Slightly off topic but in the same universe.... Over dinner last night, my daughter told the tale of one of her professors this past semester. Students in the class began demanding that he make the final exam online instead of in-person. He initially refused, but they repeatedly cited COVID fears. Perhaps fearing the inevitable backlash/protest, etc., however, he eventually gave in. Almost immediately, regular class attendance dropped by 80+ percent. Oh, and this was an upper-division class. AND, the final exam was ultimately a joke. AND, the professor wound up apologizing to the remaining 20 percent or so, including my daughter, who continued to regularly come to class and do the work. Her diagnosis (she's a psychology major) is that the COVID response broke her school and created a class of entitled college students who simply don't want to work for their grades. Now, this may be isolated, but I have a feeling it isn't. For her part, she's very concerned about what the Class of COVID will mean for higher-ed and this country.
You and your daughter are correct. Not only did it break our schools, at all levels, but broke any working government, corporation, institute and many other things. But more fundamentally Covid was engineered to break we the people to render us terrified and docile. Look to the World Economic Forum and Davos crowd for the ultimate criminals. Life in the Kleptocracy.

Pelosi is still letting people in the house work and vote from home - still getting paid - because of covid ! Disgusting
Yes, but she is one of the worst kleptocrats in American history. There are a few others as well.
