Angie is right. This was of course predictable. The neoliberals/liberals (really the same these days) were always going to use Covid as a pretext to yet more austerity, and we are seeing exactly that. The โ€œcompletely safeโ€ mantra is really (in the non-propaganda-infected) about reducing public services and the provisioning of public goods while making a show of protecting that public.

Expect a lot more of this, all completely and fully backed by the โ€œcompletely safeโ€-screeching quadruple-masking prison-country-loving pod-craving bug-eating lockdown-lifer (neo)libs.
