    Although that was the case until around before covid

    Buddy…

    It was the case for virtually all of known human history…

    Do you really think it was just the scientists like Da Vinci who pretended?

    Most people pretended, and that kept true believers from acting crazy. They followed common sense rules that kept people alive and the people running the show knew it was just boogeymen for the greater good.

    The problem is you have no idea what timeline the discussion you jumped into was and you won’t even ask.

    Have fun with that, but don’t expect any more elaborations.

      That’s what I said, before COVID. After that they decided not to bother anymore.

      Although this is mainly western society pre-constantine. In places like Asia and the Arab world there was no advantage in pretending, quite the opposite. So it’s more pure there.
