Picking up on my previous, cryptically abbreviated message.
So, where’s the philanthropic disconnect? Rotarians in US were all in on eradicating Polio. They’ll probably say they still are. Why cave in/give up on the 4 way Test for any politician who denigrates the foundational principles of Rotary?

It's striking the extent to which there's never any justification given for any of this beyond "it's too many people" or "it's actually fake" and no apparent planning behind any of it. It's the aesthetics of "move fast and break things" without any discernible direction or purpose. It's cosplay.

“We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff.
They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”
