Reading the Subtext Aloud

Jonah returns for the weekend Ruminant to address the growing unease he gets from the national protest movements. What’s going to be more damaging: the protests, or the massive overcorrection from the critics of the protests? With a little bit of perspective, it should be easy to see that everyone is manipulating data for their own ends - the epidemiologists, the protesters, and, of course, the Executive (to put it politely). Show Notes: -This week's G-File -Wednesday's "news"letter -Epidemiologists shift from social distance to social justice -The Remnant Twitter AI asking for audience suggestions -Epidemiologists insisting that you can’t go to church -The heartening history of American racial attitudes over time -Part of Jonah's review of The Defining Moment -The St. John’s Church photo op - already adorned with a Wikipedia page
