Contagion 2020

[Shuto Makino]

Framing as culture wars and doing stupid meme shit like whipping out glasses at the press conference will play well with a base that's already predisposed to read everything through the lens of culture wars. The broader public will be outraged for a bit, but it'll be totally forgotten by the 2024 general election, when stupid cunts in England will vote in a Tory majority again after the Sun convince them it's that or Stalin Starmer. This will be helped when Sunak announces something half decent in the next couple of weeks, which he should've done in March, and fucking idiot centrist pundits wank themselves into a frenzy over how statesmanlike he is.

Finding it difficult to get angry over this because it's been obviousfor ages that this government holdsthe general public in contempt. The only surprising part is that people are surprised.

The snake has cultivated a story on the day he went back to work to help disprove his “herd immunity” strategy   

Revolution really can't come quickly enough for these rats.

Seems i was right when I said he was just going to flood the system with lies. They'll all get disproved but nowhere near as many people will see the truth and he's controlled the narrative for everyone else. In fact with the massive lies about Barnard Castle being so easily pushed back against, hardly anyone will see the responses to the myriad other lies.

They're fucked

Currently watching ITV and this woman from Shropshire has got me seething.

She says in 1 sentence the the Cummings all showed symptoms and were within their rights to get away from the toxic environment in London. I mean wtf. Tories are so blind and stupid.

Sweden second place. We've got a higher ratio than a country who haven't locked down. Wonder if folk will still be championing the Swedish government after this

Sweden one is interesting.

Morally wrong but we won't really know just how bad/good it is until we see if there is a second wave and how their economy copes v economies that have shut down.

Might be a case of short term pain for long term gain whereas we have the worst of both worlds.

Given the shit show down south over the bank holiday with beaches rammed and thousands wandering about - there willbe a second wave of infections in 7 -14 days.
