There is no ‘coming together’ with the denial of facts. The ‘left’ did not create ‘sides’. I believe the leaders on the ‘right’ created a public health crisis by fanning the flames of anti-science to fill their donation coffers and put people at risk. There definitely could have been more lives saved, and it’s not by denying facts but by accepting facts as facts and not demonizing our public health officials such as Dr Fauci. The ‘right’ is clearly in the wrong (as our hospitals are filled now with the unvaccinated) and bending our policies to make the stupid happy is not only inhumane, but not a rationale approach in governance. The approach should be to attack the misinformation, ban and penalize public voices that advocate mistruths, and remove funds from public officials using misinformation to fill their coffers. As the ‘right’ loved to portray: Facts don’t care about your feelings
