    It’s easier to fool someone than to convince them they’d been fooled.

    A lot of people have stuck their neck out by saying with certainty that the virus didn’t leak from a lab in China and anyone who thought otherwise is probably a racist and a republican.

    It’s next to impossible for those people to take responsibility for being incorrect, so they just double and triple-down on being wrong. It’s ironic because they like to believe they’re the voice of reason.
