In 2019, there were no lockdowns, no restrictions to life, no threat of a two tiered society between vaxxed and unvaxxed people with a draconian Covid passport, no Orwellian advertisements designed to guilt trip, saying “Look Him in the eye and tell him blah blah”, mental health was finally being spoken about only for Covid to take over and suddenly mental health has become stigmatised as being selfish, setting the awareness of such issues back by at least 20 years in just 18 months, no fear-mongering, no suspicion between people as to whether they had a flu or cold or not, normal interactions, no telling children that they’re potential granny killers……I could go on all day, but yes while things in 2019 weren’t perfect they were a darn sight better than the mess we’re in now.
