Thank you for this - I have myself been thinking about the "opposition" who are a few people, still endlessly repeating the same familiar doomsday scenarios. The creation of dichotomies is obviously an effective way to play humans: the public (and private) discussion becomes a tennis match, or any sports game of us versus them. Spice it up with the revulsion/disgust of the others, and wow, 80% of people are captured in a useless drama. And meanwhile, reality gets to happen without almost anyone noticing.
