The Brandolini's Law says "The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is bigger than that needed to produce it"

Absolutely true

With AI it's easy now. I've spent only about half an hour to debunk scientific bullshit today.

With two braincells to knock together its easy.

Herws a trucks original quote for you -

"If a story doesnt make sense, its bullshit"

16 years of armed security and it was never proven wrong.

And of course they had to include this:
The persistent false claim that vaccines cause autism is a prime example of Brandolini's law.
Cause they couldn't include nazis, i guess.

Anti-vaxxers are literal nazis.

Wikipedia is that very bullshit referred to in Brandolini's spaghetti.

We know, you're here producing bullshit.

Your cognitive dissonance is showing.

Here take this shovel and dig.

I concur.

I agree with the substance of Brandolinis law, it is most true.
It takes far more work to uncover the bullshit than to produce it.
Its not fair at all and its a losing battle.

In my mind, the problem is that I'm the only one shoveling, I suspect this commenter feels much the same.
Its that fervor, that imho, is needed.

Rage against the dying of the light.

Produce.

Not uncover.

If youre paying attention all liars still tell the truth without realising it.

You just have to listen and remember what stories theyve been telling everyone.

That's your purpose isn't it, to tie up discussion with constantly spamming bullshit?
