'There's certainly no shortage of counter-narrative on SaidIt.' There's so many posts saying it's overblown that it is completely one-sided in my view. Nobody rational is going to be fully convinced of something by only looking at one side of the argument. Honestly, I would normally be annoyed with accounts like Rdh who consistently post only one side of the argument (and to some degree I am, especially at its refusal to debate science), but in the current state this sub is in, this poster is challenging the prevailing narrative and forcing people to actually debate the arguments put forth by pro-lockdown folks.

'I'm having a hard enough time with the one person IRL of the many non-believer folks I regularly see still performing the mask ritual.' What exactly is the mask ritual? Why is a non-believer performing it? I will guess that they believe corona is an overblown threat but wear a mask anyway. I don't really see how them wearing a mask is very bad, unless masks are harmful, which I heard about but never investigated. Get them to protest lockdowns and hand out leaflets about how useless it (apparently) proved to be and so on. Honestly, I think these lockdowns could be an opportunity to encourage people to get off government reliance. Get them to go off-grid and start learning how to grow their own food. Given the collapse, I don't think it would be hard to convince people government reliance is a bad idea.

Tremendous wisdom? I don't know. Your post says it's absurd to give up your job and stuff to protect those with terrible immune systems, so it starts off on the premise that corona is only risky to those in that state. You then claim they refusal to do proper tests. I don't know much about corona, so I can't say if either of those claims is true. Isolate the healthy is tyranny? I've heard it takes two weeks for symptoms to occur or something; it seems there is some kind of delay between symptoms and infection. How would they know if they are healthy or just delayed? Still, Bill Gates' involvement in corona stuff is very concerning.

'They lie for profit. Completely doubt them.' Yes, but I don't think nature is necessarily so kind as to only create mild viruses when there is a power-hungry government in place. Sometimes the best situation isn't a good one, but the least bad. Not that I'm certain this is the case here. Also, was that second sentence a reference to my username?
