Agreed! I cant tell if they mean people dont wear the right types of or fresh enough masks, if they're in denial that masks work, or what...? Just sounds kind of bitter and meaningless. But Im genuinely curious about their perspective.
- Arnt 5y agoInnuendo is good, though, because you you can employ it to hide things that you don't want the reader to notice. In this case, if GP were to use factual sentences, this might have been one way to phrase "the covid infection graph was flat in Denmark until government lifted the mask rules, then it dropped, and this shows that masks were harmful". The problem with such factual statements is that the error is plainly visible (the graph wasn't actually flat, the case count was dropping steeply). Phrasing using innuendo allows GP to hide the factual error. The intentionally imprecise language hides a lack of accuracy.
