imagine, if you will, a bizarro universe.
a universe in which donald trump seeks to lock down NY, NY, CT and in which andrew cuomo protests that it would be illegal, have no medical value, and that he "doesn't like the sound of it."
then watch this video from march. https://twitter.com/AP_Scoop/status/1285676105328783360

how could any sane person trust any of these politicians anymore?
they have never been on the side of science, sense, or the people.
they've been having a partisan food fight, scoring cheap political points, and have forgotten there is a country attached to their squabble.

they have not led.
they have worked to oppose one another and pointed like weathervanes toward polls and pandering and negative-sum gotchaball.
this has led to the worst of all possible worlds: "health policy by media."
that's what we're living in.
mediacracy.

the media is not on your side. they are on their side, and their side wants more revenue.
inflaming you is more profitable than informing you and the real time feedback of modern media lets inflammatory messages get tailored near instantly.

when this muckraking & fear mongering panics a society and its "leaders" are really "followers" you descend into mob rule
and make no mistake, that's exactly what this has been
we tossed reason, science, & 100 years of pandemic experience out the window https://twitter.com/boriquagato/status/1280990976694083585?s=20

it's gotten so bad and politicized that health agencies are re-writing guidance in real time in response to political pressure
masks and lockdowns (which are known not to work) are presented as panacea and longstanding ideas like herd immunity that do disparaged as pseudoscience

this may be great politics, but it's awful policy.
the media pushes that which frightens and angers.
the politicians push that which disparages there opponents while seeking to be seen "doing something" in response to constituent anger and fear.
it's derangement.

it's derangement.
it's a cargo cult of leadership where politicians have mistaken being shouty and bossy for actually knowing what to do
it's like watching children playing office put in charge the fortune 500
we need to stop listening to these muppets
far more than covid, they are the problem
