According to a New Post Editorial, july,25, 2021:
{"Iconoclast: ‘No’ to the ‘‘New Normal’
Globalist elites insist that “the way we live and work in the post-COVID world
will be very different to how we lived and worked in the pre-COVID world,”
notes Frank Furedi at Spiked Online — to which our answer should be: Hell no.
What exactly they mean by the “New Normal” varies by elite camps: Some
emphasize “decarbonization” of the economy, others want permanent online
schooling, and still others demand even more technocratic — and thus less
democratic — rule. The philosophical assumption behind all is equally
impoverished: “A virus is effectively dictating our futures for us. Public
life has been reduced to little more than an exercise in public health. The
overarching objective of New Normal life amounts to little more than avoiding
risk.” Its “dominant themes” are “human passivity and powerlessness” — a
“dangerous backwards step for humanity.”}
