Remember that opinions you see on Twitter do not represent public opinion.

This paper shows people only post on Twitter when their minds are strongly made up, but many people are more neutral. This makes Twitter “a bad place to look for opinion change at the individual level.”

✅Carefully curate anecdotes.
✅Remove context.
✅Poison the well with uncharitable interpretations.
✅Present the exceptions as the rule.
✅Juxtapose them with your ideal.
This style of propaganda is extremely effective with people who lack critical thinking skills.

Knowledge isn't really science at all; science is a method for doing things.

But if I'm going to call any knowledge "science", I want it to be tested empirically instead of handed down.

Some of these examples of "progress" are dubious (eg. more powerful pickups) but in many ways we’re living better than our parents- and a lot of the credit goes to government programs, something liberals & progressives should emphasize more. https://t.co/uwM7hhg9Wg

@Noahpinion One of the most common patterns in woke culture. Whatever level of commitment was once considered acceptable eventually becomes insufficient.
