The only way we’re going to beat outrageous lies is if we’re willing to tell outrageous truths.

Posting Wordle is mega lame.

Beating outrageous lies starts w/ the common sense & intellectual status of the voting public. The status for at least the past 6 yrs. is pathetically low. How else would you explain election wins by Trump, Greene, Boebert, Gosar, Biggs, DeSantis, Hawley, Cruz, Jordan, Gohmert ?

Just say no to lies and the "top two" parties.

I'll start: curcuma is delicious in powder form, but disgusting in root form.

You have seen the underbelly of Party power politics. Why do these entities have the need to lie on what seems every subject. Why do the media do the same to their own detriment? To what end do they sacrifice truth?

Pithy and not at all self evident
Replying to @marwilliamson
If you believe in something that is evident, that's redundant. If you believe in something that is not evident, that's potentially harmful to you, me, and everybody. How's that for outrageous truth!? Truth is not marketable. People will pay desperately for convincing lies.

That didn’t work in democratic societies that were overtaken by fascists.

We can also stop giving liars a gigantic megaphone and implicit stamp of legitimacy.
