Donald Trump telling people not to “feel sorry” for a sick Joe Biden because he’s “vicious” isn't strength—it's pure cruelty. Nothing says "Christian values" quite like Donald Trump mocking an ill man and demanding an end to basic empathy. Absolute trash behavior from a small, weak man.

I hate the hindsight bias & revisionist history fuelled "middle ground fallacy" emerging (in media, politically, etc) around the attack on Fauci.
We all (read: those who support science, justice, rationality, decency, reality...) need to stand against the lies, spin, and corruption.

“Narcissists' desire for attention, affirmation and control makes them more likely to favour in-person work because it ‘offers richer channels for controlling and commanding reverence from employees.’”
Boss wants you back in the office full time? New research suggests there may be personal motives behind it | CBC News
As more employees are being ordered back into the office full time, new research suggests the rationale may be more about bosses' desire for power and status than productivity.
