Killing small businesses has long been a wet dream for democrats. 2020 helped them a lot in that aspect. Democrats don't want small businesses because they want only a handful of large corporations to control an entire market so the dems and corporations can collude on things like vaccine mandates.

The Government lost its fricking mind. Fauci scared the frick out of a bunch of gullible dummies and it was monumentally fricking stupid. The shite they did was insane. Shutting down parks and beaches? Pure stupidity.

I’m sure I forgot a lot.
Quarantines for “close contact”
Canceled NCAA basketball tournament
No fans allowed at games
Box stores closing doors and allowing only a few in at a time
The great toilet paper rush
Masks for students and teachers
I’m not saying Covid isn’t real, it very much is, I know a few who passed away from it, but the shutting down of American life was a huge government overreach that should never be allowed again.
Stay home if your scared or sick, but don’t shut down the world. The strong survive.

EVERY single thread on the OT was about Covid. You might have 1 or 2 threads that was non-Covid related. But man, that was depressing. I'm still pissed that Chicken never made a Covid board.
There was one on TexAgs and it was miserable.
I will say it was a bit of a honeypot exercise. All the people who bought into the covid regime hook, line, and sinker did keep most of their ridiculousness there instead of the general, political, and religious boards.

Thinking about what went on back then still makes my blood boil to this day. Fortunately, I never had to get vaccinated or miss work, but the people responsible for the shutdowns should be held responsible.
I’m shocked that no Republican candidates are talking about what the Dem party did to force shutdowns and cause people to lose businesses. Not to mention how the Dem ran teachers unions closed schools and did generational harm to kids. Plus, they forced people to miss things like funerals and didn’t allow them to visit dying loved ones in the hospital.
They must not be allowed to escape the consequences of their actions.

Found it extremely ironic they made this about public health but close the gyms for everyone to get fatter and unhealthier
They shut down gyms and churches, but allowed abortion clinics and liquor stores to stay open. It was simply criminal.

No one can explain how it’s safer at Walmart or Home Depot than it is at Ted’s hardware or Tim’s meat market.

Promoting social distancing by forcing every person entering and leaving the building to go through one entrance.

Part of the move to technocracy.
Amazon grew, tech companies grew. Its required to move on from the current default state of liberty.
Constitutional limits on govt power causes BigGov people to utilize massive corporations with little competition to do their authoritarian nastiness.
Technocracy is a workaround to socialism. Centrally planned, with Massive corporations doing the governments authoritarian duties.

One way aisles in Walmart
Outdoor dining in an indoor tent outside the restaurant because indoor dining was banned in big cities ( what the frick sense does this make)
Bars closing at 12 instead of 1am because that last hour.. oh baby.. covid will not be a threat if we shut down an hour early
I was given a sheet filled out deeming me an essential worker so that I could pass through potential national guard or military/police checkpoints in order to get to work

Many people willingly handed over their freedom to big daddy government without even questioning it in the slightest. Embarrassing.
People lost their careers over vaccines that are now admittedly pseudo science.

We had the kids getting haircuts by our local lady in the driveway so she could get some income.
Dems absolutely want to kill small business.
