I remember seeing someone make a joke that COVID-19 never happened, and the evidence that they cited was that people keep making arguments that obviously, clearly do not incorporate several years of global pandemic, lockdowns, deaths, hirings, layoffs, etc. I suppose we have more evidence for that right here with the article citing a 50% drop in new grad hires since 2019 as if 2020-2024 was a nice linear-ish change over time we can extrapolate over.
