Underneath The News, Beneath The Blackout Blanket

I thought to call today's mediation, "The Death Of The News Cycle," but couldn't. It may be ill. One day it may die. But it's power remains vast, and we're going to discuss that first.

There Was A War On Earth: Truth vs Lies

Who loves the Book of Revelation? I do. In my youth I opted to study two books of the Bible especially. Daniel and Revelation. After a long break in early adulthood, I found my way back with joy.

2) It's so tempting to follow the path of Revelation 12, where the story of the War in Heaven is told...revealed. Another tempting path pops up. In Genesis, which is now likely my favorite Book of the Bible, we learn of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

3) Consider this little playful numbered analysis:

1) Truth
2) Falsehood (i.e. lies and the lying liars who tell them)
3) Good
4) Evil

Something simple arises. Truth is good. Lies are evil.

How about that?

4) Moving perhaps too quickly, I bounce over to my beloved Master Sun Tzu. Well, him and me, we're a team. He assumes but I explain, it is a moral mandate to lie to your enemies. Allow me...

The Scopelliti Doctrine: It Is A Moral Mandate To Lie To Your Enemies.

5) Ethics is an ancient thing. Making a claim like the one I did above is no small thing, I assure you. I believe I am offering an innovation in the field of ethics. Lying to your friends is bad. Lying to your enemies is good. It's more than just good. It is required.

Did We Declare War Against China In November?

I was tagged on a video that's going round this morning. It's got our new, very strange friend Simon Parks, Charlie Ward, and a gal, don't know her last name, named Danielle.

Information, Disinformation, And Overwhelm

In these weeks since the election, I feel like I've begun to come to understand the world of intelligence officers and analysts a great deal more than ever before.

A Man Isolated, Does He Have The Power?

It's Thursday morning and we're not in a globalized war with China, far as I can tell. I was happy to give Simon, Charlie, and Danielle their time from Tuesday to Wednesday. Where to now?

My latest piece at @mmfa:

Fox News keeps trying to justify GOP efforts to object to the Electoral College vote by pointing to the number of people who think the election was stolen (after spending 2 months telling their audiences that it was

This is Fox, basically:

Another comparison to the role Fox is playing here via one of my favorite Onion articles:

Or maybe a human centipede, but with the front connected back to the end for a loop of shit-eating. Yeah, that's it. That's the role Fox is playing here.

But seriously, check out the *more than 2 months* of Fox-enabled conspiracy theories (a partial list):

1/42 Good to see yesterday’s @thetimes editorial attacking the pandemic of covid misinformation. Here’s my twitter contribution to fighting it, as suggested. Lockdown and covid sceptics continue to consistently misuse cherry picked data to argue NHS not unusually busy.

2/42 NHS trust leaders believe this disinformation is profoundly disrespectful to staff and risks reducing vital compliance with restrictions on social contact. Below is a long two part thread answering the main "NHS not unusually busy" and other NHS related disinformation.

3/42 Much of the disinformation comes from simplistic year on year percentage comparisons of data. Some types of NHS demand are flat or lower year on year. But it’s a huge distortion to argue that these individual statistics mean the NHS is not unusually busy.

4/42 For example, there ARE much lower levels of winter flu year - a global phenomenon. There ARE fewer elective operations - because of covid pressures. And there are many other examples. But there are five problems with cherry-picking/using these individual datasets.

5/42 1. They do not capture anything like the current total level of NHS demand which is very differently shaped due to COVID-19. Traditional, existing, NHS datasets were built to reflect “normal” levels of demand, “normal” operations and "normal" capacity. This isn’t normal.

Thread day after @MyMDC_T held its Ex congress @DrThoko_Khupe chaired an alleged National council, which arrived at the resolution of firing @DMwonzora recall him from parliament. The resolutions were supposed to be read by #Phugeni then party spokesperson but he refused ...

We share with you the resolutions which were withheld last minute at a Press conference addressed yesterday on advice from @ProfMadhuku - below are the full resolutions.

NATIONAL COUNCIL MEETING RESOLUTIONS
28 Dec 2020
 
Upholding and Respecting the Supreme Court Judgment (SC56/2020) which ordered the holding of an EO C in terms of the party constitution to elect a substantive replacement for the late Party President Dr Morgan Richard Tsvangirai.

Acknowledging that the same Supreme Court judgement recognises the existence of the constitution of the MDC without any qualifications.
Affirming that the Supreme Court judgement doesn’t entail deviating from the clear provisions of our constitution.

Realising that some members of the Party have left the party and joined or formed other political parties, and that by that fact alone, the said members have renounced their membership of the party.
Acknowledging the resolutions of the N Cof 9 May 2020, which meeting resolved to
