Great post and great points. I have been puzzled by WSWS' positions on the pandemic and your article suggesting a strong CCP influence actually now makes a ton of sense. It also adds weight to your arguments in your book (which I'm about halfway through) that Xi and CCP literally worked to shut down the world through either exaggeration or complete fakery of the pandemic -- including, in particular, the decision to test asymptomatics. It has been well-established in epidemiology for decades now that testing asymptomatics with low backround prevalence of the disease being tested for will lead to a large majority of false positives. And yet this was yet another key tenet that was simply ignored in this pandemic. Why? Well, that remains to be established but I am increasingly open to the idea that this was planned, whether it was CCP or Bill Gates or other forces leading the way. Or, more likely, a rare confluence of many large trends that worked together unwittingly to transform what would have been most likely a new and small epidemic into a global pandemic that shut down the world. Please contact me at tamhunt at gmail as I have a number of issues I'd like to discuss with you (I'm a 20 year policy attorney and have been working on pandemic policy for the last two years).
