People are tired and burned out. I cuss every time I wear a mask to the grocery store, and yeah, I go to the grocery store.

We live in a society where 30% of the population is insane. They argue that Australia, with a grand total of 3,000 deaths (compared to our nearly 1 million) has become a fascist state because of its lockdowns.

But Australia did not do lockdowns in a vacuum. They provided essential government services and funding to help its population get through it.

There is nothing like that kind of mentality in the U.S.

In the U.S., people with smallpox vaccination scars on their shoulders are whining about liberties re:vaccines.

That's a pretty sick society that comes up with a big chunk of population that does that.

There's something a lot worse than COVID happening here in the U.S.

There's a mass mental illness, spread by right wing news and pundits and talk radio, that is killing a lot of people now. There's a deep moral malaise in this country, the kind Jimmy Carter talked about years ago, that has now completely taken hold of this country and is on the verge of destroying it.
