Are you seriously trying to suggest that the reason we are still dealing with covid shit is because the government wasn't authoritarian enough the first few months?

That is certainly my view. If not for political correctness, partisan anti Trump hysteria, and globalist economic greed, this pandemic could have possibly been nipped in the bud had borders been closed and a temporary lockdown enforced when the outbreak first occurred. This wasn't done because of an unholy combination of neoliberal and libertarian orthodoxy.

I just flat out disagree with this take. It wasn't done because the cabal that controls the modern western world manufactured the crisis to achieve other goals. Flu and cold outbreaks with millions of deaths among the old and sick are part of the normal ebb and flow of human life.

I'm pro fascist and want an ethnostate with a very strong government. I would criticize that government too if they overstepped and locked the entire country down and destroyed business over a virus with 99% survival.

    Closing borders would probably have had zero effect because covid was already raging in the USA. I caught it back in Feb 2020 along with pretty much every other person I know. That was a good month before covid-hysteria kicked into high-gear. In fact, it's likely that the USA was well on the way to heard immunity. Locking everything down was just stupid especially for a disease that only kills fat-fucks and people who are basically already on the way out.
