I'd hardly call it a dystopia... That's some hyperbole. It wasn't great for a lot of people but far from a dystopia. QoL went up in the US by many measures (I know the US is not the world).

It’s been a dystopia for the working class who can’t work from home. It has been very good for the rich and privileged.

That's not the entire planet. And we could have easily decided to help that group instead of giving billions to big companies that did not need it.

I agree. Going back to work as normal and reopening society is helping them.

This has already been done. I have friends and loved ones who never got to work from home. They were not living in a dystopia. You are just using extreme language to further a political point.

No, it has not.

Agreed. Personally, life has improved and been much happier these last two years.

The deaths and suffering others faced doesn't justify that, but wfh has been the catalyst in this improvement.
