But this is like p2p stuff. Except for the "source", which, I concede could indeed be one, two, or more state-sponsored actors warring, on top of troll attempts.

Still: How exhaustive of a government campaign would be needed to effectively muzzle people in online public spaces? I wish we could figure out a way to beat the crazies back by greater society mocking them, but their echo chambers are deep, and most of us actively avoid their online circles. I genuinely don't know if it's possible to regulate against stuff like QAnon.

Re: the two trillion dolladollabillya'lls already "spent"? Well, now would be a great time for me to begin inquiring who will foot the bill for mass production of the vaccine. Because

The stimulus package adds $27 billion to an emergency fund that could give a boost to dozens of projects by pharmaceutical companies and academic groups developing drugs and vaccines against coronavirus. The emergency fund received a smaller amount of funding under a coronavirus response act signed earlier in March. There is no Covid-19 vaccine, but dozens are in development.

is definitely not going to cover that.
