Scientist who battled for COVID common sense over media and government censors wins top award
NY Post ^ | 10/28/2024 | Jonathan Turley

Few in the media seemed eager to attend a ceremony last week in Washington, D.C., where the prestigious American Academy of Sciences and Letters was awarding its top intellectual freedom award.

The problem may have been the recipient: Stanford Professor Dr. Jay Bhattacharya.

Bhattacharya has spent years being vilified by the media over his dissenting views on the pandemic. As one of the signatories of the 2020 Great Barrington Declaration, he was canceled, censored, and even received death threats.

That open letter called on government officials and public health authorities to rethink the mandatory lockdowns and other extreme measures in light of past pandemics.

All the signatories became targets of an orthodoxy enforced by an alliance of political, corporate, media, and academic groups. Most were blocked on social media despite being accomplished scientists with expertise in this area.

Others questioned the six-foot rule used to shut down many businesses as unsupported by science. In congressional testimony, Dr. Anthony Fauci recently admitted that the 6-foot rule “sort of just appeared” and “wasn’t based on data.”

WHERE IS FAUCI?! Is he in hiding because just his appearance will totally tank Klammy?

You Are No Longer Deplorable! You Are a NAZI!

In 2016, you were deplorable!

In 2020, you were a vector of infection and death!

This year you are a Nazi!

What will Republicans be in 2028? Probably genocidal cannibals from space who want to “serve man.”

The level of hatred the left has for ordinary Americans is off the charts, and it is dispiriting that so many ordinary Democrats have been brainwashed by a vile propaganda machine that is working people up into a frenzy reminiscent of Mao’s Cultural Revolution.

The brainwashing has been going on for years, and by no means is it limited to Trump. It is directed at all freedom loving peoples around the world, especially in the Anglosphere.

I’m still trying to figure out how to say Dr. Jay’s last name. But then, I don’t really expect it to come up in any casual conversation at the grocery store or gas station.
I’m glad he is now being vindicated, though.

Pretty sure it is pronounced “bot-a-char-e-ah”.

That’s probably it. But then, I struggled with such names before, back in high school, when I did a term paper based on
The Bhagavad Gita, the Hindu scripture, and it’s similarity to the theory of existentialism.

"Common sense" is become anti-science, while "science" of the political science sort is busy with seeing Bhattacharya "canceled, censored, and even received death threats."

My bride and I are still not customers of Pfizer, Moderna and the others. nor have we been ill. Too many customers of Pfizer, Moderna and the others have been repeatedly ill. Ah, political "science."
