The covid nonsense really opened my eyes to how scientific "consensus" is reached.
The orthodox opinion is decided, and anyone who has a contrary opinion is purged. Then they can say all mainstream scientists agree with orthodox opinion. A little bit of record scrubbing later and the normies will believe anything you tell them about the subject.
I didn't completely understand this until I saw it happen in real time with the coof. Now I just asssume that's how it happens with everything, including climate hysteria.

Would you mind listing what specifically you saw being adjusted in this way, if you remember? Covid will likely be an MSM red pill for many but exactly for what will depend a lot on "why" due to what people keep track of and experience themselves.
The main thing I remember is seeing doctors speaking out on twitter and other social media outlets. Those doctors were then banned and sometimes stripped of credentials for not falling in line with the who or cdc.
Sometimes it was for speaking out against the vaccine. Other times it was for something as tame as talking about ivermectin.
Also the fear mongering. I remember the news story about “mass graves” in New York City that even people like Tim Pool covered. In a real emergency the powers that be would be trying to keep everyone calm. The fact that they were trying to drum up fear like that was a dead giveaway this was all nonsense.
