  I agree with you COVID didn’t radicalize anyone. It just so happened to occur at the same time as Trump and other countries as they took a turn towards fascism. Antiscience and anti intellectualism go with the fascist playbook. They used COVID as a kind of red herring. COVID, trans people, Muslims, border, aliens. It would have been something no matter what.

    Why would they need a red herring?

    Well said. No shortage of forced panic, sacrificial boogeymen to fixate on for the worst among us
