Don't know... I'm very confused on this whole matter. Clearly the numbers have been inflated. So you've had busy beaches, demonstrations, and yet deaths are dropping. Where are the spikes from these mass gatherings?
Why face masks now, four months after the initial (known) outbreak? After them saying they're useless.
Here is my take on the two key drivers behind what is happening right now:
1) Incompetence vs Competence: Most leadership in most organization lacks even basic competence to do their jobs at an adequate skill level. The ONLY reason that productivity in the west keeps on going up is that the 20% of our most skilled and talented people have managed to outpace 80% of the rest of the unskilled and untalented people (Pareto Principle:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle). The wikipedia page is really dry, Dr. Jordan Peterson explains it far more vividly here:
It is hard to tell if we are at an inflection point where the 80% are starting to gain parity and outpace the 20% or if the internet is simply allowing us to see all of the incompetence around us a lot more clearly.
2) Post Modernism / Marxism: 100% of all western nations are infected and almost totally controlled by Post Modernists and Marxists. All media, all government, all key cultural institutions. These people are not rooted in reality, science and methodological analysis, infact, Post Modernism is by definition the rejection of all of that. Here is a fun video released just today about this stupidity:
I linked this video because the most fun part is the screenshot of the tweet that says "1 factory with spare parts plus 1 factory with spare parts equals 5 machines ". Jesus F Christ.
THESE PEOPLE TEACH OUR CHILDREN. They run our courts. They run our countries. They run all of our media now. The EU, CA, AU and NZ are 100% controlled by these people. Only in USA is anyone actually able to push back, that is only because they are a very rebellious people by nature on the one hand and on the other they are the only country in the world with positive rights.
Think about that for a second.
Anyway, Marxism is simply an earlier version of Post Modernism applied specifically to economics. Marxist came first and was specific to economics, Post Modernism is the rebranding of Marxism and applied in a general way.
So, what you are seeing is a combination of incompetent people making incompetent decisions and because they are virtually all in a Post Modernist / Marxist cult, all of their decisions are in the direction of conquor, divide and control.
It's hard to sometimes distinguish the two, but, once you start to see it you cannot ignore it. It's everywhere, even in this thread.
This isn't conspiracy. Post Modernist and Marxists are not hiding anything. They have been publishing everything out in the open since the 1800s (and may have roots even deeper in history, depends who you ask) and especially since the 1950s. If you want to dig in, start with Saul Alinskys 12 Rules for Radicals, here is a tldr:
https://bolenreport.com/saul-alinskys-12-rules-radicals/
This is all out in the open. Just read their books. Infact, their texts writings have not changed in over 100 years. Their only new inventions are in the last 50 years with the invention of feminism and then followed up with the more broadly applied invention of intersectional feminism.
Just for the record, this isn't the usual theory that 'a cabal of secret people controling the world' kind of thing. Most of this is self emergent behaviours of complex systems. There are interest groups that come in and out of these movements along the way, but as far as I can see, this is just self emergent in nature for the most part.
I don't want to go conspiracy theory, but a lot of stuff doesn't make any sense (blokes can have beards trimmed at a barbers, but women can't have eyebrows plucked), and i think people are just getting fed up of it... Hence taking the risk to go to the beach. So is it stupid? I have no idea
A conspiracy is just two people speaking in private. I used to think Alex Jones was nutty, 25 years later I now find out that he was just 10 to 20 years ahead of the curve. He was talking about the mark of the beast, people control, lock downs, pandemics in the 1990s. He was correct if not only directionaly, but in some cases to the letter as we are seeing in your examples and some of the links posted in the last few pages.
I now don't beleive that conspiracists exist. There are only humans that specualate honestly about what they beleive (Alex Jones), and then there are out and out liars that are out to make money (flat earthers, televengalists, etc). If you know what to look for, you can spot them a mile away.
Lastly, please note that I cannot watch Alex Jones. I like his energy and I like that he beleives his own bullshit, but I can only watch him through 2nd and 3rd party references. I finally figured out why that is, when he was young he suffered brain damage (it's in the first minute of the clip):
