Jeremy, I wasn’t sure if you were addressing me or someone else—or maybe you’re referring to the Covidians I was doing battle with? In any case, I agree that the left has fallen prey to groupthink, ingroup bias, and other cognitive biases that have made many of them susceptible to the COVID narrative and other propaganda. I think the most devious stratagem of those programming the NPCs was the cultivation of TDS as that has been incredibly effective at cementing groupthink and enabling TPTB to point them in any direction they desire. That said, I have been surprised to find some rare pockets of reason on the left when it comes to the COVID narrative. Left Lockdown Sceptics (https://leftlockdownsceptics.com/), for example, and Addison Reeves, who penned this essay lambasting progressivism (https://leftlockdownsceptics.com/2021/08/the-pandemic-response-as-contemporary-imperialism/) as well as this compelling piece on why she won’t submit (https://off-guardian.org/2021/08/07/its-just-why-i-wont-submit/). One of the things I have appreciated is finding people across the political spectrum who have not fallen under the spell of mass hypnosis, and it is encouraging to see people rising above their partisan divides to decry tyranny together.
