|content=The Year is 2005. A tiny number of heretics are yelling that the entire economics profession &amp; all major central bankers are wrong.

“There is no [[Great Moderation]]. All the ‘Experts’ are wrong. They have built a financial time bomb.”

Q: Would Twitter ban &amp; downrank the heretics?

|content=I was one of them. So was @nntaleb. 
I remember Nassim being publicly ridiculed by the most prestigious people in finance at Cannes.

@jack: Would @TwitterSafety know that everything was flipped? That the bad guys were the Fed and the Professors. The good guys were the gadflies??

|content=Jack: your team is failing. You are endangering us all by confusing dissenters with safety concerns. Wake up. You don’t have the wisdom for Twitter to play god with our ability to talk to each other and suppress heterodox dissent. 

This isn’t Twitter’s right as a platform.

|content=My 1st paper on '''Mortgage Backed Security Valuation problems''' was [[Peer Review|peer reviewed]] in 2001. After 4-5 years of constant “chicken little” style  ridicule at conference after conference, I gave up.

Thank god @nntaleb did not. @jack: your team is out of control.

|content=You’re not being truthful about economics. 

I’m sorry. But at a purely technical level, you are just not being truthful about markets, economics and economists. I say this without an axe to grind as a huge promoter of your earlier work when you were trying to understand the 🌎.

|content="I've never seen anything as bad as the determination of a lot of people to say it's a recession," Krugman said. "It's above and beyond anything I've ever seen." -@paulkrugman

Would you like to talk about the [[Boskin Commission]] &amp; the @BLS_gov pretending to move to a COLA for [[CPI]]?

|content=Would you be interested in discussing an entire field of economic experts laughing for 5-8 years at those of us who tried to warn the world about the impending danger of '''Mortgage Backed Securities''' during the “[[Great Moderation]]”?

|content=Would you be interested in discussing the treatment of [[Borjas Rectangle Theory|George Borjas]] by economists for pointing out that [[Immigration]] actually carries costs &amp; redistributes wealth rather than a miracle free lunch that simply cannot do anything harmful?

Etc. Etc.

Because that is all much worse.
