Dezinfo nie je nova vec. Davnejsie (aj ked urcite nie prve) pouzitie je z 50-tych rokov 20. storocia v rezii tabakovych firiem, ktore potrebovali spochybnit (vtedy novy) poznatok, ze fajcenie sposobuje rakovinu.

p.s.: Aj by som to rad dal textom, ale text s URL/deep-linkou nie je, tak aspon takto, obrazkami z knihy "Ako spocitat svet" od #TimHarford.

One for #BBC's #MoreOrLess perhaps?

#TimHarford claims in #Skint that "Economic #growth doesn’t have to destroy the planet" and "In the UK we’ve had huge amounts of economic growth in my lifetime, & yet our emissions of carbon dioxide per person have more than halved"

but #KevinAnderson looks more deeply at these claims

Watched and enjoyed this new Tim Harford one-off documentary about the fundamental problems holding Britain back (spoiler: it's all Tories and people pretending not to be Tories).

Doesn't go into massive depth but is the sort of thing that could help a lot of people see through the prevailing neoliberal dogma. If only they watched it
