Cowardice and Covid

There is a form of cowardice that refuses to believe that danger exists, even when it is patent. I believe that is what we are seeing in the surrender to covid.

And that explains Abbott and DeSantis and Trump: they let cowards believe they are brave, true, right and upstanding. And the cowards will not abandon their belief, for then they would have to face their cowardice.

  1. Thank you. I never understood that before. If you pretend it doesn't exist, you don't have to face your fears. I will remember that.
