Saw him a long time ago in San F as the lead in the play “Good” about a doc who gradually, unknowingly, slips into working for some unsavory folks. The big moment: when there’s an emotional climax and both sides of the stage unfurl the Nazi flags. Wow.

But, if you’ve never seen “Eyewitness” (not “Witness”) then you MUST. It stars a bunch of people that weren’t quite so popular back in 1981:
William Hurt
Sigourney Weaver
James Woods
Christopher Plummer
Pamela Reed
and Morgan Freeman.
With some great dialogue. Seriously - watch this amazing film.

I confess the name didn't ring a bell but there's been a little bit of a Wipers revival lately.

Just as one example, Bill Gates has given billions of dollars. Any recipient would surely go along with the messages of the day. They certainly would not rain on the parade and end their career by publicly objecting to anything. 
He's given 300+ million dollars to public radio.
your local yoga studio gives nothing
So local public radio stations and the NPR are cheerleading anything and everything that induces fear and helps the public health vaccination drive. Boosters, testing, cases, deaths, all packaged up to get you vaccinated!! Let's help the herd reach it's goals.

Right from the beginning one of the notable aspects of this pandemic was a huge desire to increase everybody's isolation many people have been de-platformed off of Facebook many people lost good community culture jobs you know going into an office and having a routine that's all gone so they wanted everybody isolated and alone. The masks is another big part of that.

North American health outcomes are atrociously bad and ideally that should be addressed though to date there has been virtually no discussion of this despite SARS CoV2 being a respiratory disease.    Not so long ago, Case and Deaton published evidence that white American males were facing lower life expectancies.  Turns out that whether one has a 4-year university degree or not was a significant factor.   Very few are paying attention to this.

Life expectancy falling for adults without a bachelor’s degree

Agreed. There is a LOT there.  Stress, diet, occupation, and a ton of other things all contribute.  It was easy to increase life expectancy 40 years ago...cut out smoking and let the improved healthcare system keep you going.   Now, the baseline is higher, and the unintended consequences of eating out, portion size, stress, and God knows what else are starting to impact life expectancy.  A college degree is loosely associated with income, and it's hard to eat avocado and quinoa on the cheap.  

It's a real problem, but who's got time to address it when everyone is so damn depressed and alone?
