1. the dimmos used it effectively to oust donald john trump from the white house. the republicans never figured out how to counter the strategy, though it was pitifully obvious.
2. i can speak only to the state of oregon, but, here is how seriously the state of oregon assessed the "pandemic." no matter how many "emergency" measures proclaimed by oregon's dwarf governor, d. kate brown, at no time were the state liquor stores ever closed, and at no time did the state of oregon stop selling alcohol out of those stores.
public schools were closed. public gatherings were restricted and/or banned. college sporting events were suspended. church services were disfavored, but, at no time did brown ever quite match the stupidity of new york politicians cuomo and de blasio.
but, i repeat, the state of oregon did not stop selling booze. hootch. rot gut. nor did it regulate very closely the traffic in and out of them.
that's how serious the "pandemic" was. in other words, not serious enough to stop the sale of booze. think*** about that, sheeple.

***can you get your heads around that?
Closing the liquor stores would have had a negative impact on People of Color (PoC). You think Portland was bad???

The "pandemic" is a lie, as we already know.

I don't know about Oregon, but in lots of states you go to the liquor store to buy your lottery tickets. Can't cut that revenue stream, especially when everyone is out of work and the rent exception and foreclosure exception means no property taxes are coming in. Plus cigs - the highest taxed item in the country - also sold at the booze shop. Even the lockdown was all about the Benjamins; Big Walmart stayed open, little Mom&Pop got shut. Guess who can afford to buy off the government? WallyWorld!!

grog:
yes, agreed. pretty much all fabricated, as the rich and the elites (and dimmos) knew full well. if covid-19 had been the danger as broadcast, they would have worn mask and stayed sequestered. they did not. they flaunted the regulations, because they knew that for the average person, they were bullshit.
gonna be some pissed off people when they wake to the realization theyve been gulled.
