Ironically, the people who I've come to respect recently are the ones protesting the quarantine. Don't get me wrong they are stupid but the fact that they are protesting something they believe is wrong says a lot about the people who have been exploited by the system and did nothing about it. |

Barking up the wrong tree is either virtue-signaling, divide-and-conquered tribalism, a failure of moral courage, and/or a failure of critical-thinking skills. It's easier for most people to make pointless gestures or scapegoat certain groups than attack the root causes of their misery... and there's no strategic thinking involved.
The obvious matter for everyone with a net balance sheet less than eight figures is that small segment of society whose greed and entitlement has greatly outpaced their respect and decency towards others and the planet. The vast majority of people are too afraid of the corporate state's militaristic violence potential or too complicit in relative comfort to rock the proverbial boat. In inverted totalitarian societies, you get deplatformed or harassed at airports; in totalitarian societies, 70-some students and teachers get delivered by the police to other criminal gangs for disposal in the hills.
