Global conflict change has heated up since 911, creating a completely different cultural and physical environment. Sadly the social sciences have not come to a consensus as to the cause or course of action. But the effects are even more glaringly catastrophic. Strategies to have the diplomats outsource to the military-industrial complex has only accelerated the warming process.

The public decision making body that that is unofficial and largely invisible that decides strategies that spread or stop the spread of C-19 and specially who gets treated for C-19 and who does not. The C-19 Death Panels can be comprised of different types of people in all levels of gov and private sector but not limited to public heath or medical experts. In some cases it is politicians and some cases business owners or religious leaders.
C-19 Death Panel decisions range from Politicians and Public Health Agencies deciding on strategies to prevent the spread of C-19, Public Health Agencies and Medical Administrators planning (or lack there of) to assure medical people do (or don't) have proper PPE, medical equipment, hospital capacity to heal patients or to protect even to protect patients with our without it from C-19. And there are some on the panels that make individual decisions on which medical people get adequate PPE (to protect them and/or patients), who gets tests and tested, and who gets treated for C-19, especially when there is limited capacity for prevention or care.
Criteria used by the C-19 Death Panels can be well thought out and based on data and analysis by public heath and medical professions or made on the fly by politicians or their advisers that are trained in financial and economics and whatever else they think is relevant.

The greatest innovation of the C-19 Death Panel is that it not only makes decisions on who gets treatment like other medical death panels but it is largely responsible for who and how a person gets exposed to the disease that can kill the future patient. In a lot of cases there is more than one C-19 Death Panel acting, often with completely different logic and counter strategies. Some prioritizing the economy over your grand parents and some your grand parents over the economy.
It should be noted that the C-19 Death Panels can develop strategies that create enough people with the C-19 illness to overwhelm not only everyone's medical care and medical insurance rates.

An allowlist has the same meaning as a whitelist in computer and tech industry.

Allowlist like block list are much more intuitive and descriptive than whitelist and blacklist and don't have subliminal racist associations- blacklist = block and whitelist = allow.

The movement is for democratic solutions that involve the public at large and not through special interest groups solutions that have only perpetuated violence. They are for providing more public health to assure mental fitness. And they are against increasing the more violent types of methods and technologies that have only accentuated the problem of violence. While the issue of violence has always been debated and discussed through democratic means it has not always gotten very far with regards to effective public policy. After repeated police killings, street violence, massacres in schools and public places the youth have taken charge and started to effectively lead on this issue of a more civil life democracy free of violence.
The Civil Life Movement has lingered through the ages, making incremental progress on major issues, such as human rights, civil rights, and minority rights. However, it has also neglected some of the most fundamental issues, such as the right to be free of violence and violent methods of dispute resolution. After repeated failures to keep massacres and even domestic violence under control, the youth have organized Enough Rallies to focus on effective and human policies to reduce violence, and to solve problems democratically as a people instead of leaving it to special interest groups.
