Chernobyl is an incredible series. One of the few Hollywood products to show the ugly truth of Communism.

In it, the scientists - oft ignored - are the heroes, while the bureaucrats are the antagonists.

This is the message the creators want to leave you with. But it’s wrong.
And dangerous.

Because today, the scientists ARE the bureaucrats. They don’t apply science; they apply persuasion on behalf of the Party.

Look at Fauci. He admitted to lying, essentially. Why? To protect the narrative.

Just like the bureaucrats in Chernobyl.
The covid pandemic is an inverse Chernobyl.

Whereas they covered up a major disaster in 1986 Soviet Russia, today they are inflating a minor problem to grotesque proportions.

They will even kill people to protect the narrative.

We are already Communist.
It’s not the scientists that should be worshiped

It should be the Truth.

Whereas scientists spoke truth to power in 1986 Soviet Russia, today scientists ARE the power.

People change. Different eras bring different cultures.

Truth remains.
And while the creators are shitlibs who can’t extrapolate the principles of their own story beyond anything other than exact parallels, they did an amazing job and I highly recommend watching it.
