Maybe we're in a simulation, and some brains just can't handle it? Who knows.
Then again, there is a lot of misinformation being spread by some pretty influential people. I know you listen to JRE, so you must be as disappointed as I am when he went from being one of the better mainstream sources for info on the virus (when he had Osterholm on, and later Hotez, and repeated their advice) to practically being a "covid denier" who thinks people are only susceptible to it if they're tired or lacking vitamin D.
Musk is even more disappointing, because he's supposed to be a smart guy. Yet he concludes that because the lockdowns were effective, and the death rate was kept in check, that means it was never a threat to begin with. Oh I get that the billionaires want to keep being able to make money, and the lockdown is costing them a lot, but is that all it takes to turn one of the (purportedly) brightest minds into a complete moron?

Rogan have a circle of redneck hunters like Cameron Hanes (I used to be a follower), who openly called people to disregard stay-at-home order and think Elon Fraud is a genius, who is belittling public health officials. You're only at smart as weakest link.
Majority of Elon Musk's comp package tie directly to Tesla's stock price. I firmly believe that people's true color shines through in a crisis where EVERYONE is hurting. This is the case with these herbs. Money is a hell of a drug.
