You either believe it's in control or you don't. You either believe everything that's happening is planned/scripted (yes, with real world ramifications attached), or you don't. Look at other countries (not Australia, obviously) that are now saying "Fuck it; it's the flu" like Norway, Sweden, etc. Restrictions are being removed. It's places like Italy, France, the US, Aussie land that are still struggling with a populace that's bifurcated over the virus. China isn't. Neither are places like India. Everyone's coming out the other side of all this, and starting to get back to normal.
If you thought that subverting and overturning the control of DS across the globe was going to be easy, then you weren't paying attention. It's like removing a parasite (interesting, huh?). Doing so takes a methodical and tedious approach. It'll be years before everything is back to the norm. Using their script to pull it off will subvert the greatest subversions of all.
God wins, remember?
