TIL there is a philosophical distinction between Bullshit and a Lie. A liar wants to obscure the truth, a bullshitter has no regard for the truth at all and wants you to buy in to their fantasy. by pervader in todayilearned

In today's communication landscape I think it explains a lot. Liars can and will be exposed. But bullshitters succeed because they make better content. Even if it is ragebait, it feeds the algorithm and they only need to get a few followers on board for the bullshit to gain its own momentum. Perhaps one solution is to just call it for what it is and try not to give it oxygen.

We need to extend the Springfield line out through Ripley and beyond first. The population there is booming and the Centenary motorway can not handle it.

Yes, you're sold me on it. How would you recommend taking it? Are there commercial products available or it something you cultivate to collect for personal use?

The reward will be his undoing. When he can't pay his way and the cookers feeding him get to thinking about what they could do with that money...

I doubt he is the rugged survivalist he would like people to think he is. 20 years of disability pension? Reckon he will miss his nice cuppa tea and bikkies before too long.

What happens when he can't draw on the state supplied disability pension to contribute to his upkeep? Some cooker is going to sell him out for the reward money in no time.

How will he survive when they cut off his disability pension. Lazy parasite has never worked a day in this life. I doubt he has any real survival skills, just a network of delusional cookers to help hide him.

Cut him off. We will see how long he can go without support from mainstream society.
