I agree that no one really knows what's going on.
Â
And in a sense, I'm ok with that. Provided that's what they tell us. After all, they're only human.
Personally, I am thoroughly fed up with politicians forever speaking with authority when they're flying by the seat of their pants. It's ok not to know the full story. It's OK not to know exactly what to do, but don't try pulling the wool over my eyes by telling me you know exactly what's what when you clearly don't.
I'm far more trusting of a politician who can admit when they are simply doing the best they can, instead of try to BS me.
Even more so when they actually admit they did something wrong: I have waaaay more faith in someone who knows when they screwed up as it means they realise they can learn from mistakes.
Â
And please don't try to treat me like a child by not giving me the whole picture: if they tell me what they know about the situation, I can evaluate their decisions based on that.
No compulsory masks here beyond hospitals. Hand cleaner at the entrance of most stores.
One good thing is I think the world has become more aware of personal hygiene: more washed hands, fewer careless sneezes = fewer cases of the common cold.
