Charade

The Covid Lies That Crushed A Nation

By: David Marcus

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

THIS BOOK IS DOUBLE MASKED FOR YOUR SAFETY.

The Coronavirus crisis led to the most extreme and widespread suspension of constitutional freedoms in American history, despite being based on myths and lies.

From the beginning of the Coronavirus crisis in March of 2020, the media and politicians engaged in myths, half-truths, and even flat-out lies to bring about obedience from the populace. Charade tackles these myths one by one, laying bare the brazen power grab by governors, experts, and corporations all seeking to bend the American people to their will. David Marcus combines his reporting on the Coronavirus crisis with a cultural deep dive into how those in power used the emergency to consolidate power and change the very concept of American freedoms. Government, media, advertisers, and scientists all sought to set an agenda to strip Americans of their rights. From church attendance to running a business, right down to how many people can be in a private home, few rights were left wholly unchecked. What’s worse is that any challenge to the holy laws of lockdowns were criticized and censored as dangerous and deadly speech. The question that remains is whether Americans will ever allow this to happen again.

Now the lies of 2020 can be revealed. No, Americans weren’t all in it together. It was not as simple as “trust the science.” Donald Trump was not a villain, Andrew Cuomo was not a hero, and lockdowns did vastly more harm than good. As America awakens from the nightmare of the Coronavirus crisis, it must learn lessons from it—but the first step is an honest accounting of all the rank dishonesty.

AI narration is horrible

The substance and the story of this book is incredible and would have gotten a five-star across the board but they decided to have an AI narrate it and the fact that it can't pronounce the word virus correctly when this is about a virus and the fact that it talked about the news outlet USA ... And then what it thought started was a new sentence called today instead of saying USA today. This is a horrible injustice to this incredible book! there are so many more examples that I could share but they just become redundant because of how horrible this AI is and it's not like they even went back and listen to it to correct the issues It was let's feed this into AI and whatever it comes out with we're going to put up here on audible..... HORRIBLE!
