what’s the opposite of unforeseen consequences ? completely foreseeable consequences? if SAGE can’t even predict the obvious , forcing kids to stay inside leads to inactivity, what are they for?

I can’t dwell on the stupidity and madness of it too long or I will get depressed. Then I am no good to anyone else. And the best thing we can be right now is useful to others.

There’s a lot wisdom in that observation. We’ve been isolated so long, and we’ve had too much opportunity to dwell on our problems. Not surprisingly levels of depression and anxiety are way up.
One of the best ways to put your troubles in perspective, and to dispel anxiety, is to help others. It takes you out of yourself and puts your own problems in perspective.

Wrong! The Brave Truckers in Canada, the brave Doctors and people on Youtube, and so on – they are Fighting. They are not whimpering under their bed in abject fear and being depressed – That is being no good to anyone. Good people doing nothing, looking on the bright side instead, that is when the bad wins.

Why Twins?
Is this Autocorrect’s view of twits?

I think that when I said “twits” it was “pending approval.” Since my posts are so important, indeed essential, I couldn’t risk it. I compromised but only to share with the UnHerd crowd.
Completely agree with you.

The opposite to unforeseen consequences?

INTENDED CONSEQUENCES

“young people whose morbidity, life expectancy and life chances have been impacted not by Covid, but our response to it.”

Come on – the Response to covid was 1000X more harmful than the disease! 1000X More!

Dr McCullough says, under oath, that using medicines we have, and treatments, 95% of all who died of Covid could have been saved! Ninety Five Percent! Using the combination of the Vaccine and then NO early care, but just hospital once critical illness was reached, killed 19 people for every one it saved compared to early treatments with re-purposed medicines, vitamins, steroids, antihistamines, and nasal/pharynx wash!!!!!!!

Bobby Kennedy, Dr Malone, and thousands of other doctors agree. These deaths, this disaster, is on the response – not the virus. Go back to Dr Bret Weinstein for hours and hours of super intelligent explanations of how this is the case. ( he has been here 3 times, on Unherd) https://www.youtube.com/c/BretWeinsteinDarkHorse

Idea for TV show. Take all members of SAGE to some remote island location, release them, and then unleash a coachload of fat kids to hunt them down. Call it Lard of the Fries.

I’m sickened by how awful and how predictable all of this is. Sickened. Just sickened.

There is literally nothing being done about this. I know that it should be partly the job of parents to moderate boundaries for diet & activity but there is no interest from Government. Poor health both mental & physical, poor prospects, and a future of debt ridden lives for all children & young people who will live here, work here and get absolutely no investment or interest from anyone in government. What the hell are they doing anyway apart from obsessing over their f****ing reputations?

Stop being a fuc*ing nanny. Let parents decide what their kids eat. People’s kids aren’t the state’s kids. Leave them alone
