This appears to just be articles about examples of the harm of the lockdown, which isn't what I asked about, nor did I deny it. Another person could just as easily post examples of the direct harm of the virus and call it "descending into chaos" because we didn't lock down enough. The point is to be rational.

Those effects don't amount to "general chaos" when compared to a normal flu season? I'll admit it's a little hyperbolic, as is my style.
But in many parts of the country (mostly the parts where HN users don't live, naturally), "general chaos" is already not hyperbole: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/06/upshot/murders-rising-cri...
