A very successful, sharp fellow (I have known since college) and I had a conversation in early July about covid. He's 2nd in command at a manufacturing plant, totally bought into the lies behind covid. We've been friends for many decades, yet when I started debunking covid he got defensive, so I stopped to bring his emotion back to a low level. All I could come up with beyond urging him to research a few topics and watch the insanity, was that I was sure he would have a different perspective after the next 6 months (post election). He referenced Gates, "He's a smart guy, he knows what he's talking about." I hope my good friend wakes up. "Be careful who you trust."
