re: Aside from the vax what was the dumbest thing that you saw happen in the lockdowns?

Might be unrelated to the COVID crap, but I think this was meant as both a distraction and a new divisive element from the agitprop media:

Telling the nation that white supremacists were attacking Asians nationwide, and trying to build that as a national story for a couple of weeks. When it became obvious that 99.999999% of attacks against Asians were from people of African ancestry, the story vanished.
But Asians started and promoted their own anti-hate groups in response, and those are still around.
