just a mistake at first, but then became a damnable lie.
The thing is, though, most of the time our writers weren’t wrong. It is now indisputable that shutdowns inflicted deep harm on children and destabilized the economy. It is also highly unlikely that, after it was clear Covid variants would continue to spread, keeping businesses closed for months saved lives.
Hey, I’d like to see a few apologies, here. Can the COVIDarians just admit that they were wrong?
Fauci also admitted to lying about the threshold for herd immunity because “polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine.” Worse, when three scientists — Martin Kulldorff of Harvard, Sunetra Gupta of Oxford, and Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford — released the “Great Barrington Declaration,” questioning the efficacy of lockdowns and warning, among other things, about the damaging “physical and mental health impacts” of closing schools, Fauci colluded with others to suppress the document, plotting a “quick and devastating published takedown.”
Read the declaration. They were right. He was wrong.
Admit it, COVIDarians, YOU WERE WRONG! It won’t hurt you to admit, you know. And a failure to admit is almost a sure sign that there is something psychopathologically defensive going on, here! The more time that passes without an apology, the more psychopathological this looks–and the more it looks like garden-variety despotism…
I mean, we ALL make mistakes at times. But when a person makes a mistake and yet rigidly clings to it even when there is indisputable proof that it was wrong, one HAS to wonder what else is going on!
