  • Pandemic amnesty

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to AARON THOMAS on Wednesday, November 02, 2022 17:59:00
    I was just seeing that the Media wants a "Pandemic Amnesty".

    "We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID." -- The Atlantic.

    Are they talking about amnesty for the media or for elected officials?

    Where I saw it, the Education Secretary was advocating it for herself and
    the administration she serves.

    Joe needs amnesty for saying "If ya take the vaccine you won't catch covid." That lie has likely cost lives. I don't think Trump will have much trouble with "some day this thing is gonna disappear" because it was too vague for anyone to bank on.

    They are basically treating it like it has disappeared. I work for a state government that pretty much shut everything down. Now they (the appointees
    but not necessarily the governor who appointed them) want us all to
    act as if it never happened. Every week or two they come up with some
    excuse for us all to get together and mingle. Reminds me of the COVID
    parties that people supposedly had and that our governor famously frowned
    upon -- "You can't be doing that!"
