FAKE is EVERYWHERE


All the world is becoming fake.  The USA leads this parade.
  • Fake news
  • Fake bombs
  • Fake outrage
  • Fake reports
  • Fake politicians
  • Fake investigations
  • Fake accusations
  • Fake terrorism
  • Fake security
  • Fake votes
  • Fake voters
  • Fake citizens
    ----------------
  • Fake love
  • Fake religion
  • Fake science*
  • Fake lies**
* History is loaded with false scientific reports.  From Piltdown man, to countless cures for obscure diseases, to causes for earthquakes.
**This one needs an explanation.  You have an unfavorable event, such as the murder of a reporter.  What you do is admit the event but lie about its origins or outcomes. 
All these are co-mingled with the real thing.

I used to believe someone, somehow, someway would bring back sanity.  Someone would find the words.  Now I believe the contagion of "hate" and "fake" must burn itself out.  It may take a generation or more.
One reason that "FAKE" is there in such quantity is so many, too many, even smart people, simply "need the feed" on a daily if not hourly basis.  Like some drug, they need a fix all day long and into the evening.

For these plasma partisans, it doesn't matter if you have done anything, will do anything, or even plan to do something, you are accepted with waves of support because what of you think and who you hate. You are admitted, covered by this cloak of acceptability.

Accepting Fake Information

Every day, we are all bombarded with information, especially on news channels.  One group claims it's false; another calls it the truth. How can we know when to accept it or alternatively how can we know it's false? There are several factors which influence acceptance of fake or false information. Here are the big four.  Some just don’t have the knowledge to discern fact/truth from fiction/fact/false*. Some fake information is cleverly disguised and simply appears to be correct. Some fake information is accepted because the person wants to believe it. Some fake information is accepted because there is no other information to the contrary. However, the acceptance of  information  of any kind become a kind of  truth , and this is a well studied topic. In the link below is an essay on “The Truth About Truth.” This shows simply that what is your point of view, different types of information are generally accepted, fake or not.   https://www.linkedin.com/posts/g-donald-allen-420b03

Your Brain Within Your Brain

  Your Bicameral Brain by Don Allen Have you ever gone to another room to get something, but when you got there you forgot what you were after? Have you ever experienced a flash of insight, but when you went to look it up online, you couldn’t even remember the keyword? You think you forgot it completely. How can it happen so fast? You worry your memory is failing. Are you merely absent-minded? You try to be amused. But maybe you didn’t forget.   Just maybe that flash of insight, clear and present for an instant, was never given in the verbal form, but another type of intelligence you possess, that you use, and that communicates only to you. We are trained to live in a verbal world, where words matter most. Aside from emotions, we are unable to conjure up other, nonverbal, forms of intelligence we primitively, pre-verbally, possess but don’t know how to use. Alas, we live in a world of words, stewing in the alphabet, sleeping under pages of paragraphs, almost ignoring one of

Is Artificial Intelligence Conscious?

  Is Artificial Intelligence Conscious? I truly like the study of consciousness, though it is safe to say no one really knows what it is. Some philosophers has avoided the problem by claiming consciousness simply doesn’t exist. It's the ultimate escape clause. However, the "therefore, it does not exist" argument also applies to "truth", "God", and even "reality" all quite beyond a consensus description for at least three millennia. For each issue or problem defying description or understanding, simply escape the problem by claiming it doesn’t exist. Problem solved or problem avoided? Alternately, as Daniel Dennett explains consciousness as an account of the various calculations occurring in the brain at close to the same time. However, he goes on to say that consciousness is so insignificant, especially compared to our exalted notions of it, that it might as well not exist [1] . Oh, well. Getting back to consciousness, most of us have view
