We closed things down too late, this is pretty well understood.
The last lockdown was imposed when it was, essentially, because the powers that be wanted christmas retail open, and christmas day to happen, when cases were already massively on the rise. I'm not saying "it wasn't harsh enough", I'm saying that every time it's been done too late, and ramped up too slowly. It could have been shorter and well controlled had it been sooner, like it has been in other countries.
There's no need to be so incivil. Perhaps think about your own words.
No, I'm quite seriously talking about how it should have been done sooner, and if it had been, could have been shorter.
I'm sorry you're so upset about this. It's not easy on any of us and it's been handled appallingly. But there really is no need to call someone that disagrees with you a "lockdown ####" and fantasise about violence upon them.
I think you probably ought to seek some counselling if you're fantasising about violence towards others on a daily basis. What you're expressing is deeply unhealthy.
I'm not saying this as some sort of point of argument or to belittle you - it really sounds like you could use someone to talk through this with.
If you are fantasising, daily, about committing violence against people in favour of public health measures, as you said you were, please seek some sort of mental health support.
I'm calling for less locking down, but done earlier so that it can be shorter, and I'm largely talking about how it could have been done better last year. If that's enough for you to want to physically harm me, I really think you need to get that support.
