Your correct, but she became a useful tool for MSNBC and the Democratic party in the effort to turn any GOP governor who wanted to open their states up into evil, callous villains. As a result, any attempt to inject the reality of her being completely wrong and rightfully fired immediately solicits downvotes from the resident partisan hacks on HN. They don't get the fact that she made false claims in May about a conspiracy to hide deaths, and has a history of being sensationalist and dishonest.

Rebekah Jones reminds me of Alex Jones:

Loyal following, every bad thing that happens to her further bolsters her conspiratorial claims, and she grossly exaggerates her own credentials.

You're not saying she deserved the police raid and neither am I. We are just trying to point out the reality that she isn't some whistleblower hero but that doesn't fit the political narrative that the partisan hacks on here have accepted so we will be downvoted into oblivion.

The partisan hacks will continue to call her a data scientist when she never even called herself that and is not remotely trained for that because it makes their narrative more powerful. That's what politicization does: any statement of fact that counters the narrative will be ignored or rejected or reacted to with hostility.
