the real issue is giving authority to "experts". Whereas so yeah medical professionals know that covid is contagious, that's fine, no fucking shit common knowledge, use at your own risk. The problem is people looking at this cruel reality and using it to issue preposterous mandates, "stay in your fucking house!". The arrogance of these jerkoffs offended me at first but typing that in quotes is just so funny so i guess i need to just appreciate it.

"Even those who may hesitate at the power exercised by experts and the authorities they abet may find themselves looking to those same people for life-and-death knowledge or treatment in the current pandemic."

yeah, and be careful about that to. I'm an expert in being disappointed by the medical system, the costs of trusting these sleep deprived workers can be pretty grave, and praising and thanking them in the way people do that for/to vets has some pretty sinister implications.

there's no bar to set for how concerned or scared people should be at the moment, all we can do is sit back and see what life hands to us.
