Everything we know about the human species tells us that we are (a) a social species that needs interaction with others; (b) our communication skills are only party verbal and depend on non-verbal cues like body language and facial expressions; and (c) that free expression of our thoughts and opinions make us healthier mentally. Regimes that have tried to control these things (Soviet Union, China, N. Korea, Cuba) have created a mostly insane population.
What if all the covid hysteria -- mask mandates to hide our non-verbal communication, isolation to further subdue our communication and the need for human interaction, and suppression of dissenting views -- is to tear apart the very fabric of human existence?
What if these measures are designed to strip us of our basic human nature and create an insane, stupefied population that is bereft of basic humanity toward each other? If this is so, who could be pulling these strings, and WHY?
Indeed.
This is why it was called "social distancing" and not "safe distancing" or "physical distancing".
