Ingraham: They loved Covid because you could sit at home and order DoorDash, the government sends you a check. They got pot, no church, no work. And, you know, DoorDash and Netflix.

The claim attributes to Laura Ingraham a statement that people 'loved Covid because you could sit at home and order DoorDash, the government sends you a check. They got pot, no church, no work. And, you know, DoorDash and Netflix.' This statement appears to be a commentary or opinion rather than a factual report. The search results do not provide a direct transcript or verified source of this exact quote but do include references to Ingraham's COVID-related commentary on Fox News.johndevore.medium.comjohndevore.medium.comScenes From Quarantine. 9 weeks in 2020. 12 essays. Covid-19 The claim implies that people enjoyed the pandemic due to government stimulus checks, access to delivery services like DoorDash, recreational marijuana, lack of church attendance, and entertainment like Netflix. While it is true that many governments issued stimulus payments during the pandemic and that delivery services and streaming platforms saw increased usage, the claim simplifies the diverse experiences of millions who faced serious hardships including illness, job loss without adequate support, isolation, and mental health challenges.

No credible sources in the search results confirm that Ingraham's statement was presented as an objective fact or that it reflects a broad truth about public sentiment. Instead, it seems to be a partisan critique or rhetorical device aimed at certain groups perceived as benefiting from pandemic restrictions. The claim is therefore misleading because it presents an opinionated statement as a factual summary of people's attitudes toward COVID-19.

In conclusion, while elements of the statement (government checks, increased use of delivery and streaming services) are factually accurate in isolation, the overall framing that people 'loved Covid' for these reasons is an oversimplification and lacks nuance or supporting evidence from the sources provided.
