Reopening

Extensions in restrictions aren't just affecting the business owners, since
the customers end up
donating to a lot of businesses to help keep them from closing.
Example:
The
extensions in
restrictions and trying to keep
reopening from happening is fucking with a lot of people's lives, people who are not sick and have taken the virus seriously.
Machiavellian reopening
by Solid Mantis on Feb 25, 2021 07:22:33
A
reopening that makes people feel a sense of
morale boost, like they are the ones benefitting from stores, businesses, and restaurants not being shut down anymore. Somebody starts a
petition and all of a sudden everything is open again, yet nobody is questioning whether the one who started the petition might have had something to do with everything shutting down in the first place.
Example:
The girl was the one to start the
petition that reopened everything. That is a lot of power for one person to have. Wouldn't it take the same kind of power to have everything
shut down as well? It seems more like a Machiavellian reopening than a true
morale boost.
