Coronavirus and Its Possible Dystopian Consequences
Here’s the Reality: In this, the upside-down, other
side of the mirror world America is fast becoming Orwell’s 1984... Across the
nation, detention centers are releasing thousands of case-hardened criminals to
the streets. From a face-tattooed social deviant in Florida “previously
arrested on 35 charges who murdered a rival the day after he was released”...
to a violent offender who “attacked his girlfriend's grandmother after being
released for $50.” Yes, the same COVID-infested, dangerous jails that
they're emancipating inmates from. Keep
in mind that many of these released inmates already have COVID-19 and walk
among us. Instead of spreading cheer they may be spreading the contagion.
Yet, even as law enforcement officers across the
nation let these convicted criminals loose, they're ordered to conduct sting
operations on social distancing wrong doers... A paddleboarder alone in
the ocean is chased down by police boats... An Idaho mother is cuffed and dragged
off a playground in front of her two children... Two
women were arrested by Laredo, Texas undercover police officers posing as customers
for the crime of running a nail salon out of their house and now face a $2,000
fine and 180 days in jail... We can only wonder at the dangers law
enforcement personnel face from the twenty-something doing yoga by herself, and
dare I say, not wearing her protective mask while practicing specific yoga bodily
postures.
As Covid-19 went on its relentless gallop across
America and for that matter, the globe, it spread with it the fear that
governments and corporations would use it as a pretext to infringe on the
freedoms of citizens with new dystopian-sounding monitoring methods. As could
be expected, Artificial Intelligence (AI) enterprises/groups have developed video
surveillance systems that can tell if we’re abiding by social distancing rules.
It’s the latest example of the pandemic inspiring what some might view as ominous
technology. In communities across America, drones are now being used by local government
officials warning people to disperse, go home, and stay there... or face
legal consequences.... “Fines are up to $1000. You have been advised.”
Is it a stretch to now envision
the coming consequences of Local, State and Federal government over-reach,
totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and authoritarian regimentation of all
persons and behaviors within a not too distant dystopian society? Is a
heretofore New World Order about to become a reality? Has America gone crazy or is this just a Mad, Mad, Mad World we now live in?
Oh, and by the way, you wouldn’t want to know what happens if America’s upside-down,
other side of the mirror world you’re in gets broken. Let’s just leave it at
that.

The First Casualty of War
“The first casualty of war is the truth”
also should be applied to pandemics based on the manic coverage in most modes
of medium. A cursory review of today’s various media modes shows nothing but
alarmist nonsense from news outlets which are nothing more than rumor mills. When
President Trump stopped travel from China, the alarmist media said he was
racist and overreacting. In late March, President Trump mentioned the promising
effects of an anti-malarial drug, that in part is an ingredient found in aquarium
cleaners, that shows some promise in treating people with COVID-19. A man heard
the story and drank his fish tank cleaner and died. To be clear – aquarium
cleaner is not a drug. It is poison to anyone who swallows it. How did
the media respond? They blamed Trump for the man’s death. The drug the
President was talking about is an important medication to those with certain
auto-immune disorders and possibly for those with COVID-19. It’s still being
tested in several areas, and along with some anti-viral drugs might help those
with the worst cases. Caution: Don’t believe everything you hear and always read
the directions. And then there is the progressive media that attacks President
Trump for his desire to get America back to work. This same media wants to keep
America shut down to keep more people watching than accepting the reality that
virus pandemics end. Ask yourself an important question: During COVID-19 crisis,
who has been more correct, the left leaning media or President Trump? Did not President
Trump form a group in January to respond to the crisis? He did. Did not the Democrat
controlled alarmist media ignore the response and instead focused on
impeachment? They did. There really is hope that this crisis is starting to end
regardless of the drivel by the Left's media lapdogs.
