Do you miss the COVID pandemic in your country? Yes I do sometimes

>>213433025 (OP)
It was the greatest happening of this century

>>213433025 (OP)
Hell no

I was hyped up at first because it was finally happening but got utterly psychologically demolished due to dogshit online studies and the utter chaos going to study in the hospital wearing a trashbag and seeing all the tired and angry staff as well as patients. Started drinking heavily after.

I enjoyed walking around listening to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGjIVfUUx_w&t=6s
while everyone was walking around with masks

>>213433025 (OP)
Well it was fun but they put the lid on it a tad bit early just because people were starting to make lists and organize at the local level without using mobile phones.

>Started drinking heavily after.
Did you stop ?

>>213433219
Only recently, 5 fucking years on the liquid jew. Two weeks sober.

>>213433314
Nice, have faith in yourself anon, you'll make it.

I got locked out of my country for a year so no. Arguably the economy and state of things after covid is worst. Atleast during covid there was social order in the cities.

The last 5 years has been really aids. I am ready for a brighter era to begin.

>>213433334
I am petrified how much it just blurred and fastforwarded the years, it only felt like 6 months. The damage done and how easy it was to just loose control. Never had problems with drinking but I just decided to relax with a prized liquor bottle in 2020 November and then poof, never stopped, would get piss drunk after work or study in the evening every single day.

>>213433424
>it only felt like 6 months
I was sober and it feels like that too

it's over

>>213433455
Well at least it is not utterly over at this point.

>>213433424
You made some awesome threads while drunk

>>213433459
The people who created the webpedo image format need to be soaked in bacon grease and put inside a room full of pitbulls.

>>213433025 (OP)
I miss having the outdoors all to myself.
I don't miss having to worry about sickly relatives.

>>213433499
Was it even worth it at this point?

>>213433541
>I miss having the outdoors all to myself.
Everybody where I live decided "fuck the police I am gonna walk 10 kms everyday" and it was funny to bump into everyone from the village in the woods

What actually happened to COVID btw?

We had a locked border, daily press conferences with the prime minister on TV and a hotline to dob offenders in.

Now it would be as if it never exsisted. No one wears masks or really even talkes about it. Kinda odd that.

>>213433679
Simple. The ones more susceptible to it have died and the rest just got immunity through collective sharing of the disease or vaccines. Now it just is just another "bug" floating in the pile, nothing new or special.

>>213433679
>What actually happened to COVID btw?
It was transformed into debt

>>213433770
I would like to clarify the dying part and add those who had a life threatening response to the virus, they were the ones cloging the hospitals and were brought back from the brink with the tools we use, there are none of those now.

>>213433679
The whole 'crisis' being memoryholed that fast is just more proof that the whole thing was never a crisis and more an exercise in how much control the ruling class can grab under the guise of 'safety'. That type of shit never stopped, just take a look at the UK.

>>213433025 (OP)
The most depressing period of my life. I was shamed by society, looked suspiciously at by Asian business owners doubting I had proof of vaccination, kicked out of stores, avoided on public transport by trembling pregnant women for not wearing a mask, staired at by cops when going for a /nightwalk/ after the curfew, in a constant state of fear that vaccines would become mandatory and the New World Order would be implemented, had to watch on as children were illegally vaccinated without their parents requests at schools, etc. A truly evil time. And the Australian people, save those heroic few, did nothing, just accepted the authoritarian laws. A truly sad time. I will never forget it.

>COVID
comfy staying home, getting paid not to work, normies can't go clubbing, vidya and anime, no immigration
>post-COVID
inflation, rising costs, record levels of immigration (mostly jeets), AIslop taking over

Yes, yes I do

>>213433913
the anglo world is terrifying

>>213433913
you sound like a whiny /pol/tard

>>213433913
You think this is bad? Wait until some real pozz hits the market with at least let say 10% mortallity rate there will be dead people on the streets and soyciety collapsing. Chinkflu for all intents and purposes was just a piss in the wind. But we somehow survived black death I hope ancient fags aren't as wise as us but it would be a stretch to claim so.

>>213433679
over here the entire crisis ended on 24th february 2022 when russia invaded ukraine
we mass accepted the refugees from ukraine with no restrictions whatsoever and no care for the dangers of the disease especially coming from a corrupt country with shitty healthcare

>>213434015
I noticed the same pattern. I even made joke threads thanking russia for ending the pandemic.

>>213433025 (OP)
No because nothing happened here.
>no lockdowns
>no quarantine
>still had to go to work
>pub every weekend
>"wash ya hands and keep muh distance" like we always do anyway

>>213434085
Yeah there was a lot of heated debate here about your model of containing it.

>>213434085
This.
Remember how /int/ kept making fun of Sweden and how we were all gonna die?
We won.

>>213434103
>>213434139
Yeah we started out badly due to the senior homes not practicing proper care but after that it was pretty much nothing for us.

>>213433424
>I am petrified how much it just blurred and fastforwarded the years, it only felt like 6 months.
That's just you getting older

>>213433025 (OP)
>Work in a canteen
>Canteen had to close due to covid
>Still receive 90% of my payment
>9 months of free payment from a company while doing nothing at all
I was heaven.

>>213434213
I know but alcohol fastforwards it both objectively and subjectively.

Hell yeah. I ate the best home cooked food, I worked like 4 hours a day, house chores wouldn't pile up, I slept enough, I picked up a few new hobbies, and I was probably at my healthiest both physycally and mentally. Compared to that my current state is dogshit.

>>213434323
It was either that or alcoholism.

>>213433965
sheeple just happy to bend over and let the government stick anything in you.

>>213433025 (OP)
No I don't, it really hurt me and you are a sphincter boy for missing it.

>>213433679
The western establishments now subsist on crises, real or manufactured. Whether it is "terrorists", financial collapse or a sickness, they will try and expand control of consumption, discipline labour/stabilise-reduce wages and justify war with opponents who still maintain primarily a production capitalism midel instead of the finacial speculation paradigm of the West

Felt like a happening that just passed us by, sweden stod on the other side of the wibdow and looked on, felt cheated out a good happening desu

Yeah I was working 40% and got paid 80%

>>213433679
>>213434799
By the way, if you things can't get any worse, we still have a "food shortage crisis" they've been working on, whether in the West or abroad or both, to test the waters with drug-foods and artificial meat.

>>213434819
You go and shake Anders Tägnell's hand right now you moron.

>>213433025 (OP)
The only thing I miss about it was that the JobCentre stopped bothering me for 18 months, and I didn't have to attend any meetings or anything. Plus, they gave me extra money every month.

>>213433025 (OP)
That shit unironically ruined my life.

I miss having something happen, it was comfy. Although in Sweden the world could literally be ending outside your window and your employer would expect you to come in on time

that shit unironically fixed my life
