August 06, 2020 Unlocked: The New Normal
*UNLOCKED*
By popular demand and because of the viral Trump interview, we're unlocking our episode from July 20th on the normalization of COVID deaths. If you enjoy this episode please become a patron at patreon.com/deathpanelpod
Original show notes below:
We try to explain the narratives and political actions that have allowed coronavirus deaths in the U.S. to be so dramatically normalized, including a major study that may unintentionally play into the argument that COVID patients simply "die sooner" than they otherwise would. But first, we discuss the abductions by federal officers in Portland.
