There is a really good podcast out yesterday with Bill Fleckenstein on QuothTheRaven, and he talked about exactly this: The idea disagreeing with official discourse is somehow "political". It shouldn't be. But everything is so polarized lately that disagreeing with the methodologies for collating case fatalities, for example, or worrying about the second-order effects of the lockdowns, suddenly that makes you "Pro-Trump", or if you agree with all of the above then you're a progressive. It's insane. I blame the mainstream media for most of that dynamic. Can't we have a simple pandemic without the entire thing becoming a political football?
