It has always been like this, we're just starting to notice now. The fascinating thing to observe is that they're still continuing to lie as if nothing changed, even though they get called out for it on Twitter via community notes or quote tweets. Not even a reaction, apology or correction. They just continue lying.
- moomin 3y agoNot quite true: it’s amazing how many mainstream media figures have nasty things to say about social media.
- verisimi 3y agoThis is true. And what it tells you, is that they are unapologetic about the lies. They are acting in bad faith. When an honest man discovers he is mistaken, he will either cease being mistaken, or he will cease being honest.
- MrBuddyCasino 3y agoIts hard to tell sometimes, there are certainly a lot of midwit true believers, and the capacity of man to hold contradicting beliefs at the same time seems boundless. But yeah, at some point one gets really disillusioned.
- verisimi 3y agoBeing disillusioned sounds bad... but it's also necessary to live in truth. You can't be subject to illusions and live in truth.
