An alarming number of Americans appear to be addicted to conspiracy theories, drawn deeper into their addiction by a Republican Party with no bottom and social media companies that profit off them.
@kristanhoffman I feel like society has moved backward as a whole. It’s sad to think that they can want to live in the world with such hate and divisiveness 😪
Democrats are not running MAGA buses off the road and they're not trying to terrorize Bill Barr. They're not showing up armed at polling places and they're not trying to intimidate anyone from voting.
Remind me who the dangerous radicals are again.
OK, so from my interviews with a ton of epidemiologists over the last bunch of months, here's a pretty straightforward plan to suppress the virus and get the US to something like, say, 90% of normal life. Three steps!
Can you honestly say that the world we live in is a good one? I hate the chaos and anxiety of the constant barrage of conspiracy theories running rampant, the pandemic, and the POTUS having scandal after scandal emerge almost daily. I want my life back; I want my kids to have...

Dear Science Deniers,
(Anti-vaxers, anti-maskers, climate hoaxers, flat-Earthers, etc)
You found one another & communicate via stupefyingly advanced technologies that pivot on the discoveries of scientists.
Just thought I’d remind you of that fact.
Sincerely,

Places around the world that used masks consistently have had half to two-thirds less Covid spread. Imagine how many deaths could have been prevented in the US if the federal government had focused on masks rather than hydroxychloroquine.
@kristanhoffman Good article... I can see a parallel in mom life as well... poor communicating with fleeting moments of snippets of conversations added to lots of home time isolated with the kids/babies. It’s a weird world on top of our parenting lives!
