Baudrillard would have heavily criticized the government and mainstream media. He would have written “The COVID Pandemic Never Happened” Because in reality while the virus is real, the stakes, conclusions, hypocrisies, protocols, judgements of others, are all living in the hyperreal.

Most nerds, especially nerds from a college whose philosophy department is under Information Sciences, cannot understand Baudrillard. You are as bad as the people on the right calling everything that is bad Post-modernism. You are simply a politically -loaded imbecile dragging Baudrillard into the establishment-constructed Simulacrum of his own work.

I also have felt that this covid stuff is extremely Baudrillardian. In fact, I discovered Baudrillard when I made the prediction that “they” were trying to create a Matrix-type future.

Of course, we already live in one to a high degree.

But I believe in the real. I gamble on the real.
