Because of this i have basically lost my first year of university and i'm pretty sure i'll lose this year aswell, i'm really dissapointed that i'm probably going to lose half of what grown-ups call 'the best period of your life'.
A lot of people have died because of the holidays. For some reason many folks here decided that going to parties was okay in christmas and we're still dealing with the fallout from that. A lot of my relatives started taking this thing more seriously after the deaths though.
Last week they started vaccinating people over 90 in my town. Hope this goes somewhere.

Hang in there! I am going through the same thing, plus I am in my mid 30's going for an engineering degree. Things were already tough for me, even before the pandemic. I decided cutting down to 3/4 time would be beneficial since I cannot be on campus to get the extra help needed.
But yeah, try to find some positives. For me, it's less time commuting which is always a plus!

Family and friends effected by the vaccinations and loss of my business has made me suddenly rational and suspicious of hypocritical NGO speeches. To many conversations with coincidence theorists, corvidiots and provaxxers testing the patience.

On a cellular level. From predictions to platforms, ideologies to manifestations. The window of opportunity spoken about and the waiting for the right crisis. You only have to look around and really say what you see without falling into the partiality trap to know who is being targeted on all levels/platforms. To be able to predict anything with much foresight requires either insight that has to be given/received or requires knowledge of simple future planning, to "engineer" something requires formulas using mathmatical predictions, needed to reach the predictive (desired) results.
If the saying is true: proper planning prevents a poor perfomance, then I no longer believe in coincidences.

What do you think we should do about the virus instead of lockdowns, social distancing(which restrict freedom of movement) and vaccinations(which restrict freedom of choice) then? People are stupid. I have seen so many die because they decided to aglomerate for christmas. Our local government recently choose to prioritize the economy and 'freedom' over the containment of the virus and it has blown up in our face, to the point where the at capacity hospitals have installed security to stop ambulances from other towns dropping their sick off here.
These restrictions are necessary. I doubt governments aren't going to take advantage of them but that doesn't change the fact that they are mandatory if we don't want to live the next 10 years with covid.
edit: forgot to mention i live in brazil, where there's like 5 new variants basically spreading everywhere, so that also made things much worse. Now coming to a country near you!

I'm sorry, but it's hilarious to me that you think the powers that be need an excuse to restrict personal freedom.
The world is openly run by a small number of people who control more than half the world's wealth, they buy off governments, they already have most of us as wage slaves, and they have a huge percentage of people brainwashed enough to think that the system that makes them rich is the only possible way to live.
They don't need a virus, they've already won. And they don't need a world government, they have globalized capitalism and free trade agreements. It's all there in the open.
PS- a friend of mine lost both her father and cousin to COVID-19. Neither was particularly old.
