CV19 - Cure Worse Than The Disease? (Vol 18)
Discussion
Governments and newspapers love fear. Fear that requires a government to "do something" to save the population. Fear that generates clickbait headlines. That's not to say climate change / Covid / extinction events are not real threats, just that one needs to understand the lens through which crises are projected.

2008 was extraordinary, but it was building up way before then as I see it. We had been piling up debt for years before then and we just printed a load more money to "solve" the problem.
The Iraq war and the WMD were made up
Climate Change, 9/11, AIDS, famine, moon landings, war, peace, empire and everything else. If not entirely fabricated these things are at least spun and manupulated in a way and to such extraordinary degrees for the benefit of whatever it is certain groups want to do anyway.
The further I go down the rabbit hole the more sense it makes until I find myself scrabbling back out thinking these nutty conspiracy theories can't be right - it flies in the face of everything I know. Back out, blinking in the light I see people arguing over whether Boris Johnson had a glass of wine at his desk in a professional capacity as a key worker or or as a lying scoundrel who doesn't follow his own rules and I think this s
t makes alien lizard overlords seem like a logical explanation.
I'm caught between because the errant nonsense on the surface is so far gone that people aren't receptive to logic or reason, because they're too partisan and too caught up in picking over various details within the lies. Going down the rabbit hole again makes some sense but it isn't merely an uncomfortable truth - it's a complete reevaluation of who were are, what we're about and what we stand for. It would require the complete overthrow of every institution, the slaughter of every sacred cow and the smashing of every pillar that supports the current order.
I'm not a revolutionary by nature and I instinctively tend to thing that would do more harm than good. At the same time though I can't stand to see these lies go unchallenged where they become accepted as truths and become foundations of how we live.
I wholeheartedly agree, but before 2008 I was pretty politically naive and agnostic, I went along with the standard narratives. The political talking points you mention (9/11, climate change, AIDS etc) I also now look back on with huge suspicion, as you say, not that everything was entirely fabricated, but having seen how manipulated people can be to follow a certain belief or "truth" and then defend that belief so vehemently, I do find myself wondering was it ever thus? Probably so! The Iraq war and the WMD were made up

What is extremely clear is that division is key to all of this, left vs right, red vs blue, LGBT, BLM, vaccine status, climate change (deniers vs believers). If that division between the populace can continue, people driving it continue to profit. I am not talking shadowy figures plotting and scheming, it's pure unadulterated greed and want of power of the human being.
What I struggle with now is having any "normal" political conversation with someone that still thinks like 2019 and before. Talking about interest rates, and inflation and who to vote for next election, just baffles me now. It's all fluff, none of it has any bearing on our lives in a positive manner.
I am getting tired of it all now, but I think it's important to keep speaking out, or at least keep discussing it. We won't get admission and accountability, that is never going to happen.

This is where I recommend stepping back. There is a domino effect here where we ending up rejecting all interventions. I do believe COVID was a genuine threat. But is seemed obvious to me from the outset that the only way through it was to face it.
Limiting our interactions slowed transmission and was necessary. But we went too far and neglected human rights when we forced that behaviour change through lockdown.
Vaccines saved lives, but should never have been pushed for the young and healthy and vaccine passports were a deranged dystopian nightmare.
Doing nothing was never an option and Sweden at least tried to respect human rights in the process. They show us that the more draconian approaches did not bring greater benefits.
Sweden indulged in vaccine passports for entry, but not domestically. Having visited them toward the end of the pandemic I think there was a dual response in Sweden. What they did internally and what they presented to the outside world. This was obvious in the way that they ‘switched on’ all the COVID madness on planes leaving the country when none of it was required on the way there or anywhere within Sweden.
This is the sort of fine line I tread - on one side I agree with you that less is better and Sweden is to be applauded for a light touch. In the not insignificant way the Yugoslavia was far less awful than East Germany. Moderating the worst excesses of government is a worthwhile thing.Limiting our interactions slowed transmission and was necessary.

On the other side I can't accept that covid was a significantly dangerous disease that warranted any special measures. Not only because it wasn't deadly to most people statistically speaking, but because I don't want the government having those powers ever, for any reason.
I'd rather take my chances with a deadly disease than with an over mighty state. To my concept of what I am and am not, I am a free individual who makes these choices and judges these risks myself. I can ride a motorbike, jump out of an aeroplane, sail single handed across the Atlantic and set off up a mountain in the middle of winter. I can bloody well choose whether or not to go out when there's a nasty cold about. I am not a farm animal to be herded around at their behest, those rights and liberties are not something I'd willingly trade to stop a government policy (the NHS) from failing.
Doing nothing absolutely was an option. In fact it was pretty much the plan, worked out by actual scientists and experts long before we had a pandemic. Experts who noted that panic, fear and disruption would do far more harm than good. And whose recommendations were thrown out by opportunistic politicians and The Science (TM) when they realised they could 'get away with it.'

Again well said. Not only did I think this disease wasn’t worth any measures at all, it was never up to the government to impose any of them on us. Absolutely abhorrent for a western democracy, I can’t believe we allowed it all so readily, some welcoming more. Quite scary.

I don’t think these things flow from one another. First exposure to COVID was undoubtedly dangerous to a minority of people. That minority was big enough to overwhelm healthcare if they all required support at once. On the other side I can't accept that covid was a significantly dangerous disease that warranted any special measures. Not only because it wasn't deadly to most people statistically speaking, but because I don't want the government having those powers ever, for any reason.
So the social threat was real. However, the role of govt was overplayed. We didn’t need them to tell us what to do and we should not have expected them to save us from an entirely external threat that, for once, was not the result of their incompetence.
For me there is a world of difference between being asked to change my behaviour for the welfare of the vulnerable and being forced to do it to a level that I found personally offensive.

The pandemic plan was never to ‘do nothing’. But there were many options that would have been less damaging and probably just as effective than lockdown. Doing nothing absolutely was an option.

Sweden show us how it could have been. I’ve been there and spoken with the locals who said that life during COVID was pretty much normal for healthy working people. That could have been us.
The overreaction to the disease could have overwhelmed a health service, not the disease itself. Ventilation was the wrong course of action, which is resource hungry. Telling people to look after themselves and maybe eat better, drink better, take vitamin D and generally just treat it like a cold is not resource hungry, and would have done a better job at “saving lives”.
Now we have an overwhelmed, or basically a totally collapsed health service because of our reaction to it. It’s unforgivable, the data was all there, plain as day, for months.

He's not alone though. The world has irrevocably changed for me too. I feel like the Wizard of Oz's curtain has been pulled. I mean, I knew that all governments were fetid pools of corruption, but I believed that, in the west at least, it was kept out of sight and punished when outed. Now I see that even when presented with concrete evidence of their incompetence, embezzlement, nepotism, hands in the till, and downright dishonesty they either lie about it or shrug their shoulders and nobody seems to care. Why are they not being held to account?
I feel like the contract I had with the UK government has been broken and there's no way to fix it. They still expect me to keep up my side by paying in far more than I take, but they have no intention of upholding their side by providing a free and fair society. They don't even hide it any more. That they still haven't rescinded the power to place me under house arrest at will is chilling. That even with messages written by ministers stating they know it was all political theatre, people still think it's "no biggie." It all makes me literally feel sick. I have never felt less proud to be British in my entire life and there's nothing I can do about it. I am politically homeless with the only choice being between a sh!t sandwich or turd on toast.
The West as I knew it is dying and it's terminal. Tearing itself apart over whether women have penises, how many genders there are, how much we owe ex-colonies for things done hundreds of years ago, how many masks can save just one life, how many years of my life I should give up so Doris can have an extra 6 months to cower behind her sofa bleaching her mail. Whatever the western dream was, it's over. And then people wonder why Putin had the temerity to invade. I feel like we've never been closer to WWIII.
My outlook on life, the world, and everything, has changed. In some ways for good and in others for bad. I'm travelling a lot this year and for the next few before they stop us doing that again, in the name of a new bug, new war, net zero, or whatever they like as nobody will stop them. Maybe I'll find a part of the world I feel I fit in better. Whatever the outcome, it's now me and mine first and f**k everyone else. The majority have proven themselves not worth attempting to save. If they're willing to accept the status quo then they're welcome to it. It saddens me to feel that way, but when people won't even help themselves then there really is no alternative.

I agree that there were better things we could have done. However, that does not change the fact that the small minority of people requiring medical treatment because of COVID would have been beyond the capacity of the health service. Now we have an overwhelmed, or basically a totally collapsed health service because of our reaction to it. It’s unforgivable, the data was all there, plain as day, for months.
There are three ways to tackle this:
1. Implement measures to protect the vulnerable whilst allowing the rest of the population to become infected and recover.
2. Increase healthcare capacity to the levels required
3. Implement population wide measures to slow the spread of the disease, extending the duration of the pandemic, but reducing the peak.
We were told that the first two options were impossible, so we went ‘all in’ on the third. In fact, if you read Mark Woolhouse’s book you will see that his conclusion was that we massively over egged the pudding with lockdown because SAGE did not have the courage to wait to see if the behaviour changes they had recommended had worked.
The reality is that the most effective of these, working from home, had minimal societal cost.
Aside from the fiasco of the Nightingales we spent next to nothing on expanding healthcare capacity and instead spent almost double the NHS budget on furlough.
The problem that COVID caused was real, but our response was a failure on an unprecedented scale. The worst public sector decision making in living memory.
And that is why we should have never let them take our rights. They were not following the science, it was politics, spin and PR from the very beginning. An avoidable man made disaster
I do mostly agree with what you’re saying (and always have done!), I just can’t accept the premise that Covid presented any threat at all to our health service such as the limited severity of the disease and limited to such a tiny and easily distinguishable minority.
Saying that wholeheartedly agree with the final few paragraphs, it’s a massive scandal. And the pressure needs to be continued to be applied.
Oh look climate change. Balloons. Putin. Boris and cake.....

The issue, I think, is the woeful lack of capacity in our health services. Saying that wholeheartedly agree with the final few paragraphs, it’s a massive scandal. And the pressure needs to be continued to be applied.

If you were arguing that the NHS should have been able to cope I would wholeheartedly agree.
A disease of this nature was a foreseeable threat and we should have been able to handle it without torching our economy and human rights.
Sweden did.

Yes I agree Sweden was better, but that horse has well and truly bolted as far as I'm concerned and there is no getting it back.

Ahhh but here we part company. Yes there is a lack of health capacity but that was an excuse. The issue as I see it is grabbing power and money on the back of a bunch of lies.

Sweden has no excess death, which I think is solid evidence that our problems are due to lockdown.
Some questionable posters stuck inside a few lockers at the gym! Although it was already in existence, the scheme for claiming damages for 'severe disability' caused by a vaccine against certain diseases has now been opened up to Covid19 jabees.
