For fauci/the cdc:

  • The whole mask are useless lie is probably the big one.
  • There's also the immediate dismissal of lab leak theories.
  • Continuing to recommend cloth masks after studies showed they were either useless or became saturated and may exacerbate spread.

For state actions:

  • Lockdowns were never part of the recommended approach, that wasn't a scientific recommendation.
  • There were the arbitrary rules like wearing a mask in a restaurant unless you were sitting that had no science behind them.
  • There were rules like no motorized boats, but non motorized is acceptable.
  • Closing schools despite most experts citing the long term affects harming development, also little evidence that kids were at any significant risk from covid.
  • Classifying tents with walls and igloos as outdoors to avoid mask restrictions.
  • Keeping mask rules while outdoors for well after it was established there's basically 0 chance of outdoor spread for covid.

More generally:

  • The obsession with surface cleaning despite evidence for surface transmission being nearly impossible being established very early.
  • Criticizing anti mask protests for not being safe, but completely ignoring the same issue with blm protests.
  • the overwhelming save all lives at all costs advocacy, which isn't even policy in normal times.

So you're a straight-up Qanon cultist, correct? Nice work.

It's much h easier to say that then attempt any refutation of a single argument. I must have missed the ad hominem step of the scientific method.
