Fox News host Tucker Carlson appeared to join those demanding a move to re-open society as soon as possible when he said during his show last night “the virus isn’t nearly as deadly as we thought it was.”

Carlson questioned why the San Francisco Bay area was expanding its lockdown for another five weeks until the end of May.

“What is the scientific justification for doing that?” he asked. “They didn’t tell us because there is none. None.”

Tucker said that “radical steps” necessary to “flatten the curve” were proposed and that curve has now been flattened, “but it’s likely not because of the lockdowns, the virus just isn’t nearly as deadly as we thought it was.”

“It turned out not to be, hospitals never collapsed, outside of a tiny number of places they never came close to collapsing – at least not from an influx of patients,” he concluded.

Carlson’s view that the lockdowns should now be lifted because the virus wasn’t as deadly as first feared is noteworthy because at the beginning of the crisis, he wasn’t one to take coronavirus lightly.

As we highlighted back in mid-March, Carlson reportedly drove to Mar-a-Lago to warn President Trump that the coronavirus outbreak was a massive threat and urged him to take it more seriously.

There's a pithy 45-second clip of him saying how wrong we were about the virus's power to wreck and bother us. Please remember, all, Daily Stormer was the first to call BS on the WHOLE thing.

Speaking of polarities, anybody notice how differently it's been treated in north vs south? As always yankee politicians have been far more tyrannical and hateful. At last, now that it's safe for them to do it, the MI legislature has informed the state's lawless governess that THEY will decide when life returns to 'normal', not she -- or at least that's what I heard somewhere.
