Epidemiology, Statistics: Truthiness For Our Time

Others are beginning to note what we’ve known for weeks: the Left is violating the tenets of its own religion with respect to the election results.

Mark Twain Quote: It's easier to fool someone than to convince them they've  been fooled - InfoBarrel Images

The Left worships but one god: “science.”  Of course it’s their science, defined by their truthiness, but never mind, you can believe it too - and you will be a better person for it!

In the 21st century the science of the Left has been circumscribed by the disciplines of statistics and epidemiology. With these 2 easily manipulated research tools of science the Elitists of the Left have grabbed hold of the reins of the world in order to steer us in the correct direction as they see fit.

With Big Education and Big Media key members of the elite these days we are forced to accept as “fact” their immutable statistical evidence which leads to the following conclusions:

What are the effects of fake news?

1. Anthropogenic Global Warming – which morphed seamlessly to “Climate Change” when their own data stopped supporting their warming hypothesis -  is the greatest danger to humanity since well, forever.

2. Minorities are systemically discriminated against everywhere but especially in the United States and especially when it comes to the criminal justice system.

3. Whatever stupid nutritional theory they are currently promoting. Plant based foods is a current favorite because…cow farts, or something.

4. COVID-19, the Chinese Murder Virus, is the greatest pandemic ever visited on mankind and can only be controlled by social isolation, face masks and economic shutdowns.

And you have no right to dispute their scientific, statistically demonstrated, epidemiological FACTS. Especially if you’ve done your own research and disagree with the Left’s sanctioned orthodoxy.

But now, all of a sudden, it seems that the Left has no use for statistics: their own most sacred tool of truthiness.

When it comes to producing evidence of election fraud, it seems that statistical analysis produces nothing but “meaningless” “baseless” and “groundless” accusations. Now it seems they don’t even consider statistics reliable enough to take a pause in the action to have a further look. Odd, isn’t it? 

As the American media continues to claim that no evidence for widespread voter fraud exists, many independent forensic data analysts who have analyzed data scrapes (sic) from Edison Research found quite the opposite.

Goodness, it’s as if they no longer trust their own most sacred tool. Perhaps they never did.Pin on For Fun - Wrong Vintage Advertising

Black Friday Lamentations

On this Black Friday what do you say we reflect, along with The Federalist, on that amazing ‘victory’ Joey B posted? A win the likes of which has never before been witnessed in the entire history of the Republic. Imagine losing a larger share of the black vote than ever before to your Republican opponent and STILL getting 8 million more votes than even the Lightbringer himself: now that’s historic!

That’s a remarkable feat for any old career curruptocrat; it’s especially impressive for a basement dwelling, hair sniffing, groping, demented old fool like Joe.

A Joe rally, empty circles galore

Let’s review just how awesome his circle-jerkin’ “victory” was:

1. 80 Million Votes

For Biden to lose these key bellwethers by notable margins and still win the national election is newsworthy. Not since the Mafia allegedly aided John F. Kennedy in winning Illinois over Richard Nixon in 1960 has an American president pulled off this neat trick.

2. Winning Despite Losing Most Bellwether Counties

“Biden underperformed Hillary Clinton in every major metro area around the country, save for Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta and Philadelphia…big cities in swing states run by Democrats.…the vote even exceeded the number of registered voters.” In the states that mattered most, so many mail-in ballots poured in for Biden from the cities that he put up record-breaking numbers and overturned state totals that looked like comfortable leads for President Trump.

3. Biden Trailed Clinton Except in a Select Few Cities

“Donald Trump was pretty much the only incumbent president in U.S. history to lose his re-election while his own party gained seats in the House of Representatives.” Now that’s a Biden miracle!

4. Biden Won Despite Democrat Losses Everywhere Else

Amazingly, Biden beat the guy who lifted all other Republicans to victory. Now that’s historic!

5. Biden Overcame Trump’s Commanding Primary Vote

First,no incumbent who has received 75 percent of the total primary vote has lost re-election. Second, President Trump received 94 percent of the primary vote, which is the fourth highest of all time. Third, Trump set a record for most primary votes received by an incumbent when more than 18 million people turned out for him in 2020. 

Those weirdly socially distanced chairs at Old Joe’s events always reminded me of something I couldn’t quite put my finger on.

Scenes from Joe Biden's 2020 campaign rallies

It finally came to me:

The Empty Chair

It was the perfect metaphor for the second coming of Obama and it’s equally perfect for all that a Joey B presidency would bring. But we are not giving up yet.

Thanksgiving 2020

I am blessed.

And I have so much to be thankful for it’s hard to know where to start. So I will start with you - the MOTI who gather here. We are like family whose members don’t always agree and some frequently squabble but are nevertheless connected by a deep common bond. Unlike real families our bond isn’t blood but rather shared values and principles; the very ones our country was founded on. We are bound together by our Constitution, the guide to building an America where freedom, opportunity, prosperity, and civil society flourish.

Here are a few of the specific things I’m grateful for:

I’m grateful I was born on the cusp of the 50s, when America was great and nobody was ashamed of that.

A Sears-Roebuck Dutch colonial – ‘colonial’ - you could never sell such a thing today!

I’m grateful to have been born to a world where individual freedom, self-reliance and personal responsibility were core values of everyone who aspired to be a good citizen - and that was nearly everyone.

The freedom of the open road was a siren’s call

I’m grateful that I was born when America was seen as a melting pot and that was a good thing, not bad. A time before ‘cultural appropriation’ was a thing and if used at all applied only to the Brits raiding of Egyptian tombs.

Taco Tuesday wasn’t a thing and tacos weren’t racist

I’m grateful for having received an education focused on reading, writing, math, citizenship and critical thinking rather than critical race theory and other social justice propaganda.

I’m grateful that I was raised in a time when people corrected true injustices like Jim Crow laws rather than inventing fake victims in order to exploit them for political gain.

I’m grateful for having been young when I didn’t have to feel guilty about everything I ate, drank, drove, bought or dreamed about for fear of killing the planet.

Just because it was cool

For these, and

I’m also grateful that 50 million Americans are traveling to celebrate Thanksgiving with their families this year, despite being advised not to by the CDC.

It’s Chinatown

Question for all you guys on the left who were so concerned about Russian interference in the 2016 election: any thoughts on China’s in 2020?

Biden's National Security Pick Said US Should "Encourage" China's Rise & Not Contain It

And what do you suppose they expect in return for their money/interference?

Pretty much everything.

Ah yes, the sheer inevitability of it all.

It’s Chinatown.

Grab a Compass and Pack a Lunch

Of course it’s not normal. Nothing has been normal since Trump won the 2016 election – because, you see, he wasn’t supposed to win. So the faction that lost has been working non-stop ever since to effectively abort the election, as that is what they do.

Or does that just apply to babies?

Instead of attributing the loss to their own epic failure to persuade at least half the country to embrace their  left-of-Marxist plans for America and adjusting accordingly they not only doubled down on the socialist rhetoric, they also formed a South American junta to overthrow the rightful President. The coup has been in play ever since the election results announced Trump the winner – it was ‘the insurance policy.’ Deep State ‘officials’ were deployed to sabotage Trump’s administration. The intelligence community along with military brass worked to sabotage his foreign policy, they all worked in concert with the elected Ruling Class to impeach the President despite knowing they had no grounds – aside from lies – to do so. It was intended to weaken and effectively ‘cancel’ the rightful President. Because they didn’t like him, or us, and we won.

A fraudulently won election was simply the logical next step in this sinister cabal’s toolkit to ensure they would regain and maintain power. The Elite Ruling Class, you see, has deemed us unfit to rule ourselves, as specified in the Constitution. I suggest that Exhibit 1 in The People’s Case of Seditious Behavior Against Deep State and its Collaborators should be documented evidence of their disdain for us.

But as the article points out, the question before us today is to probe a most likely fraudulent election before or after the installation of a President:

That question is the one that lurks over the proceedings as various factions duke it out over the proper way to move on this: not merely to investigate (or not), but to talk about what happened, what may have happened, and how to phrase what we want out of the action checklist.

The first approach – let a new president be inaugurated – sees any investigation as being of collateral procedural interest.  It wouldn’t be unimportant, per se.  But it shouldn’t interrupt an outcome that is being framed as the conventional outcome: the one like all other outcomes, in which there may be some moaning and groaning from the loser, but the collegial assumption rules, that we have a unified national purpose keeping a lid on the consequences of getting it wrong.

The second approach has a different premise.  That approach – don’t accept the electoral outcome as controlling until it has been fully authenticated – amounts to waging a fight.  It’s not a fight against the electoral outcome.  It’s a fight for the electoral outcome.  It’s a fight to make sure it’s valid and fair, before agreeing to be governed by it.

The second approach says the stakes are too high to simply blow off the possibility of being wrong.

The author explores the implications of either route.

There is a profound, unbridgeable disagreement between two factions here.  One faction is not willing to prioritize authenticating the vote above all else.  That faction is more willing to accept perceived social alignment and convention – not dispositive situational proof – as the basis for agreeing to the most important decisions about governance, such as who shall take office.

That set of motivations tacitly assumes that there is little meaningful consequence for accepting voting outcomes that may well have been shaped by fraud.

The other faction cannot agree to be governed by a voting outcome produced by fraud.  This faction is motivated by the certainty that to accept such a thing is to be governed by lies and corruption, and cannot turn out well by any calculation.  It’s worth fighting against a potentially fraudulent outcome, and not merely taking notes on it and hoping to do something about it later.

And he concludes, not surprisingly, that we have arrived at critical point in history.

This is a profound crisis for America.  In my view, it has reached the level of the question of slavery, which was too big an issue to be settled by conventional expectations for courts of law and social and political transactions.

In 1861, there were many Americans, as there are many today, who didn’t see the question as being that much beyond the scope of ordinary remedy. But it was… 

…the spiritual divide between Americans who don’t perceive a crisis (or whose intention is to provoke one and benefit from it), and Americans who do perceive one, could not be deeper. Either there must be a fight, to authenticate the 2020 vote and ensure that it produces a new president only if it was really honest and fraud-free, or there need not be a fight, but only a formulaic consultation which cannot possibly establish the meaningful absence of fraud.


If the choice is supposed to be the latter, voting is meaningless anyway, and no one is under moral compulsion to agree to be governed by its “outcomes.

Remember: it’s not normal to be cancelled for wrong-think in a free society.

It’s not normal to be ostracized by relatives and former friends because you hold different political views.

It’s not normal to be accused of being a conspiracy nut, a liar and/or a fantasist when you see evidence that points to systemic voter fraud. 

It’s not normal to be gaslighted by every mainstream media outlet.

None of this is normal. We’ve entered the post-normal political world. Welcome to unexplored territory.

Grab a compass and pack a lunch.

You Vill Report Your Neighbors Comrade, And You Vill Not Post This Meme!

Ah! Now I see what the BLM crowd meant by “re-imagining how law enforcement works in this country.”

And here we were all worrying – unnecessarily it turns out - that they meant replacing cops with social workers. Fear not comrades: they had something altogether different in mind. Something a little more…Schutzstaffel-ly; and we’re all being deputized.

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown wants residents to call the police on their neighbors over violations of the state’s latest coronavirus shutdown, which includes a six-person limit on in-home gatherings.

The temporary “freeze,” which went into effect Wednesday, restricts indoor at-home and social gatherings to six people from no more than two households, with no exceptions for Thanksgiving dinner get-togethers. – WT

And about that ‘defunding the police’ plan of theirs - they may need to rethink it altogether. Where they’re heading they need a bigger police force, not smaller.

Salt. Light. Kraken.

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Matthew 5:13-14

Is there any doubt in your mind but what it’s past time to salt the earth?

…turn on the light?

And release the Kraken!
