Exactly. The characterization of data they want to discredit as being “cherry picked” or “lacking context” is not a random thing.
NORMAL people who play by the rules both societal and intellectual, would say to themselves “Huh. Did I miss something? Did I cherry pick, or not view it in context?” and they would, if not that interested, drop it and assume they missed something.
Leftists win. A large percentage do indeed drop it, and the crisis fades further one day into the past. They win.
Then, those of us who ARE interested, may go back and look. We waste our time looking at something we knew to be true (a laptop, left unclaimed with a repair person, with incriminating material) but trying to ensure there wasn’t something we missed that made it “out of context” or “cherry picked”.
And the crisis fades further one more day into the past. They win.
Then they get Big Tech on their side to shape the information people are delivered in their web or information searches.
Labeled as “Lacks context” which makes it harder to find valid information, adding multiple mouse clicks, leading to additional authentication mechanisms such as one of their favorites “captcha” to drive people away from data they don’t want them to see.
Or, they simply drop the valid result it to the fifth page (or further) which research has shown that 99.95% of people never go to. (I just made that percentage up, but I believe that is a representative number)
And the crisis fades further one more day into the past. They win.
It becomes “old news”. And another of their favorite terms: “Debunked”.
This is part of their playbook. It isn’t random. It isn’t contrived. It is a tactic.
And we are at a disadvantage. Because we believe in seeing all the information, good or bad, and allowing people to make decisions.
They believe in only allowing you to see information that is advantageous to them
yup, repackaged WrapUp Smear...
