Remember how the COVID crisis is being manipulated.

It turns out, #Trump is the #DeathPanel the #Republicans were so worried about in the #HealthInsurance debate a few years back. He's weaponized #COVID19 by giving supplies to #swingstates he needs in the #2020Election & shorting Dem states. It's gerrymandering X ethnic cleansing

No, they're not. They plan to dole out the stockpile to “friendly governors” & #swingstates to curry favor. This shouldn't be political, but #Trump & his people have made it so:

When asked why @POTUS gave Florida 100% of ventilators requested while other states are in need, Trump says Florida & Michigan “have been taken care of” and they are “very important to me.” Both are 2020 #SwingStates

Removing the government's safeguards is actually much more corrosive than using public office for private gain. It corrodes our democracy in ways that will last beyond the @realDonaldTrump presidency.

It’s never as simple as “fact is to fiction as Truth is to Falsehood” because history is not exactly like non-fiction. Novelty can be falsified, but is not identical to the falsifiable.

the spread of false information is essentially not due to bots that are programmed to disseminate inaccurate stories. Instead, false news speeds faster around Twitter due to people retweeting inaccurate news items.

On airing the Trump briefings, see MIT 2018 study.

People share statements MORE when theyÃ¢Â€Â™re (1) false & (2) disgusting.

If you hate-watch Trump you experience hyperarousal & exposure to lies.

You then pass on that hyperarousal & spread the lies. https://t.co/9mfP6pGwXe

Dawkins coined “memes” to describe a unit of culture analogous to genes. But microbes & vitality may be closer to the mark.

During a pandemic ffs we have to be meticulous abt not spreading disinfo—a pathogen that spikes cortisol, suppresses reason & disinhibits behavior.

Emphasizing again the radical MIT conclusion: Our brains *prefer*—short term—lies over truth, fiction over fact. Fiction is built with protagonists, antagonists, plot, heightened language. That's why Netflix is intensely calming these days. Facts are thorny. Fiction is organized.
