Did you also make note of the things that they were correct about, or did you fixate on exaggerations which did not play out?

- cttrhow 6y agoProbably some small scale predictions were right, but I did not maintain a complete log of everything that was said. The general picture about when and how things will go to hell did not play out. This is the single thing I care about most - that disaster scenario did not happen in two-three weeks, despite being predicted many times. And most of the time it wasn't a "balanced" prediction like "if we are unlucky millions die, but most likely only few thousands"; it was more often than not pure fear mongering. Also, I think it's really uncharitable to use the word "fixate" here.
