My post on CYA over Kung Flu precipitated a nice discussion and I'm going to reproduce it here.
Bill H. said:
These "scientists" go shooting their mouths off before they actually study the subject because they want to be the first ones to be quoted on the subject, because they want to be the first and smartest in the public eye. Then when facts come out, instead of admitting that they were full of shit, that they didn't know what they were talking about, they tell us that "new facts have emerged."
They are liars. The "new facts" that emerged were not "new facts,""facts."
Dana Mathewson replied:
The second of the three key points was interesting: "But changing your mind based on new evidence is a badge of honor in the scientific community." I'm not certain that means what the MSM thinks it does, but they'll push the hell out of it. Given the percentage of dolts who believe the MSM, when "scientists" reverse themselves, it's "Wow, look, they've got a new slant, it must be true." Yes, if a true scientist finds new evidence that proves he was wrong, he's happy and is glad to publicize it. Is that really what's happening here, considering most of these "scientists" are political hacks? And it usually takes years for this kind of thing to happen, not four or five weeks. I'm suspicious.
Kinda makes it hard to know who to believe these days, but as far as I'm concerned, pay attention to what makes sense and ignore the rest. Especially the conspiracy freaks, like the old friend of mine who insisted that G.H.W. Bush was a Nazi.
And my 2P:
Dana, you say:
"Kinda makes it hard to know who to believe these days, but as far as I'm concerned, pay attention to what makes sense and ignore the rest. Especially the conspiracy freaks, like the old friend of mine who insisted that G.H.W. Bush was a Nazi."
That is a great point. What happens so often these days is that conspiracy theories flourish and they hide the activities being done in plain sight by the Left. I'm pretty sure the Progressives fund people to crank these crazy theories out just to muddy the waters. How much Soros money goes to doing that? Soros doesn't conspire; he acts pretty much in plain sight. The key is to hide it behind a blanket of conspiracy theories so when you say "George Soros funded the Ferguson riots" for instance, a sizable group will call you a conspiracy nut, like the guys who think old man Bush was a Nazi. And the majority of a-politcal types will then think you are a nut - even though Soros himself may admit he spent money on such things.
