For the benefit of the press, I will include in this thread the many links debunking Biden's announcement gaffe-of-the-century about the "fine people" hoax. Starting with the transcript. Make sure you read the bottom part. #Biden2020 #FinePeopleHoax

Two articles describing the "fine people" hoax:

By Steve Cortez: bit.ly/2Yc9ZFS

By Joel Pollack bit.ly/2F53Hz7

If you don't believe the transcript, here's the video of the "fine people" press event in which Trump "condemned totally" the racists in Charlottesville: bit.ly/2ujQSvD

When a believer in the "fine people" hoax retreats to "But...but...there were no 'fine people' marching with neo-Nazis," tell them they hallucinated the "marching with" part and show them this NYT article nyti.ms/2FdSb4h and this bit.ly/2WWm14I

For context, here's an older video of Trump quitting the Reform Party because David Duke joined

Here's a compilation clip of Trump Disavowing David Duke and the KKK bit.ly/2USNDXI

Here's David Duke praising representative Omar

And finally, my blog post on why Democrats hear a Secret Racist Dog Whistle and Republicans do not: bit.ly/2K8ZAnL

Remember that story about the Durham filing suggesting the Clinton campaign paid for "spying" on Trump communications before and after the presidency?

CNN and its co-conspirators morphed that into fake news. Here's how....

First, they debunk the claim the Clinton campaign paid for the data. The data was free. They don't mention that Clinton paid lawyers to go get the data to frame Trump (per Durham). That seems important.

Then CNN claims the data all came from before the Trump era. They don't tell you their "debunk" is irrelevant to the story because no one involved in framing Trump (allegedly) cared if the data was accurate. They only cared if it got the job done.

The "I told you so" crowd acts as if we aren't dealing with a far-less-killy-more-spready variant (possibly engineered) in the context of lots more data, vaccines preventing almost all hospital deaths, and dramatically better treatment options.

We're seeing Dunning-Kruger on steroids as the people who were never trained in risk-management got one right-- as they often do -- with the simple rule "Everything experts/politicians do makes things worse."

But that group is only "right" because they are pairing their predictions made under situation A with outcomes happening under situation B. And no, they didn't predict situation B, except in the most obvious ways.

Thread:

Capitalism is a good system because you can populate it with defective humans and it still works better than the alternatives.

Democracy (The Republic) is a good system because you can populate it with selfish and uninformed citizens and often get a good outcome.

Our justice system is good because you can put defective humans into the trial process and still get credible outcomes.

Social Media is the opposite of a good system. When you add flawed humans to social media, things only get worse.

So how could we tweak social media (and the news business) to make it more self-correcting like our better systems?

We learned a lot during the pandemic. For example, we learned we can't tell the difference between the beginning of a pandemic and the end.

We learned that our government will lie to us if they think they have a good reason. Also, they always think they have a good reason.

We learned the difference between "the news" and an organized brainwashing operation. (Summary: There is no difference.)

Here's the Fake News telling you in 2020 that using UV Light as a disinfectant inside the body is a bad idea and (so Trump could be wrong).

usatoday.com/story/news/fac…

Here are the trial results for using light as a disinfectant inside the body. It worked. Conclusion: Trump asked a well-informed question on a topic his own "experts" did not yet know about.

biospace.com/article/releas…

Here's the full transcript of Trump's comments about "injecting a disinfectant" inside the body. Note his references to light at the start and the end are typically edited out for the Fake News clips you have seen. Removing them changes the meaning.
