I hope that agreement was for the whole article and not just the portion related to the hive / steem situation. The longer this COVID-19 situation goes on the more important it will be on people to "man up". My gut instinct is telling me that more is at play here than some "virus". Like I said in early comment this week on another post (or it may have been in discord chat) this "virus" could very well be a "Trojan Horse" delivering us something more sinister than what probably should be called a flue.
I think back to that which old man Bush said when he was president. While I can't recall it verbatim the message was about NWO, he said in closing "we will be successful".
