I think the professional plus maybe volunteer obfuscators on FR have now changed their tactics.
I think they have new scripts. Trying to put doubt on things that are pretty much known to be true, and as FARS says, making statements that may be 90% true but with 10% lies tossed in to muddy everything.
That and the usual “this is a fiendishly clever trap, everyone shut up about it, move on, nothing to see”.
They’ve switched the tune.
And they’re scared.
