I could spend more time countering reed23's posts, but I see little point in it. You have covered the most egregious of them. However, in the interest of accuracy, regarding this:
"The line referenced was originally quoted by [reed23], with the headline that this was what was actually going on, in response to a post that put the blame for this mess on producers."
I don't think I put the blame on producers. If I gave that impression, I'd like to correct that now. I am no fan of McCollum's as a rule, but I agree with him that Covid is to blame.
Everything about this situation is prototypical. Solutions will not be easy. |
