It's Time Those Who Sold Out America Face Genocide And Crimes Against...

• By James Howard Kunstler

By now, everybody and his uncle has seen Emily Oster's plea for "pandemic amnesty" in The Atlantic magazine, a house organ of the people in America who know better than you do about… really… everything. Emily's wazoo is so stuffed with gold-plated credentials (BA, PhD, Harvard; economics prof at Brown U) it's a wonder that she could sit down long enough to peck out her lame argument that "we need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID." 

Emily wasn't "in the dark." She had access to the same information as the Americans who recognized that everything the public health authorities, the medical establishment, and many elected officials shoveled out about Covid and its putative remedies and preventatives was untrue, with a patina of bad faith and malice — especially when it was used to persecute their political adversaries. 

These dissenters turned out to be "right for the wrong reasons," she declared, the main reason being that they were not aligned in good-think with the Woke-Jacobinism of her fellow "progressives" at Brown U, and academics all across the land, who were righteously busy destroying the intellectual life of the nation, making it impossible for the thinking class to think. 

Let's face it: every society actually needs a thinking class, a cohort able to frame important issues-of-the-moment that require vigorous discussion in the public arena to align our collective thoughts and deeds with reality. America used to have a pretty good thinking class, with a pretty good free press and many other platforms for opinion — all animated by respect for the First Amendment to the Constitution.
