Women are fucking neurotic and narcissistic, especially the ones attracted to politics. Many of them are afflicted with Munchhausen Syndrome by proxy with the female leader functioning as the matriarch and the population functioning as the child. Munchhausen Syndrome by proxy is thought to manifest in caregivers who feel like their life is out of control and who cannot deal with stress and anxiety. This could easily be triggered in susceptible women who feel like they've lost control and have anxiety because of the "pandemic." Look at the signs of classic Munchhausen Syndrome by proxy: * The child doesn't get better, even with treatments that should help. Symptoms only occur when the caregiver is with or has recently been with the child. But symptoms get better or go away when the caregiver is not there or is being closely watched. In the case of covid, society doesn't get better with lockdowns and vaccines that should help. When the "caregiver" is faced with a recall election, mass protests, or other existential political threat, the symptoms get better. * A caregiver suddenly changes doctors and lies about prior testing and treatment. No comment needed. * Normal test results don't reassure the caregiver. They're not reassured by the end of a "wave."
