|content=[[The Cognitive Decline of President Joe Biden|Biden is sharp as a tack (anti-neuroscience).]] | |||
COVID came from a wet market pangolin (anti biology). | |||
[[CPI|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). | |||
[[Labor Shortages|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. Thatâs their problem. It shouldnât be a âyou problemâ. | |||
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. Shouldnât 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 Parkinsonâs 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 wouldnât believe in Ed Witten as the [[Quantum Gravity|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 [[Great Moderation|âThe Great Moderationâ]]. And this makes those of us who called it into charlatans? How exactly? Be specific. | |||
We canât afford to kill all our strongest minds, all the time on EVERY botched operation. | |||
Letâs 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 canât pollute every technical area for national interest. These people just arenât very good or ethical. Iâm sorry. | |||
You canât just pollute all technical fields. You are just bad at your jobs. And we arenât going to cover for you out of modesty any more. Youâve just gotten too agreessixe. | |||
Youâre 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=We need a new concept, and I donât know what to call it. [[Cognitive Poisioning by Mid Level National Security/National Interest]]. Or something. Anybody? | |||

|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? | |||
