I often come back to this 🧵 on how humans react to realizing they were conned. It’s so humiliating that it’s described as a form of social death. So what’s next?
“The mark can simply deny the con… saves their pride & cheats social death but allows the con to continue unchecked”

Remember the heartbreaking videos of unvaccinated individuals in the ICU denying they had covid? I don’t think we should expect many of the individuals that were misled into believing covid is no longer a threat to their health or to their loved ones to react any differently…
To clarify, I don’t expect to see anything as extreme as those ICU videos. The denial I expect we’ll see (and I’m already seeing it) is many individuals denying that their post covid health issues or those of their loved ones are in any way related to the virus.
In other words, for those who think increasing instances of FAFO will change our course, I’m not so sure.
