|content=I would like to talk to @MickWest and @michaelshermer and @francis_collins and  @neiltyson and @seanmcarroll and @nytimes about the role of debunking and discrediting professionals who do not buy into narratives that are later found to be cover stories about national interest.

|content=Biden is sharp as a tack (anti-neuroscience).
COVID came from a wet market pangolin (anti biology).
'''The CPI is a Cost of Living measure (anti-mathematical economics).'''
All humans should be represented equally in all elite activities (anti-Evolution).
There is only one theory in fundamental physics (anti mathematics and physics).
We have labor shortages in STEM (Anti market economics).
Vaccines are absolutely  safe (anti-medicine).
Steel Buildings just collapse like that (anti structural engineering).
Etc.
That is bad enough. But somehow, we are willing to absolutely revoke the credentials of any expert who is not in on the fiction via this one crazy tool: reputational destruction.
Here is how it works.
Some collection of your government attached professional colleagues lose control of a cover story. That’s their problem. It shouldn’t be a “you problem”.
Francis Collins and Toni Fauci lost control of a virus cover story. Tough shit boys.
Prof Dale Jorgenson and Senators Moynihan and Packwood lost control of a CPI cost of living story.  Shouldn’t have cooked the books gentlemen.
The Military lost control of a FAKE UFO special access program. What were you thinking?
The Whitehouse installed a committee to replace a Parkinson’s president. And you want neuroscientists to lie on behalf of an unelected committee?
You wasted 40 years of physicist putting an end to the career of anyone who wouldn’t believe in Ed Witten as the quantum gravity fairy. And that makes the people who called it into crackpots?? Walk us through the logic.
You blew up the world financial system on a story called “The Great Moderation”. And this makes those of us who called it into charlatans? How exactly? Be specific.
We can’t afford to kill all our strongest minds, all the time on EVERY botched operation.
Let’s face facts. Our national interest folks suck at their jobs if they have to take down people smarter than them to do their work.
Period.
We can’t pollute every technical area for national interest. These people just aren’t very good or ethical. I’m sorry.
You can’t just pollute all technical fields. You are just bad at your jobs. And we aren’t going to cover for you out of modesty any more. You’ve just gotten too agreessixe.
You’re simply  preposterous.
We are better. You are worse. All you have over us is your cloak of covert authority. And that is it. That one thing.
Tough shit, gentlemen in the shadows.

|content=Essentially our national interest infrastructure appears to be wholesale dumping low level cognitive sludge into the public discourse absolutely everywhere. On TECHNICAL issues.
Who came up with this??
How do you expect to get away with it?

|content=It radically accelerated at the defeat of the USSR.
That is when public spirited technical Americans went from being our top U.S. asset to “Elite enemy no. 1” overnight.
The same minds who stopped the Soviets were in danger of stopping the Silents/Boomers from looting the U.S.
