Whilst I’ll never be like those who said the dead were crisis actors or they just added Covid to every day deaths, the more I think back I have to conclude we were spun some form of shite. Something existed and it ripped through the world, but I look at some facebook memories from the time and wonder how we ever got to those depths, and how more didn’t comply.
If it happened again I think the majority would tell the powers that be to fuck off. I remember going for a pint and had to wear a mask at the bar. Then go back to my table and take it off whilst people crossed paths.
It was all very fucking bizarre.
