This is sickening. The public broadcaster (ARD) in #Germany is downplaying the AfD neo-Nazi position by refering to their #antimigration #policies and #sentiments as #scepticism. No, they are opposed to #migration. They are openly debating #deportstionnof all with a #migrant background. Even people who have been here for generations. Scepticism is doubt and uncertainty. They are very certain that migration is bad, contrary to #reality and actual #data. Typical #conservative like, #fear and #lies

I keep discovering that deflationary philosophy attracts mystics like moths to a freshly cleared void, so I wrote about it.

It's odd, because the entire point is to remove the furniture, not consecrate the space.

#MarcusTulliusCicero was born on #ThisDayInHistory in 106 BCE. Cicero's eclectic mix of #Neoplatonism, #Scepticism, & #Stoicism is interesting to philosophers, and his innovative mastery of #Latin helped to launch the #Renaissance once his work was reintroduced by #Petrarch.

Calling Bullshit by Jevin D. West & Carl T. Bergstrom, 2020

The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World

An indispensable handbook to the art of scepticism from two brilliantly contrarian scientists.

We think we know bullshit when we hear it, but do we?

Politicians are unconstrained by facts. Science is conducted by press release. Start-up culture elevates hype to high art. The world is awash in bullshit, and we're drowning in it.

Rome mayor’s claim of swimmable #Tiber in five years met with #scepticism

Experts unconvinced by Roberto Gualtieri’s mooted timescale for river to be reopened for public bathing

...Perhaps not in 5 years, but it is (perhaps) doable in 50 (if everything goes well)... 🤔
