The question now is what can we learn from how things were handled by the government in power at the time that half-a-million people died of Covid-19 in the US? As relates to the article of discussion the question is: Was there gas-lightning going on that made things worse?
Of course everybody makes mistakes and we should and can learn from them. But, "gas-lightning" is not a mistake. It is intentional.
- CivBase 6y agoThe article wasn't talking about the government gaslighting scientists. It talked about scientists gaslighting each other. This is nothing new. Science isn't clean. Just like anything run by humans, it's full of politics and nonsense. We just don't normally pay so much attention to it.
