Call me Occam. Of course it’s chance and simple human stupidity (and greed). This isn’t to say that’s always the case.
E.g. The Holocaust. The who is Hitler and the why is ethnic cleansing. One sentence.
What is the analogous sentence for Covid-19 response ? Fauci is the who, and his megalomaniac personality is the why? This sounds good (to me) but has millions of holes.
I’m offering Political Correctness is the who, avoiding discrimination is the why. This is admittedly poorly written (I’m not a written word wizard), but it’s fairly complete and rational. Help me construct this theory.
