Denying lab leak outright, however, WAS an actual conspiracy.
The next day after you looped Andersen in this🧵to help dunk on Cotton's comments, he wrote to Fauci: "genome [was] inconsistent with expectations from evolutionary theory."
1/15🧵A major obstacle to fixing our #LowIQPandemic is "à la carte reality" (ALCR), which is information silo-ization hardened by scaled confirmation bias.
The democratization of information has obvious & great benefits. BUT it's enabled ALCR.
A quick example=Covid "knowledge."
2/ Covid has been such a clusterfuck that I hesitate to analyze how we ended up here in a quick 🧵.
But no matter the diagnosis, we can agree on the result: most ppl have preferred sources for Covid info/narratives.
Now—having preferred sources is NOT *ipso facto* a problem.
3/ But it IS a problem if 99+% of ALL info sources are *fatally* wrong.
Here's a Dunning-Kruger (DK) metaphor.
Those in the top %tile of Covid knowledge—on the "Plateau of Sustainability" like @R_H_Ebright—can see reality but have no way of enlightening (at scale) those below.
Our NIH—& DOD—allowed *and* funded this guy to work with the WIV, find the worst coronaviruses on earth, then genetically modify them to be MORE infective to human tissue.
And now he’s on the WHO committee investigating...himself.
🧵 1/ One mistake I keep seeing from anti-Wokists is describing Wokism as some sort of high-IQ evil.
Completely, 💯% wrong.
This is like describing 2+2=5 as evil. It’s not. It’s dumb.
And because it’s dumb, it spawns what I call “dumb-evil.”
2/ This misperception arises because anti-Wokists see Wokism emanating from elite academic institutions.
But what they don’t realize is that not everyone at these elite institutions is/was, in fact, “elite.”
Wokism spawned from departments dominated by affirmative action hires.
3/ Who majored in these depts?
Students who felt inferior (less educated, lower-IQ groups *just like the Professors themselves*, who were recruited and made to feel superior/oppressed).
Obviously, if you feel out of your depth, you’d major in these welcoming, easy “fields”:
