But what I think Less was flagging was the utter stupidity of Adder’s comment. Adder appears to believe that if we just locked down hard enough, long enough, and got vaccinated, we could have killed Covid.
Well, the Chinese, geniuses that they are, did that. And how’s the working out for them?
There is no solution, no eventuality of Covid, that doesn’t involve it becoming endemic. Idk how the fuck Adder concludes that the virus’s mutations to weaker variants is a bad thing. But I also don’t care. If you think something that stupid, you’re not worth addressing or considering.

Well, also if we would have glassed the earth we would have killed Covid. In retrospect no individual place's "lockdown" will ever be successful unless the whole world locks down. And there's a difference between eliminating high transmission situations that most of the world did and welding people's doors shut.
