of the public.
 
I haven't seen much sorrow at all by those whom were caught up in the insanity of the Collectivist Covid Cult.

The Atlantic calls for ‘pandemic amnesty’ after ‘mistakes’ during Covid response
<<<A US publication has called for a “pandemic amnesty”, urging people to “forgive one another for what we did and said” during Covid.
 
Emily Oster, an author and economist at Brown University, argued in a column for The Atlantic on Monday that it was time to “move forward” and heal the social divisions caused by lockdowns, school closures, mask mandates and other public health measures over the past two years.
 
As evidence continues to mount that much of the pandemic response caused more harm than good — views which were routinely censored on social media and derided by politicians, media and public health officials during 2020 and 2021 — Oster suggested “most errors were made by people who were working in earnest for the good of society”.>>>

Consider an Alternative

 

Just imagine if a proportion of the capital and wealth destroyed due to the authoritarian restrictions in Australia had instead found its way into funding an increase in hospital capacity.

In a free market an increase in demand bids up the price of that which is demanded creating the incentive for an increase in supply due to higher prices. As the supply increases an equilibrium will eventually be found between supply/demand with the result being that more people will get what they want with more people willing to provide it, all without some bureaucracy trying to figure out such complexities and issuing orders.

This is a proven historical fact.

Whether it be in medical, construction or automotive, an increase in demand incentives an increase to supply that demand. In medical care that demand can be for doctors, nurses, equipment, beds and drugs. An increased demand will naturally create an incentive for an increase in supply.

Unless of course you have a centrally planned bureaucratic medical system which has eliminated "price" as the means of rationing thus destroying the profit/loss incentive as it pertains to human behaviour and how people organise themselves.

Australia, to a significant degree, has a centralised beaucratic healthcare system run by the state. Thus money is "appropriated" by both legislative and executive fiat to "medical care" as opposed to being appropriated by a free market in conjunction with supply/demand principles.

You'll NEVER hear the Australian professional class in media/politics/health discuss such a topic because the Overton window has completely shifted into a centrally planned mindset. If one central plan fails it is only to be replaced with another central plan.

Good luck with that.

The Danger of Centrally Planned Medical Dictates

It is very disingenuous for both the medical and political establishment to COMPLETELY IGNORE ANYTHING that has to do with healthy lifestyle choices, like the things we choose to eat, exercise, being outside in the sunlight, in the fresh air, things which go towards developing and maintaining a strong immune system.

It is also very disingenuous for both the medical and political establishment to COMPLETELY IGNORE ANYTHING that has to do with an unhealthy lifestyle, like the consumption of sugary drinks, junk food and processed low nutritious food, a lack of exercise, a lack of exposure to sunlight and fresh air, as well as things like stress, fear, and anxiety, all things that are deleterious to the human immune system.

The reason the average age of death is around 80 years of age for people whom are diagnosed as being Covid positive is because older people's bodies are generally in more of an advanced state of functionally breaking down. This is why older people generally suffer more health issues than younger people. This is obviously common sense and a well known fact.

Those with robust immune systems, generally speaking, have no issue with Sars-CoV-2 infection.

We live in a society where many people make very unhealthy lifestyle choices which clearly makes them more vulnerable to virus outbreaks like Sars-CoV-2. Yet both the medical and political establishment put ZERO EMPHASIS upon these lifestyle choices as it pertains to Sars-CoV-2 and that is certainly very strong evidence that what is going on today has NOTHING to do with human health.

What is going on today has EVERYTHING to do with corralling a population into centralised medical care, a system where "puboic health" is at the whim of a medical bureaucracy wherein the people's medical choices are dictated to them. It's both a tyrannical and dangerous approach to people's health.

Why is it dangerous? It is dangerous because it forces a "one size fits all" plan on every single human being. Thus if, God forbid, there is an error in the plan, then that error is forced upon all.

It's the same principle as to why centrally planned economies have historically proven not to work. In the U.S.S.R. there was no inbuilt error correcting mechanism for erroneous central dictates on production and thus economic efficiency was severely handicapped. Under a free market economy the error correcting mechanism is found in profits and losses. The inefficient and those producing what people do not want simply go out of business in favour of the ongoing successful business of efficiently producing what is desired.

The same principle applies to health. When individuals are free to determine their own behaviour according to their own risk/reward assessment the outcome of that behaviour will serve to indicate which behaviour is better and which is worse. That indicator which can be utilised for error correction is completely destroyed under a centrally planned medical system.

What happens when every human being is forced to be vaccinated as it relates to a particular threat, Sars-CoV-2 being the present example? Well, vaccine obtained immunity becomes the new default having eliminated any competition with natural immunity. This is of course a wonderful thing financially for Big Pharma, but it is also a situation in which a fundamental error correcting mechanism for erroneous central dictates has been destroyed.

I don't think many people realise the danger of this. A medical dictatorship cannot result in a positive outcome for overall human health because of this. It's not just the danger of financial incentives and corruption which can substitute good intentions, it's the fundamental danger of a lack of an inbuilt error correcting mechanism which only freedom of choice can bring.

Think about it.
