Elonic role reversal
Holocauster Inslee has taken the next grimly predictable step, another scene in his lethal mass-murdering Security Theater. Again normal people can see through it. Again we can't do a fucking thing about it.

The worst part of this grotesque play is that nobody can sleep properly. We're all waiting for the next jackboot to fall. Sleep is crucial for immunity. Everyone is getting grumpy and distracted. Only the methies are happy because the cops are also on shutdown. So the methies are running wild, adding to the fear and confusion. THIS IS ALL PERFECTLY INTENTIONAL. Every coup and revolution includes releasing and weaponizing criminals.

Big question: Who invented this "distancing" and "shutdown" shit? It's a brand new idea, never used in previous epidemics.

As always, we're inventing nonsensical ANTI-SOLUTIONS, guaranteed to MAKE THE PROBLEM WORSE. We're ignoring a hundred years of real public health techniques. The first step in an honest quarantine is to stop travel. We still haven't done it. Instead we shut down everything else, which was NEVER DONE IN PREVIOUS EPIDEMICS.

We're copying Elon. He ignores all experience in both directions. He refuses to do things that are known to work, and insists on doing things that are known to fail.

Uncharacteristically, Elon himself is taking the opposite vector in this mess. He seems to be on the sane side, though maybe he's just doing it to irritate the screechy short-selling fairies who were the earliest adopters of the current Holocaust.

Later: The US death count started accelerating AFTER the total shutdown. Before the shutdown it was increasing slowly. Post hoc doesn't prove anything by itself, but when X comes before Y you need to ASK AND EXAMINE whether X is causing Y. Especially when X is a procedure that we've NEVER TRIED BEFORE AND HAVE NO FUCKING REASON TO THINK IT WILL HELP AND PLENTY OF REASONS TO THINK IT WILL HURT.
