The simple truth is that some covid "conspiracy theories" are true. Or phrased differently, the centrally-controlled highly authoritarian narrative which allows no dissent or nuance, is quite frequently wrong. Sometimes it's...
* partially wrong
* VERY WRONG
* doesn't have sufficient evidence to back up it's claims.
* pulls wild assertions out of it's ass
* heavily decides the "correct" answer based almost entirely on political preference
* suppressing "wrong thing" for no other reason than it conflicts with a political preference
I don't really give a fuck about Covid anymore. But if you look at my username "Who Flu" that's inspired by... "World Health Organization Flu." There's a massive amount of stuff, especially from the first 4 months that was well known in the "conspiracy-circles" which went against the narrative, which is almost certainly true.
Stopping "conspiracy theories" means stopping a lot of stuff that is true or likely true. Suppressing that which is true, is destructive, but also requires more effort.
Its nice you have it good enough to not care. Ontario canada has been closed for 2 weeks since boxung dat and still is. The government is actually taking away rights giving cops ability to ticket based on suspicion to gether. Allowing cars to be stopped and questioned without cause. If you refuse to talk its a fine. What happened to you have a right to remain silent? Whole province is closed because of Toronto.
