Masking could fight the ‘tripledemic’, experts say. Will anyone listen? (archive.ph)

Apparently continuing failed policies that led to the current problems is the only way to fix current problems…

They can't admit fault now. What would that even look like? "Whoopsie, turns out the transphobic nazi Russian trolls were right from the start, our policies did nothing to stop the disease, the vaccines are more deadly than the disease they fail to innoculate you against, and we created an entire generation of psychotic retards, tee hee"?

They could just shut the fuck up and slink back into the darkness hoping noone will hold them accountable, but all that attention is just so intoxicating...

Being wrong is fine, but being right is unforgivable, for the reasons you specify.

But this is quite something. I'd have expected them to quietly memoryhole the whole thing. If I were in their position, I'd try to cover my ass in a way like this:. "Look, we were in a situation where we thought there was an extremely lethal disease on the loose, and if masks weren't going to help, they would not hurt either. In hindsight, it's easy to come up with better solutions, but you have to make such decisions at the time and with the lives of the most vulnerable being at stake."

One can't expect leftists to de-escalate. Leftists are always agitators.

Being wrong isn't fine when talking about untested genetic alterations. Being wrong isn't fine when talking about stripping the populace of civil rights over a cold. Being wrong isn't fine when talking about destroying the national economy and ruining millions of lives.

Slow tap... I'm talking about the perspective of the rulers, not yours.

If you're wrong about something, you are no threat to them. If you're right (and they are wrong), you may be, and that is unforgivable.

Everything they've done so far, from the lock downs, to the masks or the "vaccines" are all done for more control. The stated goal was always bullshit, but they have to keep up the lie regardless of how obvious it always was.
