Now we all comply with, stand together, and not put the lice in skindpelsen. We have a crisis, and therefore there is a need for us to against our leaders from criticism and give them the space and peace to get us all in the best way possible through it here.
No.
Although several expressions for the above position on social media and in the public debate, then it is a fallacy to believe that we do not need to be critical of how power and resources are used – perhaps especially in an emergency situation as the ongoing.
Yes, the health workforce at the country’s hospitals work and the slider in the in coronaens frontline. And thank you for it! But of course, it is still perfectly legitimate to question whether we are doing things the right way.
Yes, the national board of Health Søren Brostrøm has been clearly communicating and very confidence-inspiring, but it is of course entirely appropriate to ask the critical check as to why we, already long before the corona evolved into a crisis, had problems with obtaining protective equipment in the health sector, why we ignored or underestimated the numerous warnings from the WHO about how bad the spread of infection could be, and why, along the way apparently has been different want to deal with the crisis with the Danish Health and medicines authority and Statens Serum Institut.
Yes, prime minister Mette Frederiksen has been pretty rank at the helm in the storm, but of course, it is entirely appropriate to ask the critical check as to whether we have closed the society for the dramatically down, if she spends too much time on Facebook and sing, or whether it is timely to go so violently to the approach in relation to the population’s freedoms, as has been the case with the various special laws.
And when Mette Frederiksen, as announced on Monday to inform about, how you can hopefully begin a gradual opening of society, it will – despite the euphoria, the scent of normalization may lead to – again be completely appropriate to ask the critical if it is now too fast, now too slow, now too much, now too little.
It is not necessarily that someone must have a notch in the spout, although it of course may well happen in the process.
It is about critical thinking is what elevates our society forward and upward. We must question as much as possible, to challenge as much as possible, be the most critical of how the power in our society be used.
You can criticise the media and other critics to focus on the hairs in the soup, but it is only to find flaws, deal with them, admit them, if we have committed them, learn from them, that we can be smarter.
this is Why it is quite sensible, when former prime minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen suggests that we are on the other side of the coronakrisen establish a commission to examine the handling of it, as he did here at B. T. the other day.
the Commissions have a built-in risk of becoming political battlefields, and of course, you could argue that Loop idea sounds a little strange, in light of the fact that he in 2015 was to shut down the Iraq-commission to investigate the foundation for Denmark krigsdeltagelse in Iraq and Afghanistan.
the Loop seem to believe that it is more important to get looked critically at the socialists and Mette Frederiksen’s handling of coronakrisen, than it was to get looked critically at the Fogh Rasmussen government and the comings and goings in its time.
But in any case he has a point in the day.
For only by looking critically at all aspects of the current crisis and the handling of the we can do us hope to cope with the next pandemic even better. So, on with the critical eye, thanks.
