Lockdowns have never made any sense on health grounds -- you quarantine the sick, not the healthy, and shutting down the economy has enormous flow-on adverse health effects (suicide, untreated cancers, depression, alcohol abuse, domestic and child abuse going through the roof to name a few). So they never made sense. But what if the virus was released FOR the lockdowns?
I read about the collapse of the shadow banking system that happened in September 2019 some time ago, and there were many warnings at that time of imminent, global, and catastrophic economic collapse of the whole system. I just found this article that explains it well: A Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Systemic Collapse and Pandemic Simulation - The Philosophical Salon. I searched for reference to it on this site but couldn't find any, and it really does make sense of the whole thing.
I'm no economist and can't pretend to fully understand it but if I have it right the system was about to collapse and the repo market jump in interest rates from around 2% to 10% in a week was the trigger for the printing of hundreds of billions of dollars a week in the US (and elsewhere as well). The overheating economy had to be shut down to prevent a complete meltdown.
This leads to the question: did it work? Has the economic meltdown been averted? Has it just been slowed down or put off for a while? Obviously the ethics of killing millions of people with a virus and vaccines (and withholding treatments etc) are about what you'd expect from people who think of ordinary people in the same way agribusiness thinks of chickens... but what do you all think? Did they release the virus so they could have global lockdowns? Is that part of the great reset plan in action? Obviously other agendas have come into play, such as profiteering from Big Pharma. And the nazis and communists have discovered how much power they have when people can be made to be constantly afraid. But what can we do? Apart from doing what we're all doing and preparing and basically divorcing ourselves from the system, what else can we do? Is it going to be possible to get intelligent capitalism back and get rid of this corporate capitalist monstrosity?

The mainstream narrative should therefore be reversed: the stock market did not collapse (in March 2020) because lockdowns had to be imposed; rather, lockdowns had to be imposed because financial markets were collapsing. With lockdowns came the suspension of business transactions, which drained the demand for credit and stopped the contagion. In other words, restructuring the financial architecture through extraordinary monetary policy was contingent on the economy’s engine being turned off. Had the enormous mass of liquidity pumped into the financial sector reached transactions on the ground, a monetary tsunami with catastrophic consequences would have been unleashed.
