My Official Review Of The Pandemic

Sisyphus 55 | October 8, 2025



yes i am well aware that i had a very privileged experience during COVID since I lived in a developed country, was never personally impacted by any deaths or severe illness due to covid or suffered from some of the political consequences of covid. this video is nothing more than a personal account and for me to speak on any of those other issues in a personal manner would be disingenuous. however i do feel, after speaking with many different people of different backgrounds, that the political and personal journey many have undertaken during the pandemic is a common experience irrespective of SES/health. we have all been changed and this is how i have. Hbu?

    Forcing people to wear masks, what didn't even do anything to prevent the infection, killing millions of otherwise healthy people in the hospitals, like an ordinary flu ceased to exist. Isolating billions of people in their homes, damaging everyone's ability to form maningful bonds, relying only on the "funny pictures," instead of a human connection. If this didn't prove to anyone, that modern "medicine," "goverment," "society" are a big fucking joke, I don't know, what would. People were so ready to destroy all of their lives, ruin all of the economy, and because of what? Lies.

    Well I was one of the few who had being preparing for years for something like this and they all stopped called me crazy. They got sick of lording it over them though as well so, now nobody talks to me.

    3 stars. (Out of 5)

    I can't describe the gravity of the pandemics impact on my mental health and psychology, it's a strange sense of dread and peace simultaneously. It's strange how you can feel so doomed and yet so at home at the same time.

    I've sort of made the realization over the past couple years that nothing necessarily matters, and that there's no magical journey you go on – it's just a system, like you said.
    The sense that some form of rebellion or apocalypse is immanent almost made me feel free.
    For better or worse, the pandemic changed a lot in my life, and I couldn't imagine what sort of person I would be without it. I couldn't imagine what things would be like without the pandemic anymore, and I don't even know if I want to go back, because I've become so conditioned to the new world.

    if you have to stop watching the US election coverage because of your heath then you have an issue and need to get stronger, some soul less media talking heads shouldn't be enough to negatively effect you

    I liked most of your video, but I believe you may misunderstand centrism in North America. Right wingers want to revert to the ways of yesteryear. Leftists want to give more power to the people. Centrists want to conserve things the way that they currently are. Of course nobody agrees with Centrists in the middle of a global pandemic.

    I needed this pandemic to stop my life in its tracks and stopping everyone else too. I was able to finally break the life i hated and remake it into something im finally happy with when the world stood still.

    Absolutely nothing in my day to day changed over this whole hullabaloo. I don't know if that means I'm really lucky and got to sit this whole thing out or if my life was just kind of shit already 🤷🏿‍♂️

    People being stuck inside due to Covid is just showing me that I, having been stuck inside due to depression and anxiety for years makes one have the same reactions of being isolated as the rest of the world. It was weirdly comforting at first and now, I feel bad for the world despite still wanting to stay inside even if the world goes outside or not. I guess…I love the world more than myself even if I talk to like 3 of the entire population of billions.

    The government has helped no one but politicians in it's entire existence, to it's inception specifically Democracy has been the biggest rug pull ever. And I'm done dealing with any of it.

    For me it's been an understanding of how things like all the horror surrounding WW2 got rolling… How people are just people and how small a insignificant each of our voices are individually and even together. I have come out of this not looking left vs right, it's freedom vs control.

    I really love the way you put my EXACT thoughts and feelings in one video where it makes sense, your writing and calmness is incredible and I related to almost everything in this video, even the specific details. I’m never really good at putting the way I think into an understandable and calm way and this felt really nice having someone read my head like this, thank you big man 🙂 ❤️❤️

    Life in my case hasn't changed whatsoever. I was already studying from home so I simply continued doing that. There were less times I actually went out with friends but I don't go out often to begin with. There's a virus going around killing people but many other things already are and people dying isn't exactly something new to me. Statistically I'd be fine if I got the virus so I wasn't too worried in the case it did happen. And now that I actually have it, it's annoying but otherwise I'm fine. I mean I suppose stuff 'changed' but it always changes. Life was incredibly different as a child than it is now. Only a few years back my life was completely different. I can't imagine the world breaking apart just because of this and it will probably return mostly to normal afterwards.

    I do recognize that I am 'lucky' though. Do to my circumstances and earlier experiences the pandemic simply is another event in my life. My opinions on death are quite muted as well and whilst I care I don't really 'care'. Unless someone really close to me dies I'll probably go on with my life. I've experienced loss before and the feeling was quite overwhelming so I simply don't feel anything else now.

    For me the Pandemic was at first very lonely and depressing. I moved in the beginning to a big City where I had no one except my loving Girlfriend. Usually I'm very outgoing and have a deep need for new talks and ideas, so I suffered a lot at first. Started drinking and hated the government for it's incompetence and the constant doublethink in the Media. But at some point I really started to enjoy to Painting and to Imagine prehistoric Life. I also put so much effort and Love in my relationship. That and my deep love for Nature really calmed me down. However, at some point I have deep anxiety struggles. Not really that much about the Virus, but rather about the way in which our society is moving. But from that anxiety I started to dream about leaving my country and moving to a warmer and more basic place. Away from the purposeless work and toxic society to a warmer, more basic place. Because you need to move from bad to good, that's just the way it is.
