Recently, I asked a few people their opinion about the rising number of covid cases in Maharashtra.
It was appalling to hear them say that they wanted police to use physical force, lathis, public humiliation etc. to keep people from coming out of their homes. They were glorifying police brutality that happened during the initial lockdown months and preferred a similar solution to tackle covid.
There's something wrong with the society when individuals start praising anarchy. To ask for being locked up inside your home, your freedom taken away and your human rights infringed upon time and again is indicative of a mind that has lost it's ability to reason. Covid has either reduced people's critical thinking skills or has exposed their lack of it.
