I agree with what you're saying, and that's how I talk to people who aren't already converted, but I don't think it's relevant to what I'm saying. Doctors (and scientists in general) were the ones who were supposed to uphold rational discussion and push back against this insane power grab and flagrant abuse of science. Instead the vast majority kept quiet to keep their status and jobs, or even joined the lie to profit from it. It's reprehensible.
Now that public opinion about COVID has started shifting (because governments are allowing it to shift), some of these same people are jumping at the chance to make political gains or get speaking jobs. It's not bravery, it's cowardly opportunism.
