Death of Diamond and the Rescinding of Privilege

The death of Diamond, from the duo Diamond and Silk, serves as an example of how "privilege" is revoked when an individual dissents from the systemic narrative. The hosts highlight the vitriolic social media reactions to her passing as evidence of a system that only protects those who follow its rules. They also criticize new California laws that penalize doctors for "misinformation," contrasting this with the shifting medical advice provided by Dr. Anthony Fauci.
