In his 1957 filibuster, Strom Thurmond said "Negroes ... are not so well qualified to vote as are the white people.”

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

We see a lot of short term strategy talk around persuading voters, but this is the much harder long-term problem. A population that lacks the most basic understanding of how our government works cannot rationally govern itself.

Tens of thousands of prisoners deemed to be at low risk of committing crimes again have languished in lockup for as long as a year after they reached their release date under the First Step Act.

Covid has weak-to-no seasonality. These are Australian data but Canada is similar. Wandering peaks, not even close to zero in the dips. Yet Public Health is lumping it into "Respiratory Virus Season", along with flu. It's not seasonal, nor any reason to believe it ever will be.
Top graph… what we have going on with C19 (scaled down compared to flu due to most people using RAT, or nothing).
Bottom graph, flu.
No matter how hard you stare at it, C19 graph is just refusing to morph into a tidy spike like flu.
Wishful thinking doesn’t work.
