Normalization was the greatest danger: underestimating what was happening, denying the threat, and building fertile ground for pathology to spread. The greatest antidote to this (and the first step to getting better) is insight: now let us truly recognize what is happening.
The press is at the forefront. What is remarkable is what goes unremarked (consider how frivolous, ignorant, and wanting of expertise/experts the best of our papers is): https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/14/us/politics/trump-ramp-water-glass-health.html
The harm is no longer in what is said, but what goes unsaid. 2.2 million cases, almost 120,000 deaths (with 10’s of 1000’s more if we added the uncounted); concentration camps; a president who has turned the canons against the people; neurological signs that could mean....
... multiple, serious, and debilitating problems (and, oh yes, a stroke on top of that); and the press is talking about a few difficult steps? These things are interrelated, the mind and body are one, but most importantly, the nation is collapsing for trying to protect one man!
*And even the few difficult steps it will forget in a few days!
