Snarky summery: "If me and my fellow "skeptics" keep adding "quote marks" and arguing about everything long enough, surely this time people will listen to us complain about every single aspect of the Covid response."
Actually the article zeros in quite well on the suspension of democratic process in favor of "emergency" powers, and the mistakes skeptics are making in attributing all the manifest and abject failures of the COVID response to excessive government power, rather than corporate control and influence of the process.
Great use of "quotes". That will "convince" me for sure!
No I don't think you're open to any sort of arguments or changes to your position at all, and my comment wasn't really intended for you.
