Science: COVID Lockdowns Are Racist

Look at this racist. I mean … just look at him.

I’ve long thought the COVID lockdowns were unconstitutional, overbroad, and ineffective. For this, I’ve been called a “grandma killer.” But now Science™ has proven my moral superiority. You see, lockdowns are an insidious tool of White Supremacy.

According to a UK study sponsored by the Woolf Institute, working from home can lead to more prejudice.

Workplace friendships are key to breaking down misconceptions, the England and Wales study for the Woolf Institute suggests.

Institute founder Ed Kessler said as more people work from home they risk going “back into isolated silos”.

He called on ministers to focus on offices and workplaces as a “vital” area for improving community relations.

More than 11,000 adults across England and Wales were interviewed. The Institute then used a technique called Multilevel Regression Poststratification, which certainly sounds very sciency. This revealed that working from home — and the lockdowns that force people to work from home — are racist. And you can’t argue with science.

The study suggests that of those who work in shared offices, three-quarters (76%) – regardless of ethnicity – were in a setting that is ethnically diverse.

However, it suggests that unemployed people are 37% more likely to only have friends from their own ethnic group.

And it warns that without alternative settings to offices being set up, opportunities for social mixing between different religious and ethnic groups will be greatly reduced.

Thank you, Science™, for confirming that my lockdown skepticism is not only sound on libertarian principles, but also on wokeness. Anyone who promotes lockdowns is a racist, white-supremacist science-denier. I bet they even think that all lives matter.

Hopefully, the Woolf Institute will next prove that masks cause climate change so we can all go about our lives in peace and freedom.

    And studies show that wealthy people are 99.99% more likely to live in comfortable lockdown environs than poor people. Perhaps VP Harris can be put in charge of some kind of bussing program to deal with this issue.

    Sounds like mandated mixed racial & sexual deviant quarantining are in our future. It’s the only way to combat both eeeeevviiilllss!

    Multilevel Regression Poststratification

    Just give up. Once they break out the Multilevel Regression Poststratification on you, it’s game over.

    I am assuming that Multilevel Regression Poststratification actually exists and is a valid statistical test.

    According to Wikipedia, it’s used to estimate polling results without having to go to the work or expense to actually contact a lot of extra people. What could go wrong?
