Didn't click through, but the title is indeed the question.

The reason is simple. The organizations at the head of "guiding" society have gone hyper-partisan. The most important of these are the news (now propaganda) organs. Everything is viewed primarily in terms of who says it. In other words, the truth of a statement is no longer as important as its source. Something untrue said by a "trusted source" is considered more valuable and safe than something true said by an "untrusted" source. This has been true since the Financial Crisis in 2008, but has come into much clearer focus first in the 2016 election cycle, and now with Covid and the 2020 election cycle.

It is obviously particularly dangerous when the news has decided that Fauci is a "trusted source". He himself has openly acknowledged lying to us. He explicitly tells us he is lying to us, but he is the guide. Meanwhile those who disagree with him are labeled the "untrusted sources", most especially when they have the most solid factual evidence on their side.

As the material we are talking about is literally deciding who and how many will die in coming months/years, this obviously can not be more dangerous. To have the man who considered it not only wise but a priority to create dangerous pathogens in charge of the response to the very pathogens he put his energy into creating? It's insanity.

But the population hasn't yet sufficiently figured out that the news is no longer news but propaganda. Too many still believe that if his is the "trusted" face on the screen, safety lies in following his dictates.

A classic human tragedy which has played out many times throughout history. This go around, however, is magnified by the new technologies our species has mastered since the industrial revolution, and even just in the past 30 years. More people are waking up to the problem every day, but it cannot happen quickly enough. There is a lot of "medically" sourced death, disease, and suffering awaiting us as long as we keep listening to the mad scientist with the microphone...

Said at the start both America + China and reasons NOT to locate the source! Plus America has shady history of using underhanded means to kill opponents. As in North Korea with flees carrying disease.
