People are unhappy. Yes, but not enough to stop this tyranny! - Well, I better behave otherwise I'm going to be punished. - FEAR! - Fear leads to the sheep syndrome - that deep-deep social disease which besets us today. They keep to the narrative - MUST wear a mask - MUST keep the safe 2-meter distance - police enforced.
Today and during the last few days new "measures" - restrictions of freedom imposed by governments for reasons of "public health security", i. e. preventing the spread of covid infections - have been tightened throughout Europe. Literally, these treacherous governments say, "we have to tighten the screws". Seriously. WTF - who do they think they are? Servants of the people who elected them and who pay them. This is high treason. But people take it without asking too many questions, some complaints but not strong enough... we are living in the midst of the Sheep Syndrome.
They - these supposedly people friendly governments - call them "measures",
a euphemism for lockdown - sounds better in the ears of a public tired of continuous and more and more repressions. This second, in some countries even third lockdown, includes further business closing, more sever control on home-office work, police-enhanced social distancing, mask wearing, no indoor group activities, only 5 people may meet in an apartment... and, and, and.
