This is a truly weird take. Are you implying that people thought the pandemic would be permanent?
No, I'm saying that people who say things like "it's time to move on" or "let it go" are part of the same group that wants a "Pandemic Amnesty" as a way to bury the fact that they got caught up in the hysteria and fear-mongering, and that they also advocated for draconian lockdowns.
I'd imagine these fools who got caught up in the hysteria would be the same type of people to make false accusations during the Salem Witch Trials era in New England....
This is why "let it go" is a dangerous prospect, because we'd be likely to repeat the same type of mass hysteria again.
And no, we certainly didn't
"ALL" get played, only gullible people got played... What's worse is that by supporting the lockdowns, they had a hand in the supply chain disruptions that's causing skyrocketing inflation. Many people today are experiencing extreme hardships because of the naive and foolish actions of people who bought into the hysteria pushed by the mainstream media.
So again, I must reiterate that it's simply a dangerous prospect to "let it go" and "move on"....
