You don’t see a pattern? We went from questionable analysis of COVID cases by actual doctors last week, over to 5G coronavirus conspiracy theories this week.

This is the proverbial slippery slope, albeit a bit anachronistic as the more egregious case is the latter (5G conspiracy), so the escalation is unable to be painted by the sequence.

I’d also ask you consider that your line of thinking as a framework has been misused throughout history, often in the context of censorship.

Of course, the obvious retort is that these people aren’t Galileo, but I’m arguing that this framework is bad on a societal level.
