Easy big boy. I'm still here. :)
I'm watching the vaccine roll-out which has been underwhelming in terms of the logistics. Doesn't seem like it was very well thought out in terms of the federal, state and local coordination. That said I'm seeing a lot of vaccines going into arms here in the Midwest. People seem cautiously optimistic about progress throughout 2021 and more return to traditional living. Still a lot of unknowns remain. Frustration too for sure.
But I'm not hearing much about conspiracies! (Most of us are sheeple after all.)
It's clear you aren't that affected by lockdowns from your reaction.
In the UK, the hysteria and fear has been ramped up 1000% in the past weeks. You can feel it in the air as you walk down the street. People are just waiting to kick off at each other. You cannot trust anyone you don't know because they can grass you in and have the Police at your door for some imagined reason in their head. We are not meant to go outside unless we have a reasonable excuse of exercise or shopping basically.
I have more fear of other people. I don't know what crazy shit goes on in their heads which then they could easily unleash on you. You see a lot of lost and broken people where I live, walking around the town. It's really tense. It feels like a hell hole. Some Stasi nightmare that is never ending. It's hopeless.
But it doesn't matter. If the government says that vaccines are ineffective because of new strains, then a zero covid strategy will be pursued. Thus, the sheep will have a 'reasonable excuse' to doss in their neighbours and family to the Police, and random people will feel empowered to abuse and harrass you for daring to break the rules on visiting family or loved ones.
Just bloody insane. I will never look at people or the friends I had the same way again. Bootlicking scum.
