|content=@jason_pontin @JamesOKeefeIII @AndrewYang @MSNBC Ok. The “overwhelming consensus” on the etiology of ulcers? Economists on '''The “Great Moderation”'''?

I mean I thought that the idea of Pentagon videos of UFOs was total bullshit. 

Life just isn’t about consensus. And overwhelming does nothing for this American STEM PhD.

|content=Vaccines are not 100% safe.

Climate science is not simply  “settled science”.

The COVID virus may well have come from the Wuhan Lab.

Not everything @JamesOKeefeIII publishes is automatically false.

@AndrewYang was never covered fairly by @msnbc.

Masks help. 

Your move AP.

You simplistic corporate sons of bitches.

|content=Thanks for the invitation. I can try to explain my concern.

There really *is* a problem w MAGA, Trump, Qanon &amp; conspiracy theories running rampant.  And it will result in death &amp; destruction if it spins out of control.

However it is being fueled by those who claim to fight it.

|content=The entire war over fact checking is a war of 2 low resolution teams.

One team wants absolute freedom to spread wild eyed theories that just about everything is a psyop or a false flag.

The other team wants to impose institutional consensus reality on everyone via media &amp; tech.

|content=Unfortunately, I can’t live under either. So each of the warring parties thinks I’m against them &amp; for the other team. In their mentalities if you aren’t on their simplistic team you are, de facto, working for the other side. There’s no basic concept of *responsible* heterodoxy.

Yes there are/were conspiracies behind [[Jeffrey Epstein|Epstein]], H1B, @MSNBC, PPE, climate science, the '''“Great Moderation”''', Great Reset...everywhere institutions want a “consensus”.

|content=Having spent a good portion of my 20s at Harvard, I know *exactly* how this game works. Our betters sit down and try to figure out how to control others behind closed doors. They see themselves as the intrinsically enlightened people who need to do the thinking for all of us.

When they wanted to pay less for scientists they knew to keep *silent* about [[National Science Foundation|NSF]] [[Labor Shortages|Labor Shortage]] claims even though such shortages don’t exist.

|content=These are the folks who tell you “masks don’t work” rather than “save masks for doctors as we forgot to restock them and moved all manufacturing to China like morons”. They will then spin on a dime to tell you “Only bad dumb people don’t wear masks”. This is the worst of Harvard.

|content=So I don’t want Alex Jones and Qanon nor do I want @TwitterSafety, @msnbc and @Harvard. I see them as very different forms of the same thing: people who want to take away our ability to see clearly.

And, I assure you, @Harvard tries to paint anyone it can’t control as dangerous.

|content=I cannot live in [[Managed Reality TM|Managed Reality ™]] because I think it defeats the purpose of being a human being. It negates being an American. It abdicates responsibility for our children.

I have defeated Harvard about half the times we have fought. How? Because they just aren’t that good.

|content=[[Managed Reality TM|Managed Reality ™]] has a weak spot. It’s not run by our A-team anymore. Fauci isn’t Francis Crick. Biden isn’t Elon. Janet Yellen isn’t Satoshi.

In general, the A-Team is going independent because tech/media/Ed are enforcing way too much conformity through personal destruction.

|content=So why am I worried?

Well, I’ve been trying to save the institutions. It’s probably doomed, but almost no one is trying to do what I do: rescue the institutions from their death spiral by reinserting their critics in positions of prominence (eg Chomsky at MIT). 

Hence my fear.

But I’m a science guy, an American and a dad. And I want my kids to have a particular future.

|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?

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??

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