Someone needs to come up with a catchy name for a variant of the Gell Mann Amnesia effect where you know a source is willing to bend their presentation of facts for their agenda but ignore that knowledge when their aligns to your agenda. Because IMO that's a far bigger issue in 2021 than people innocently taking things at face value.
