Yes - and it’s not true - there is plenty of footage of protesters not following health guidelines, and indeed plenty of discussion of how the protests may have precipitated a covid spike.
The fact that other similar events were not permitted proves the hypocrisy in the public health guidance regardless of the outcome.
If you don’t think there is any political bias in public health policy, that’s fine, but it seems like we are in disagreement about that.

This is a significant altering of the goal posts. But anyway, you seem convinced it's all part of some huge partisan battle where you're sure that your side is the good side and everything is stacked against your side. I'm not part of this battle.
- zepto 5y ago> This is a significant altering of the goal posts. Not really - it’s a matter of degree. When there is too much bias displayed, it stops being public health and is discredited. > you seem convinced it's all part of some huge partisan battle where you're sure that your side is the good side and everything is stacked against your side. This seems like pure imagination on your part. I suggest you reread the thread. You’ll see no evidence anything partisan from me. I simply think that public health officials have undermined trust by politicizing the issues or otherwise distorted their message. I.e. they have ‘discredited’ the field as the other poster said. > I'm not part of this battle. Are you sure? You are the only one reading this conversation and seeing a ‘battle’.
