Techie writer by day, friendly doomer by night (with a little drumming, bass, and horror movies to maintain sanity). Also happily married and a pet dad. If you think the covid pandemic is over, you probably won't like my posts.
Well said, but anti-DEI gained a foothold from the vast majority of people ignoring the ongoing pandemic (yes, we're still in one as per the WHO) and accepting normalization of eugenics as a tradeoff for "normalcy" (ie individual comfort).

No ventilation or testing
Because nobody sees the risk
He'll have to step out early
Will say it's to keep me safe

Also public health: "Covid is over. LC is rare. We're post pandemic. Vax and relax.
