When I saw a soulless politician continually interrupt Jay in an appearance before a congressional committee, essentially casting Jay as an advocate for “letting it rip” and death of millions, I feared some crazy government overreach would soon follow, one where a chosen set of experts get to be in charge and others cast into hellfire. Of course California is at the vanguard.

It seems as if some elites see major threats in a tiny faction of truly crazy radicals — on any issue — and then project that crazy radical idea onto anyone who questions the elites’ position, and this group of people that questions them is much larger and much saner than, say, the crazy Twitter troll saying vaccines are government tracking bio weapons.

Jay and many others simply questioned lockdowns, said they would do more harm than good, proposed another way forward. For this, he was deemed a heretic even though more and more research is showing the dramatic negative effects of shutting down society on children in particular.

Too many elites are so drunk on their own beliefs that they feel justified in imposing their will through legislation against all who question them, using words like “misinformation” when in reality, much of the time, it’s just different information worthy of consideration.

Remember the Common Sense article on the executive from Levis? All she asked for was schools reopening.
