Truth decay
July 31, 2020•186 words
It's kind of funny that the RAND project on truth decay has a Twitter hashtag (#truthdecay). I mean, point people at one of the big agents of truth decay so they can read lies about your project on truth decay: that makes sense.
If you care about the truth, stop wasting your time on Twitter and Facebook: delete your accounts and never look at them again.
While I'm here:
If you work for Facebook, quit.
It is morally indefensible for you to use your skills to make that company more powerful. By working there, you are making the world an objectively worse place. I'm sure you can find a job working for a company that you don't have to apologize for all the time.
You can do it. I believe in you.
And in fact:
If you work for Facebook, you are a white supremacist.
If you have a "friend" who works at Facebook, cut them out of your life, like you would your racist cousin.
You can do it. I believe in you.
