Lockdowns in U.S. Europe had little impact in reducing deaths from COVID-19

Yup, not just extensive economic destruction the impacts of which will likely be felt for 5-10 years. Destruction of millions of jobs and many small businesses. Transfer of wealth to billionaires and these large corporations such as Blackrock and Amazon.

Also: massive negative impact on child learning and development from school lockdowns and mask mandates
Also: Empowering transnational corporations and their political allies to seize power, including Big Tech and Big Pharma.
Also: Loss of freedoms
Also: Forced medical procedures in many locations such as vaccine mandates
