"Truthiness" Instead of Truth
Big Picture by Fusion IQMarch 24: Whether overstating job creation [or growth, or] understating inflation, a shocking amount of debate about the economic expansion has been primarily spin....[as] a parade of sycophants, despite knowing better, continued to cheer-lead punk data....First, they denied what was happening; then we got the whole "contained" thingie; then they blamed da Bears. Now they've unwittingly embraced Marx, and successfully pled for the central planners to rescue them from their own stupidity...Has "truthiness" replaced truth? [Will we] be saddled forever with these hallucinatory hacks?

Can we please refrain from dragging Marx into this? How many people here, seriously, have read him?
