Whenever people and the mainstream media talk about "The trauma of COVID" they always mean the lockdowns and not the... you know... millions of deaths.

Well I have trauma about the deaths. I have trauma about the way our society was manipulated into sacrificing a huge chunk of the population with a smile and a wave, and how we just don't talk about it.

This same society still expects you to be horrified by the violence of 9/11 or whatever when the US alone was experiencing a 9/11 level of death every day and the disease is still killing, we just don't bother recording the spread anymore. What the fuck is wrong with people?!

I literally get (for lack of a better word) triggered when people talk about how hard it was to have to have to wear a mask or to not get a haircut or some selfish bullshit. Or when they act as though their kids remote learning for a while ruined them or something. It's all so petty. They just don't give a shit. They'd kill millions for a haircut. It makes my heart sink, my eyes glaze and I start dissociating.

Imagine if this was the blitzkrieg, and instead of going to bomb shelters people were just like "I'm sick of hearing about these bombings, I'm just going to pretend they're not happening and leave it up to fate." And then the bomb shelters are all closed and even the people who still wanted to take shelter are left to fend for themselves. What madness would have that been if they had done that during WW2? Dragging people into the street to be bombed?

I don't care if you were sick of lockdowns or restrictions! Fighting a pandemic should have been like fighting a war, we should have been doing everything we could to survive!

I am scared of these people. These brainwashed puppets. These eugenicists. If they can do this, well... it makes me feel surrounded by monsters. Like I can't trust anyone.

They have zero awareness of the huge Christmas covid spike because no expert officially told them to worry. No media said they should care. So it literally does not exist.

Yet they all did have it over Christmas and gave it to me and my partner and since we test, we know. In their mind they just had a bit of a cold, no worries in coming to Christmas dinner with family that is high risk. My partner got very sick and was told last week that he now has diabetes. My longcovid stuff got so much worse. They fully think my pots symptoms and such are just in my head I am sure and they don't have to see the daily struggle. Talking about it is fully stigmatized so they don't have to hear about it either.

I have posted a few links to our family chat from time to time:

Hospital statistics that still do exist that show how the numbers in the last 6 months were so much higher than ever before during the pandemic.

Wastewater chart showing the huge wave over Christmas to justify some caution.

Statistics that show how far more people have died in the last two years than the two before.

Scientific info on how it is not just a respiratory virus and that one can be asymptomatic or have something like a headache and it can still be covid.

What longcovid is. I have it, my partner does. Despite all the vaccines and precautions. I am terrified of the next time I get it.

That masks work.

But they were told on 2022 that masks only protect other people, that covid is just a cold and is getting milder and that vaccination saved us all and this is where they are stuck. Despite their own bodies deteriorating from repeat infection. It is super difficult to come to terms with.
