I subscribe to theNew York Timesand read it most days so that I can understand how its misinformed readers view the world. However, somehow I missed the following Opinion piece from last March.The author is a professor of sociology and public affairs at Princeton University, and I have a hard time believing her assertion that she was simply misled about the origin of SARS-CoV-2.Almost certainly, she knew that “conspiracy theorists” like me and countless others had solid grounds for dismissing the fraudulent paperThe proximal origin of SARS-CoV-2by Andersen, Rambaut, et al., which STILL hasn’t been retracted fromNature Medicine.Because Dr. Peter McCullough — who has been right about everything since he published his Opinion pieceThe great gamble of COVID-19 vaccine developmentinThe HillonAug. 17, 2020— was labelled a “dangerous spreader of misinformation” in 2020, most of the bien pensant New York Times reading crowd was conditioned to dismiss out of hand his papers and Senate testimony.Likewise, I have many old friends and even family members who proudly obtain their information from theNew York Timesand would therefore never read our Substack newsletter.Professor Tufekci was not simply misled; she chose to go along with the lie because the truth did not comport with her position and her identity.Two yearsbeforeshe wrote her Opinion piece about being misled—thereby adding yet another element to this great charade— I published a three-part series titledThe Great SARS-CoV-2 Charadein which I painstakingly presented the documentary evidence of this greatest organized crime in history. The activities and publications of the key players that created the illegal bio-weapon and then concealed its origin are documented for all to see. I remain astonished that all of them aren’t already in prison.Subscribe nowShare
