One thing I’ve noticed in this New World Order, is that “experts” and “authorities” will freely admit, some time later, that they “exaggerated” the severity of a problem to motivate the benighted public into action. In other words, they lied, but their cause was just. I’ve seen it with claims about Obamacare, Global Warming, and now Covid.
But if they admitted that they were lying then, why should we trust them now? Because we know they’re wiser than us, care about us more than we care about ourselves, and know our best interests better than we do? I don’t know any of those things. I suspect the contrary.
Anyone who knowingly uses the mass media to lie about public policy is a dangerous sociopath. One lie tells you all you need to know about them.
