Incompetence or dishonesty?

This has been the major question since last spring:
Are public health officials just stupid, or are they manipulating information on purpose for political ends? In other words, are they evil?
The answer has been extremely clear since critical thinkers started digging at raw data and testing it against the “logic” of the official policy guidance in Spring 2020.
But those analysts and analyses were deplatformed and disappeared by Facebook, Twitter and Google/YouTube to prevent normal people with normal lives from being able to learn about it. Because regular people don’t have the time to spend hours every day reading reports, downloading them before they’re deleted, thinking about what they mean, and connecting each link in the chain to the next.
Now the enormity of the lies and the intentionality of the liars is becoming clear even to regular people, and even covered in regular, corporate media platforms.
