"Give it time"

I bring this up not to say he& #39;s shit at this (though he is) but the point out that lots of people with loud voices here contribute only bullshit

Do not trust the bullshitters.

They paper their opinions with numbers & data they don& #39;t understand, they make predictions, they influence opinions.

But they don& #39;t care about the truth. They don& #39;t care about the people who listen to them or trust them. They are shitty people.

When the moment finally came where educating people and helping them understand something dangerous and new was a vitally important task, the people who should have been good at that fucked it up hard.

And they told you to hate people who were telling you the truth.

Make sure you remember all the predictions from all the people who didn& #39;t have the slightest clue what was going on but acted like they did.

Remember all the viral tweets and shitty articles that carelessly spread bullshit. Put those people on a list and never trust them again.

Don& #39;t think this is a lefty thing, either.

There are so many right-wingers out here who are pushing their agenda at a time when agendas DON& #39;T MATTER. Education, understanding, and honesty matter. Admitting you are wrong and asking why matters.
