   @thomasfuchs Sampling bias is b**ch. Evangelists and/or profiteers make a lot of noise, but hardly any skeptics are going to take the time to scream into the void (and even fewer will be algorithmically-promoted). In itself, the format of most social media platforms disincentivizes nuance and constructive critique.

   At best, a “like” is the most thought people give to posts they agree with before they get distracted again

     @thomasfuchs We should start a Cassandra club. Bonus points if you were out there wearing a mask while people were still laughing at the idea of masks, and extra bonus points if you're still wearing a mask now that people have gone back to laughing at the idea of masks.
