Or, perhaps, I suspect, in this world of Propaganda, the Narrative will not be destroyed, not even crumble, it will just be forgotten and they will move onto another ...
Notice how in the State of the Union Speech NO ONE had on a Muzzle, and people were shaking hands and hugging ?
Yep, let's just pretend it never happened and forget that 4.2 Trillion dollars spent ....

I guess I'm not reluctant to say, "I enjoyed reading the post". The greatest ornament within it came in the form of that color photo of Six Grandees each proclaiming to all of us rubes, hicks, and hayseeds that [sic], "You won't get the virus if you are vaccinated". What a bunch of obvious dumb-asses they have all turned out to be. The circumstances surrounding the antics of these clowns surely would define the necessity of the potent expression, "delicious irony". This mess we are in is no less than a stinking pile of warm, not-fragrant horseshit. Taken all together, what we have seen to date with this pandemic is almost hilarious except that it really can't be. Because what has happened is a tragedy with multiple layers.
Without much fanfare, earlier this week Jeff Gerth, a Pulitzer-Prize winning former New York Times investigative reporter, dropped a thorough and damning four-part article dissecting the media’s obsessive reporting on Donald Trump’s alleged collusion with Russia. Even more surprising, Gerth’s report, “The press versus the president,” appeared at the in-house organ of America’s most prestigious journalism school, Columbia Journalism Review, which has long been regarded as something of an unofficial ombudsman for the media industry.
Like the always disheveled Lt. Columbo would phrase it with the cigar butt dangling in his mouth, "There's just one more question that is bothering me" --- I am insufficiently trained, experienced, or credentialed to probe the following issue: Can somebody with valid epidemiology tickets, no agendas, and plenty of experience PLEASE take a hard look at this claim recently being made by the very confident electrical engineer Steve Kirsch that he has "absolutely proven" the greater lethality of receiving mRNA vaccines (relative to not receiving them)? I have read his stuff online and it sure seems to me that the approach taken is not valid for performing any reliable causal attribution because it may well be crippled by the operation of the ecological fallacy. Then there is this separate aspect of his rigmarole -- using as "raw data" the recollections of volunteers (?). I'm not asserting that Kirsch is "dead wrong" even if he pretty clearly seems to be way out of his lane. I'm saying that his methodology definitely deserves what Professor Deborah Mayo would call "a severe test". I am not bullshitting here -- this is important..
Westerners (Americans in particular, historically) are particularly vulnerable to media lies because we have had a high trust society for so long. This, of course, is the result of historically sparse populations and homogenous racial/ethnic demographics. Until recently, Scandinavian countries served as the best examples of this effect.
As population density increases and migrant populations are introduced, you are starting to see erosion of trust among and between neighbors, colleagues, business partners and passersby. This will, in time, extend to the media.

In short, no one will ever be held accountable.
