Israel and South Korea are democratic, not authoritarian.

@Fred_Snerd
Israel and South Korea are jokes?

I agree that this last few months have caused much of our society to regress. It has brought episodes of both the best and the worst of humanity during this time.

One thing I do disagree with your statement is that you suggest, probably unintentionally, is that the events alluded to came about as a result of the dystopia we have been experiencing. Unfortunately the attitudes and behaviors has been lying submerged in society for a long time. This pandemic period just served to throw back the covers and expose its ugly underbelly.

Getting back to work won't solve the racism and attitudes of white privilege that drive these actions. It will potentially dial down some anxiety for many, even though the world won't look the same.

@t1nick you are right, going back to work won't change a racist but it will definitely allow people to get back to having their own business to mind instead of sitting around going stir crazy and acting out unnecessarily.

@Fred_Snerd ?

Yeah it will definitely reduce the anxiety all the way around. Just what the new normal will be is going to be intetesting.

I think that Trump' denial and delay in addressing the emergence of the Corona virus had more to do with his perception of his political calculas come November. I think he didnt understand what a pandemic was or what the implications were. He's not that bright. I think that he didnt want anything to tarnish his chances at re-election. He was common knowledge that he ignored his intelligence briefings on just about everything.

@t1nick I agree.on his ignorance.. but that is an excuse... what was who, cdc and all the "experts" and the senate doing?
