"I love how the 460,000 "deplorables" that showed up in Sturgis contributed to 266,796 additional cases of COVID-19, but the tens of millions of BLM protesters all across the nation did not contribute to a single additional case"
So do I, altho I wouldn't say "not even a single additional case". There were undoubtedly some. How could Sturgis spread so many? Maybe one of them went to this or a similar wedding.
 A summer wedding in southwest Minnesota is the source of at least 70 coronavirus cases,

Maybe another went to church, a Trump rally, several bars, or several campgrounds on the way home.. However, 266K is the worst case scenario. It will prolly be less.
’Worst case scenarios’ at Sturgis rally could link event to 266,000 coronavirus cases, study says
The San Diego State University researchers noted that although restrictions on large-scale gatherings are “ubiquitous,” there has been “little empirical evidence on the contagion dangers.” They previously analyzed the effects of Black Lives Matter protests and President Trump’s Tulsa rally. Neither caused significant increased spread of the virus, they concluded, possibly because those events were offset by increases in other residents staying home.

"This is what passes as 'science' these days."
It was from San Diego State University’s Center for Health Economics & Policy Studies, so I would call it economics.
