Let's assume they're right.
How come it's now one crisis after another? I don't remember things being like this in the 2000s.
It is no coincidence.
They have learned that declaring a pandemic is a cheat code to curtail individual civil liberties.
Too many weak willed fools who will sacrifice liberty for a false sense of security.
The authoritarian COVID 19 "public health" response was a societal shit test that society sadly collectively failed.
It worked for Covid. If they keep doing it too frequently, even normies will revolt. (unless they release something that's actually deadly)
I think you are overestimating the intelligence of the average normie.
I fear that even another virus that has the same fatality rate as COVID would be enough for many normies to buckle down in fear.
