      I’m going back and forth about this @TheAtlantic piece It is SO difficult to read As @jabarocas wrote - it insults & dismisses so many sacrifices made But it also represents a hard truth of how millions of Americans view & have dealt w COVID 1/https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/12/where-i-live-no-one-cares-about-covid/620958/ …

      Should @TheAtlantic have published it? It conveys what I consider deadly beliefs. But it’s so representative of the thinking of very many citizens that I also think it’s good for many people to read - to gain understanding of how people are thinking - regardless of the data 2/

      So I’m really on the fence. Perhaps it should be published w a warning on top. But that is a very slippery slope of censorship and Reenforcing divisions and information bubbles on both sides 3/

      I’m all for publishing a wide range of views. But I think that piece doesn’t represent much of anything. It certainly doesn’t represent most Americans—even those who oppose some measures. He’s performing “I represent real America”—as a professional act, and not doing it well.

      I actually agree with you the topic is important, what you describe is very real and it deserves careful reporting. This just wasn't it. Lots of buzzwords very much aimed at the other side of the professional/social class he is part of, while falsely claiming to be typical.

          He is getting exactly what he wants, sharing and clicks. The right will share because of the headline. The left will click to either debunk/add more perspective etc or to read and be able to share and say "See doomsday scenario" Good information was never the point.

          (nods)Only unprofessional, unforced error I've seen him do has been 2 act like no one really should care for a few days. The ratio has turned out to be such, however, that he's had to drop the act. & has been trying to motte-&-bailey* that no one cares, regardless if they should.
