Good news, bad news...the left can't discern the difference
By Patricia McCarthy
The most puzzling thing about leftists is their stubborn resistance to good news.
Tell them the actual death rate for COVID sufferers is 0.05% and they will come after you like a rabid animal. Explain to them that the COVID numbers are hugely inflated – nearly all deaths of the usual things people die of are now attributed to COVID – and they will do everything in their power to silence you. Let a Stanford doctor suggest that face masks are useless in preventing the spread of COVID, a fact that should be obvious to everyone by now, and that doctor will be cancelled, shadow-banned, deleted.
Months ago, if any doctor uttered the truth about hydroxychloroquine, he or she would be called a charlatan, a freak, a liar, all because President Trump mentioned it early on as one possible treatment.
Thousands of lives might have been saved had the media told the truth about HCQ -- used early, it works. Even the AMA dissed it, but now that the election is over they quietly rescinded their negative stance on the tried-and-true inexpensive drug. That so enraged the left they have now rescinded their reversal.
The good news that HCQ was actually effective was shunned by the entirety of the mainstream media; anything Trump suggests must be twisted and disparaged, no matter how accurate. Hydroxychloroquine had to be rendered a hoax. But it was a valid treatment all along. Bottom line? Bad news is what the left fabricates and sells to an unsuspecting public who only watch CNN or MSNBC or network T.V. news. They thrive on bad news; it boosts their ratings. They thrive on it because they think it gives them power over the rest of us. And sadly, too many Americans are submissive and willing to give up the freedoms they take for granted because of manufactured fear. Those freedoms once lost may not be restored.
