Anatomy Of A Hoax

[CrusaderFrank]

Doesn't it seem supremely fishy that the third most powerful person in the US doesn't have better security? Christ, conspiracy theories are made from that kind of scenario.

so many things don’t add up about this story

Haha and still they persist.

Country full of idiots!

How many Secret Service would you like there to be? And for who?

There are security cameras at Pelosi's house which feed all the way to DC.

Unfortunately, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of such feeds going to the Capitol, and it apparently overwhelms them.

Who expects something to happen at the Pelosi house when she's not there? You have to prioritize what you need to observe.

The Capitol Police did not notice until they saw the local police's flashing lights on the camera.

That she didn't hire her own security i beyond belief.

She wasn't home.

She wasn't home.

Don't care. Like this guy proved, he didn't either.

You folks can't "teach" anything to anyone, unless it's how to lose an election.

You guys cannot learn.

Introduction

The man who attacked Paul Pelosi, the husband of Nancy Pelosi, was just sentenced to life in prison. One of the most bizarre hoaxes we’ve ever seen was built around this attack on Mr. Pelosi, and it is my intention to show just how bizarre and stupid that canard was. Many here still subscribe to it, and will skip this topic because it is hard to accept oneself was so easily rooked.

And that’s fine. They will never admit their credulity. But they know in their hearts they were duped.

The intention of this topic is to delineate how critical thinking works, which can lend a framework to deconstruct any future hoaxes.

Critical thinking skills have been nearly made extinct in this time where every mendacious jackass has access to the entire world from his couch.



There is an aphorism which goes, “A lie is halfway around the world before the truth gets its pants on.”

This is a variation on a theme written three centuries ago when the fastest communication was by sailing ship. In today’s modern world, a lie travels all the way around the world thousands of times before the truth can get its pants on.

Even more disadvantageous is that a lie can be created in a few seconds, while the debunking of that lie takes a great deal of time. Then another lie is quickly layered on top. And then another. And another.



Therefore, my posts are going to be necessarily long and in several parts. I apologize ahead of time, but they should be enlightening.

I don't want to "learn" to be like you, because there's really nothing you can teach me.

Been there, done that already. I was once an ultra-liberal Democrat myself at one time, but I outgrew that childish phase. So did my wife, who voted for Obama in '08.
