But as you say, some will rewrite history and pretend they agreed all along.
Masks are a good example of this. Back in the beginning when the 'experts' were telling the truth that masks are useless, the virtue signallers dutifully repeated their message. Once the 'experts' did a 180 and began pretending that masks work, the virtue signallers reversed their opinion without skipping a beat, and began worshipping masks.
They will do the same when more and more conspiracy theories are confirmed as truth. It's kind of like 'Europe has always been at war with Eurasia' but in reverse.
Some will rationalize, yes.
