>fucking up the world's economy and the youth for two decade because of a flu that mainly kill the gigaold boomer rentier class and a few terminally ill people who wouldve died 6 month later anyway
While rightoids made a clown show of the whole situation, as usual, with their antivaxx conspiratard bullshit featuring Favci killing one trillion goyim with MNRA black magic, i still don't understand what was the rational behind the lockdowns and demolishing the supply chain. How does the bourgeoisie profit from it? Why even third world war torn shithole like Lebanon or Sudan did it? Why did China?
It felt like all of our elites became insane.

Could it simply be a brief victory of the pharmaceutical industry over the rest? I don't know if anyone or how many people got rich from this but maybe investment into the industry hit an all time high during the peak of Covid. Why exactly they managed to convince so many people of enacting their lockdown policies or who invested in them at the time I don't know.

Lock downs and forced quarantining happened in previous outbreaks of disease throughout history. It's not anything new really. Maybe they overreacted a bit but it was worse in the past.

Outbreaks actually killed a gorillon people back then, not just the old and already ill.

Did COVID lockdowns really hurt the wealth of the capitalist class?

Because COVID is highly contagious and an enormous amount of people were at risk of dying, including even a large percentage of people who were not immuno-compromised or elderly. The financial loss of as many as 2 million deaths in the US was more substantial than the effects of the lockdown.

If you had a bad time in quarantine that’s your own fault, be either less boring or less neurotic

Was lockdown really that bad for people? I still had to go to work during covid so nothing changed for me.

It was really terrible for people who lived alone in a tiny appartment or renting a maid's room. Young people being trapped with abusive parents also. I had several friend in Paris who became almost insane from it.
Otherwise it was fine. It's the economic consequence that we are still dealing with that are bad. Nothing ever came back to pre-covid level. Employment (which was already bad), prices, the quality of most services, even lots of food products have become bad.
It also made a quarter of the population insane.

My dad died

So it sucked for people who already had sucky lives. It was probably going to suck for them no matter what happened.

Quarantine showed we can reverse climate change

>>2819191
I lived alone in a studio apartment in a basement during covid and it still wasn't that bad for me. I did get to go to work but people acted like they got sealed in their apartments like china
