O/T Coronavirus Thread

[KerrAvon]

It will be unpopular with some posters for me to make this observation, but I think there was something in what the UK government said when they asserted that bringing controls in too early would simply lead to them being disregarded.

Johnson caught attention with his 'loved ones will die' comment, but people have forgotten it already. It's unsurprising, I suppose - what we are being asked to do is difficult; I had an arrangement to meet some chums for beer tomorrow and it annoyed me to cancel, even though we all knew it made perfect sense to do so.

With panic buying, the fear of missing out kicks in. People who understand that it is stupid see stories of shelves being cleared and so join in for fear of being left to go hungry if they resist the urge.

The next stage in the UK will be enforced lockdowns and travel restrictions. On Twitter, which I foolishly started to use a few weeks ago, some of the same people who complained about government 'inactivity' are now complaining about government 'fascism'. It would be funny under other circumstances.

Stay safe, folks.

I joined to see what the runners and riders in the Labour leadership contest were saying, but found addictive and faintly horrifying. Using Twitter to scratch below the surface of our civilization and you see how many self-obsessed and mentally off colour people there are.

At the moment, I'm being told that Covid is in fact a bio-weapon created variously by the Americans, Chinese or Israelis (that last one being strangely popular with Corbyn supporters). Either that or it was developed by an Illuminati type group who want to cull the elderly.

Michel Barnier has the virus. 69 year old.

And when you read some of the stuff on here, who can blame them.

Maybe it was the EU.

Kill of the Brexit supporters so they can have another referendum.

Plus the result of the virus will be socialism and authoritarianism, which is their model for a federal Europe.
