The Mortal Sin of Anthony Fauci

A reader outside of the US messaged me today and asked me to explain the Right’s incessant attacks on Dr. Anthony Fauci.

From his vantage point some thousands of miles away, he couldn’t understand exactly what was behind the seemingly daily hashtag campaigns calling for his firing, blaming him for the pandemic, and inventing all manner of supposed smoking gun “evidence,” that within a few hours proves to be nothing but manufactured myths than soon dissolve in the raking light of any kind of actual scrutiny.

For those not here on the ground in the States, it’s probably difficult to comprehend how we ended up here: how tens of millions of Americans and the lion’s share of one of its political parties has found a mortal enemy in one of its most respected public health experts, but it’s actually quite simple:

Antony Fauci has sinned against their God.

He had the heretical audacity to oppose their unhinged orange MAGA messiah, and that is simply not something religious zealots tolerate.

The moment in February of 2020, when during another ego-stroking South Carolina rally, Donald Trump labeled the Coronavirus “the Democrats’ new hoax,” he’d set Conservatives down a deadly path they would take all the way to this very moment: a war against facts and truth in a time when millions of lives were in the balance.

As the cases numbers rose exponentially and the deaths began to pile up, Trump did all that he was ever capable of or willing to do: he spoke recklessly, he stoked conspiracy, he passed blame to China and to the media and to the Democrats—and he just made up whatever asinine refuse that came to his head in the moment, without considering the human toll. And as the months went by and the body count grew, his base and his party did what all myopic cult members do: they blindly followed their leader into the moral abyss, they fell prostrate before him, and they looked for enemies to unleash their misguided wrath upon.

And that is why they hate Anthony Fauci: because in press conferences and interviews he became the exhausted conscience of good people. He visibly showed his exasperation, he attempted to inject common sense into the terrifying circus of the president’s continual stream of verbal diarrhea and disinformation—and he did what he has done for decades: he tried to protect people because that’s what he is uniquely qualified to do.

Dr. Fauci is guilty of speaking truth to power.

Here's what power gets you: [trumpdeathclock.com]

When, oh when will we be free of that @#$%&*45's @#$%&?

it seems weird to have someone of renown to put in writing the sentiment that one has made, nearly verbatim, for 6 years now.

Fauci has also been wrong once in a while. That is taken as evidence for corruption and incompetence. Irrelevant is the fact that recommendations and understanding change over time as knowledge accumulates and conditions change. No, it’s corruption and incompetence.

The Doctor






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

I'm totally jealous of Fauci. He's the kind of person I would want to be if I were smarter and more altruistic.

He's my hero. I'd be dead already if not for his his work. (I have Wegener's.)
"He developed effective therapies for formerly fatal inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases such as polyarteritis nodosa, granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly Wegener's granulomatosis), and lymphomatoid granulomatosis."

Wow! The significance of those accomplishments can not be overstated!

And glad you're still kicking, CJ.
