means never having to say you’re sorry–or were dead wrong!
The fact of the matter is that this was either total ignorance or sheer malice on the part of the MSM. Or a combination of both. I think it was, in fact, a combination of both.
They knew or should have known that it was all a steaming pile of crap. And they did it anyway. The medical community completely soiled itself by bowing to the amazing pressure they were getting from administrators. Many of us were just too naïve to think that we might be being lied to.
But we were being lied to.
That means 55 percent of adults were scientifically correct. They [the Lefty”authorities” ed.] exaggerated the risks, and suggested any Republican who was skeptical of lockdowns (starting with Trump) should be considered responsible for thousands of deaths.
I think this was a “trial run” in many ways. But future “pandemics” will not be just bleatingly be accepted next time. And it has wreaked immense damage on the medical and scientific community.
People have rightly become a bit jaded and are not likely to again blindly trust “authorities.” They have just cried “Wolf!” too many times. Plus, more “rogue authorities” will speak out, and there are now Internet forums that will give them voice–they won’t just get banned from Facebook and YouTube and so slide into anonymity and oblivion.
