    Alternatively, the sky didn’t fall last time so it probably won’t fall this time.

      If you remember that parable, the sky actually did fall that last time.

      Also, for the 1.2 million Americans who died from Covid, the sky did fall last time.

        If you remember the lesson of that parable, no one believes the chicken when the sky falls and the chicken has no one to blame but himself. You can’t keep saying it’s the most important election of our lifetimes because we stop believing it.

        And maybe the sky falls this time, but it’s the chicken’s fault that we don’t believe it.
