💉 On Sunday, the Atlantic ran a horrible op-ed (“Ideas”) penned by former NIH Director Francis Collins titled, “Why Didn’t Facing a Common Enemy Bring Us Together? By “common enemy”, Collins meant covid, not his own overfunded health agency, but you’ll be forgiven for not immediately recognizing that.
As the NIH Director during the pandemic, Collins was ostensibly Anthony Fauci’s boss, but Fauci earned more than twice as much as Collins and headed the White House covid team, not Collins. So.
In his awful op-ed, which was a weird blend of victim blaming combined with a halfhearted mea culpa, Collins decried pandemic misinformation and political partisanship, right before repeating the long-debunked “bleach injection” hoax about his own boss, President Trump.
Pot, meet kettle.
Collins also trumpeted his much-advertised evangelical Christian faith, right before dunking on his Christian brothers and sisters for being hysterical deplorables and knuckle-dragging science deniers who concluded the covid shots were the Mark of the Beast.
Which was just one more in a long series of straw man arguments from the so-called ‘man of science.’
At bottom, Collins deplored citizens’ lost trust in the biomedical security state and in its primary sacrament, the holy vaccine. Collins astonishingly claimed he believes that, eventually, the covid jabs will someday be recognized as man’s greatest achievement, which might be true when the only people left on the planet are deranged cannibalistic depopulationists and irradiated cockroaches.
Collins generously conceded that scientists like himself should’ve been less sure about everything and should have admitted that their recommendations were best guesses based on limited information — the exact opposite of everything he said at the time. Collins never grappled with his disgraceful campaign to cancel and smear other experts, like Stanford Professor Jay Bhattacharya, and other legitimate scientists for disagreeing with his “best guesses.”
The former director doubled-down on lockdowns, claiming they’d been effective to flatten the curve and to stop hospitals from being overwhelmed in the first covid wave, but he then blamed parents and teachers for letting school lockdowns last too long. Not the scientists who testified at every school board meeting citing CDC guidance, whom Collins did not mention.
You need not read the article, which was a waste of space even in the mostly-useless Atlantic. Francis Collins is a lifelong bureaucrat whose career was ended by his own great incompetence, not politics. His unrepentant Atlantic half-apology was too little, too late, and too clueless.
Fauci, Collins, and Lane must hang for their treasonous cooperation with the CCP in gain-of-function research. In fact, I suspect that they themselves led the CCP into it, and not the other way around. They knew that this research is illegal in America, so they conducted it in China to as a way to hide their nefarious activities.
