Thanks, Russell. I think I’m going to repeat what you say but in my own embittered way.

Civilizations rot from within. So do people. Criminality requires to be taken seriously via courts and possibly lamp posts and ropes.

However, the psychological nudge units are trying to lessen the crimes (and benefiting from them again!) by attempting to replace the reality of criminality with the concept of ‘mistakes.’ Making mistakes is something we can all relate to. It is human, inevitable, and, when properly understood, can be the precursor to wisdom and, as such, may well be forgivable.

However, the malign, targeted criminality that gave rise to the slaughter was aided and abetted by the perennial shallowness of thought and actions that give rise to ‘mistakes.’ The shallowness galls and needs addressing before any thoughts of forgiveness. Without the ability to understand the genesis of the ‘mistakes’ and fully own the consequences, any apology is an additional insult emphasising the inherent superficiality. But, of course, shallowness and unawareness are the default positions of most bureaucracies and will be vigorously defended.

Btw, those medically, psychologically, socially, and financially harmed by the ‘pandemic’ response policies, plus the relatives of the dead victims, should be consulted for their views whilst waiting to be generously compensated.

"...likely figuring that the only way to distract from massive malfeasance is to create an even larger crisis, much as 9-11 wiped the Pentagon being unable to account for $2 trillion off the news cycle overnight."

We really shouldn't expect anything less from these cretins at this point.
