Fauci was a major source of the misinformation, but Democrats and their allies helped spread and enforce it.
Social media was pressured to suppress information that did not fit the Democratic narrative. This very site fell directly in line.
Businesses were shuttered unnecessarily. Children were kept out of school far longer than necessary. People who questioned any of it were mocked, censored or accused of endangering others.
The list goes on.
The question is why did Democrats embrace and spread so much misinformation?
Some were undoubtedly frightened and simply believed what they were told. But I believe there may also have been a deeper motive perhaps not always fully conscious.
The shutdowns weakened the economy, increased dependence on government checks and expanded demand for government programs. That outcome fit perfectly with the political philosophy of those who believe government should play a much larger role in people's lives.
Why were so many Democrats determined to keep everything shut down for so long, even as the damage became increasingly obvious?
I am not claiming that every Democrat participated in some coordinated conspiracy. I am asking whether Democratic leaders recognized that the crisis created an opportunity to expand government dependence and then exploited that opportunity, despite the hardship it caused.
Conspiracy theories are not automatically true, but neither are they automatically false.

I had high hopes for you, you've let me down.
It's seasonal, in the winter you bring the bait back and store it
My guess is visitor lives in the north where the lakes freeze. You also prepare the boat for winter.
If you want redemption, why would I know this?
