> It is simply incredible that you've reduced the argument for lifting lockdowns to "getting a mocha latte grande whatever." I have never seen an argument made in such bad faith before. It's meant to be the worst possible reason to end the lock down, with "otherwise everybody dies" being the best possible reason. Everybody falls somewhere between these extremes. I just wanted to make clear that there is no sane position that responds to the worst possible circumstances by saying "lives must not be lost because of Covid-19, but I'm fine with them being lost because of our reaction to Covid-19". My personal opinion is somewhat close to yours, I believe. I'm aware that a massively shrinking economy has severe real world consequences.
