There was huge amounts of propaganda during Covid and I say that as someone who had the vaccine.

The scenes of death were bad of course, but also there was propaganda around that too - never ever have we had a 'death count'. We also watched in real time as those deaths were misrepresented to cause fear.

I Still remember the videos coming out of CHina of people just dropping dead from Covid in the street and how that literally never ever happened anywhere else in the world at any point since.

There was a lot of weirdness around Covid and a lot of lies or manipulation, IMO.

This is what I mean by misremembering. Nurses were wrapped in trash bags trying to protect themselves because everywhere was on it's arse. Families saying goodbye over tablets, temp hospitals being set up.

You can call the claim of invulnerability, propaganda, and I can sort of get on board with that, but without that vaccine things would have been a lot worse for a lot longer.

Boris bragging about shaking hands with everyone was propaganda based on British exceptionalism, and yet the only thing classed as propaganda around covid, is a vaccine that worked.

It's just misdirection.
