@AnthonySabatini I commented to someone tonight that it would get worse before it got better.
I corrected myself though and added:
“It’s probably not going to get better, is it?”
@FilmLadd First time I encountered it was when I watched a 60 Minutes segment with my aircraft mechanic BIL on some type of aircraft issue.
When it was over he said it was all nonsense.
But my family continued to watch 60 Minutes as if it was truth from Mount Sinai.
Can't stand it when something in the news pops the Gell-Mann amnesia bubble for me.
“Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the ‘wet streets cause rain’ stories. Paper’s full of them.
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
That is the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect.”
@Tylow237 Illinois democrats care so much about the taxpayers that they shell out billions of dollars in aid to people in our state who AREN’T EVEN CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES!
There’s a thing called “object permanence”, a persons ability to understand that if something moves out of their sight that thing still exists… they just can’t see it. Most normal people develop this when they’re a toddler, it’s why ”Peek-a-Boo” stops working, but I think libs may never actually develop it
It really is remarkable that the three largest cities in the most powerful country on earth are led by some of the most incompetent people we’ve ever seen
One of the most shocking things I witnessed today was this woman in pink screaming “you gon end up like Metcalf, you gone be pushing up daisies”.
I caught the tail end of her saying this to Metcalf supporters in the clip below.
I also witnessed several Karmelo supporters get extremely aggressive when ANY media tried speaking with them.
One female reporter went up to the group to ask questions (linked below) and they immediately got angry saying “we told y’all to stop coming the f*ck over here” (this was her first attempt at speaking to them).
At this point I started warning every reporter who was trying to speak with this group, as earlier, another local reporter had tapped on the shoulder of the man who leads their chants. This man immediately squared up and acted like the reporter had punched him.
I’ve been covering protests for 7 years and this is some of the most violent and racially charged rhetoric I’ve ever encountered.
🚨 NOW: An Assistant US Attorney is now INSIDE the Los Angeles ballot processing center, as @USAttyEssayli announces MULTIPLE federal investigations into voter fraud in California
Expose it ALL and prosecute!
I asked a Karmelo Anthony supporter if the black community would accept the evidence if it shows that Karmelo was NOT acting in self-defense
She said that no matter what, “we gone stands with ours regardless” and questioned Metcalf’s role in the stabbing:
**0 votes for Pratt** in that specific batch of 24,834.
Prior to the batch, Pratt held ~28-30% support in counted votes. Under a binomial model with p≈0.28-0.30:
- Expected Pratt votes: ~6,950–7,450
- Standard deviation: ~70–72
- Observed: 0 → **~98 sigma** below the mean
Probability of exactly 0: (1-p)^n ≈ 10^(-3,200) to 10^(-3,800) — astronomically smaller than lottery odds or atoms in the universe.
This matches the pattern noted in CA elections where late mail-in batches skew heavily Democratic. Official sources confirm the zero count in the tranche; explanations range from sampling of specific mail-in pools to processing artifacts. Statistically, it's an extreme outlier under random distribution assumptions.
