It's going to take a long time before the mainstream is ready to think critically about the COVID narratives, but it's good to see first steps toward the recovery of rationality.
But there's still a lot to cover:
- Lockdowns did little to prevent the spread of COVID and lead to increased deaths by other causes, egregious violation of people's fundamental rights, massively destruction of the economy, and many people's mental health.
- Cloth masks were pointless security theatre
- The vast majority of people except the very elderly and obese were in very little danger
- The vaccines never prevented transmission
- The vaccines only offered very limited protection for a brief period
- The rate of side effects (including serious side effects up to and including death) is a lot higher than anyone wants to admit.
- To most segments of the population, the danger of death by vaccine side effects is greater than the danger of death by COVID-19
I'm hoping in a decade or so, we'll get towards something approaching a "sorry, you were right", like we did with the Iraq war, but there's still a long way to go.
