Donald Trump made it a dangerous time to tell the truth in America.
So, now that Joe Biden is in the White House, we need to make sure that only the truth gets told:
NYT Media ~ Here's what the Biden administration could do to fix our truth-challenged information ecosystem, writes our columnist @kevinroose.
How the Biden Administration Can Help Solve Our Reality Crisis
http://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/02/technology/biden-reality-crisis-misinformation.html?smtyp=cur&smid=tw-nytmedia
A "reality crisis," eh? Great ... now the looney tunes who live in a delusional fantasy world want to define "reality" and prosecute any deviations from their notion of it. What could possibly go wrong, eh?
This sounds promising! What steps do the experts recommend the Biden administration take to put an end to our reality crisis, New York Times tech columnist Kevin Roose?
* Assess the damage, and avoid the ‘terrorist’ trap.
* Appoint a ‘reality czar.’
* Audit the algorithms.
* Enact a ‘social stimulus,’ and fix people’s problems.
Gee, why didn’t we think of that?
Probably because we’re not insane.
Seth Fiegerman ~ NYTimes suggests the Biden administration needs to appoint a “reality czar” to deal with misinformation and extremism.
Oooh, oooh ... I know ... Gropey Joe can appoint Chairman Xi Jinping as his "Reality Czar"!
Does Kevin really not see a problem with this sort of thing?
Join Or Die ~ Absolute insanity.
Suburban Sheepdog ~ No need to reinvent the wheel. Certainly the CCP can help with some best practices.
Razor ~ To avoid a fascist regime, they turned DC into a military zone, dissent is stifled as treason, laws are quickly made by executive order, and journalists submit to a Ministry of Truth.
Kevin Roose’s take on the “reality czar” idea:
"It sounds a little dystopian, I’ll grant. But let’s hear them out."
Or, Kevin, how about let’s not?
