What good/positive habits have you taken away from your time in Covid lockdown and kept up since then? (lemmy.world)

For example, I have kept the habit of washing my hands with soap, first thing when I come home.

Is there something good in keeping people locked in their homes?

I have improved my abilities to distinguish between good and evil, between who the real enemy is and learned how to navigate through a life full of compliant persons who don't understand what they comply to!

I personally learned a lot!

Oh and I ditched a lot of "compliant friends" too...

Hope we have learned something useful for the "Next plandemic"! 😉

Yes, that's why we did it.

The question is whether the lockdowns had any benefits.

Pointing out the downsides doesn't really respond to that.

Appropo of nothing... I'm slightly amused at the advise against parroting in a reply that says "Do your own research"

Huh I wonder if covid also causes any sort of mental health disorders. Wonder if it causes any health disorders. Wonder if it causes any death disorders.

People were stressed, but it also prevented them from fucking dying, so I would say worth it. Also, you really missed the point of OP's post. This is thread is supposed to be filled with positive stuff. Everyone already knows the pandemic sucked.
