Government bureaucrats are the least-trustworthy people I can imagine to be the sole arbiters of truth. They operate as part of an extortion-funded territorial monopoly in violence which relies on secrecy and propaganda as an essential part of day-to-day operations. Just looking at COVID alone, we see how many common-sense warnings about the virus and vaccine got people banned, yet a few months later, the officials and their lapdog media begrudgingly had to admit to the same facts those "misinformation outlets" warned about?
