Better late than never is progress, one supposes, when it comes to the left-wing corporate media. The mantra of “listen to the experts” has less to do with informed consent and more to do with unquestioning obedience coupled with the gaslighting of dissenters. In the end, “team science” just succeeded in wrecking their own credibility.
What we did not properly appreciate is that preferences determine how scientific expertise is used, and that our preferences might be—indeed, our preferences were—very different from many of the people that we serve. We created policy based on our preferences, then justified it using data. And then we portrayed those opposing our efforts as misguided, ignorant, selfish, and evil.
We made science a team sport, and in so doing, we made it no longer science. It became us versus them, and “they” responded the only way anyone might expect them to: by resisting.
A very accurate analysis. It should be taught to every science student at every opportunity.
Every scientist I ever met was almost completely absorbed in their science to the point where their social and personal interaction skills were seriously under developed. What we asked this community to do by leading the response to Covid was like asking the boilers mate to lead the Armada with the same predictable results.
Asking them to admit their mistakes is another bridge to far.
sorry you dont get to be the perp AND the victim
Just like Mann-Made Global Warming (of one tree in siberia), they came to conclusions first, and went about publishing data that supported their conclusions, while suppressing or ignoring any data that would contradict their conclusions (see Diamond Princess, and Teddy Roosevelt).
All of them need to die in obscurity, never to be heard from again.
Was thinking the same – my response to this guy’s article is simply “now do climate change”.
Even MORE importantly … admit you were WRONG about:
– Global Warming
– Co2
– Carbon Neutrality
– Climate Change (as “accelerated by man”)
– Sea level rise
– EXTREME weather
I don’t think they’ve worked out that mRNA is to vaccines, what nuclear fusion is to energy.
A large percentage of the scientific community view the general public as nothing more than a bunch of lab rats to be experimented on and disposed of at volition. When they do something unethical they cover their tracks while dressing up political agendas as “science” to ensure that government funds keep flowing. This “community” seems to naturally attract sociopaths who only care about lining their own pockets with reckless disregard for public safety.
This gaslighting asswipe Kevin, needs to FOAD.
Guillotines for all who participated in the Coof/fake vax agitprop, driving billions to intake the dread Goo.
Never forget, never forgive.
Politicians thought they could harness science to purify the policies of the politicians…..instead they sullied science totally. So now, not only are politicians dirty, but so is science. When you try to wash one thing clean, you implacably have to make something else dirty.
In the very near future, I predict Kevin Bass will:
– commit suicide
And/Or
– pass away from a “cardiac event” caused by Climate Change(TM)
Dennis,
Excellent tag line!
Now I crave some Barrington Blueberry Crumble!
As to above comments, I also don’t accept the “perp-victim” attempts. He bought in.
At least he admits it was wrong, which isn’t gaslighting, it is mea culpa.
The moment politicians got involved is the moment science scht the bed..
I had a wait and see attitude from the beginning.. But when it took a dark turn the only thing I knew for sure is I wasn’t one of them.. The slow burn of outing who is who.. My trust in near everything is gone.. While I didn’t risk my life with experimental mRNA vaccines (not a vaccine).. I did take a major hit to my mental health and well being..
“Mistakes were made.”
Sorry, nope, that excuse went out at Nuremberg, just like “I was just following orders.” the public is entitled to construe the entirely foreseeable negative consequences of policy as the government’s intent, just as a murderer is liable for his crime no matter whom the bullet hits.
Either “truth and reconciliation”, or just retribution. Pick one.
“Best I can do is a military tribunal, followed by executions.”
Nuremburg Neck-Tie!

Great article! A compliant NPC finally woke up!
Aw shucks I was fooled and there was an unfortunate outcome, is certainly a great cover. Might even spare you prison.
I suspect almost everyone involved will try this version of deflection.
He’ll get there. When he wakes up to the fact that the vaccines are poison that is injuring and killing people, he’ll really be there.
They may be some well meaning innocents among the Covidians, their only hope at redemption is to help identify the guilty for trial. Nothing less will suffice. I encourage all to read report 54 from Naomi Wolf about the Pfizer documents, this is the worst barbarity uncovered to date. Only the gallows for all involved.
She can be found on substack or at dailyclout.io , not good at links so won’t bother.
So important, I’m giving it a try.

Well done, Peter! Thx for the link. A good read.
It isn’t that they made mistakes, it’s that they oppressed contrary opinions and information, that is the biggest issue!
And kate in here allows idiots like alla unDork to propagate lies and bullshit.
“It isn’t that they made mistakes, it’s that they oppressed contrary opinions and information, that is the biggest issue!”
Same thing I said about ClimateGate…forget about “the tricks to hide the decline”, the real crime was conspiring to prevent contrary opinions being published in scientific journals.
“Mistakes”.
Right.
Everybody has the right to make bad personal choices.
Nobody has the right to impose their poor choices upon others.
Our Statist Thuggies crossed that line.
A line ,I suspect they never knew existed.
Every one of these Mandators,needs a date, with the axeman.
But first we need to check a few details.
Did they actually get the Jonestown Jab?
Is there physical evidence in their bodies?
If not,let them enjoy 1 jab of their Government Goo,for every person harmed.
The right to be left alone,will have to be explained to all our eager little helpers..
Some of whom are so thick,that only an axe between their eyes will get their attention.
It is time,for The Retribution Party..
Especially attractive to those who know their time on earth has been fore shortened by these fools and bandits.
Party Time.
you cannot unsee these last 3 years.
Is this a society worth saving?
For it is official,we have no rights under law and no freedoms from government force.
Hell we found more snitches and Nasties than we every expected..This is what these people like to do.
Will you ever rest easy,when one of them is behind you?
Are you so stupid,that you would left even one of these special helpers remain in any position of authority?
Help as “outstanding” as our public health officials and the elected morons, cannot go unrewarded.
Or they will continue to “help” us.
What they did not appreciate is that “consensus” science is nonsense. To disagree is not to be disagreeable, it is the heart of science.
So, a lie by any other name eh.
