I could've told them that without being an expert.

Almost all OT prophecy denounces two things: idolatry and bad conduct. It's hard to miss, yet the application is often wanting.

Given the ethical depravity of late, I expect most journalists will accept bribes to publish falsehoods by interested parties like the Clintons, Soros, gov't agencies, or market manipulators. And the "scientists" whom they quote likely have Conflicts of Interest.
The evil fruit of Edward Bernays!

Best way to treat wild animals is with hostility; sentimentalists who feed them are foolish, for they lose their fear of man that way.

The surface Navy was curb-stomped at Java Sea and Guadalcanal (esp. Savo Island), with gross incompetence by US cruiser captains; fortunately for us, the IJN commander was too timid[!] to follow up on his victories. Guadalcanal was won by Marines and airmen, not the Navy. And for over 2 years, American submarines had to use torpedoes which rarely worked.

I'm convinced that had the Pacific Fleet been properly alerted of Japanese intentions in Dec. 1941, they would've wound up at the bottom of the ocean, instead of the bottom of Pearl Harbor. I infer this from their abysmal performance during the Guadalcanal actions - Midway was a fluke.

But I do believe in keeping Social Distance from fools, during disease outbreaks or not.

"Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one." - Charles Mackay, 1841

Biblical Protestantism, by contrast, emphasizes liberty of conscience due to belief that only God can change minds (yes, I know they were not always consistent in practice). Tragically however, leftists have used such liberty to promote their anti-liberty agenda.

To be sure though, it wasn't so rosy back then either. FDR was a master of propaganda; those famous Dust Bowl pics were carefully vetted by Roy Stryker (of the Farm Security Admin.) to toe the Progressive narrative. They were gladly accepted by the press since there was no fee. This continued with the Office of War Information. I think this partly explains the "Greatest Generation" nostalgia.

I wonder how much "pull" the world's no. 2 clerical tyranny has as a corporate shareholder.
