Current Events > Man people are going to believe these Fauci emails are actually damaging :/

(+) Yeah! (+)

I think Ive gone through all the emails of importance and theres.. nothing there. I dont see much coverage of it. Go to Fox News of course, front page headlines. Even saw one on yahoo news today. Theyre going to hold rallys and people are going to believe this shit now smh.

Fauci is daddy.

---

*In Ron Howard's voice* None of them had read past the words 'Fauci leaks.'

---

I already have a co-worker just like that.

His head is so knee deep into Faux News horseshit I don't even talk politics with him anymore.

It's just...sad.

Somehow, him telling a person that they don't necessarily need to wear a mask for that specific situation in February of 2020 means that masks are ineffective and he was lying the whole time.

---

What are these Fauci emails anyway? Just regular old boring banter between doctors that QAnon is making out to sound sinister?

RIP Man People

Early on, when the CDC were still trying to discern effective action against the virus, it was believed COVID may be too small to be prevented by a mask. Once this was found to be false and the statistics showed that masks are effective, they quickly turned it around to enforce wearing masks. The emails are basically conversations on how to best counteract it, but anti-maskers are viewing this as Fauci lying and flip-flopping, when it has more to do with discussion on how to handle a mysterious new virus.

It also has several redacted and blocked out information, which EVERY government memo has. Given that it's emails, it's probably personal info.

Or masks are effective and he was lying, but fuck masks anyway because muh freedom or something

Trying to make the fact that someone emailed people about stuff ever sound like a smoking gun is such a great strategy when nobody ever reads them.

keep in mind that he was balancing everything he said against the fact that the trump administration was watching him under a microscope and looking for any excuse to fire him.

tbqh i think biden should have replaced him when he came into office, purely because fauci spent so much time trying to pussyfoot around the topic. i get why he did it, it kept him in an important position that trump would have filled with a wacko that had no fucking clue what he was doing, but its pretty well tarnished his reputation.

How would Biden replace someone who isn't in an appointed position?

by asking them to step down and expecting a decent civil servant who understood his reputation was in shambles and that he'd become an anchor dragging down his department to do the right thing? you know, how politics are supposed to work?

Why should people step down when they are right?

Go to Fox News

I mean the February email is legitimately what they were telling the public at the time. It wasn't "a secret"

That's what makes this even crazier. They basically got some emails and went "these are a huge deal!!!!" and they're... not?

I don't see what the point would be. The media machine would get to work on the next person's reputation before they even start. I'm also unsure how his reputation is in shambles outside of Q types.

maybe not, and nothing is going to stop the worst offenders, but there's no reason to keep around the focal point of that bullshit. his position has become political, its been that way for well over a year now, and that heat isn't going to die down any time soon with him in the position.

If I was Fauci, they would have to drag me away in chains and I would take down anyone I could with me if they did that just because idiots are mad.

He's not in a political position.

He's not in a political position.

could have fooled me, seeing that he's been doing press conferences with politicians for over a year...

with him at the helm, his office has become political. is it fair to hold him responsible for that? maybe not, but it doesn't change the fact that by hanging onto the position he's not fixing that issue.

The head of an institute of the NIH never has and never will be a political position. I think you have very little idea of what you're talking about.

and i generally think you're full of shit and intentionally missing the point, but to each their own yeah?

This is a career scientist's position. Asking them to step down because of politics is ludicrous.

---

e-mails? I guess I hadn't realized that was the hot topic of today.
I thought the other thread going on about his interview and opinion.

Guess I should google this. But wtf... is this more russia leaking someone e-mails?

How has it become political other than "republicans don't like him because orange man said he's bad"

---

"Everything has become political, so scientists and doctors should be canceled to make conservatives feel better"

---

but his emails

---

All those scientist talking about global warming should resign, their jobs/positions/reputations have been politicized. By hanging on to their positions theyre not fixing the issue.
