Yep. I went over to a friends dad's shop to have a couple beers with him. He watches CNN non stop all day unless he is out golfing. He was absolutely appalled that I suggested that this covid thing is overblown. When I tried to explain to him that according to the official statistics only the elderly are dying from this virus he told me "Lots of young people are dying....LOTS! It's from all that partying they are doing". I made him look at health canada's website and see the statistics for himself. He just said to me "Ok, you were right...but uhhh...I was a little bit right too....I'm going to bed now, goodnight". With any luck he may just learn something instead of digging himself into denial.
I'm pretty sure it has to do with the whole "Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times" quote.

They can't admit that they've been fed and perpetuated the lies that brought us to present day.... so why start now.
