The truth

Reality - what a concept!
-
truth is merely opinion supported by more bias than not.
You remind me of someone!
Feminist PhD Candidate: Science Is Sexist Because It's Not Subjective
Women and minorities cannot understand logic or objective truths, so science classes should stop using the scientific method because it's sexist.

@kt_ luv u too bud

@boomzilla that particular angle is retarded; science should have no subjectivity.
But where I'm coming from is that there is a spectrum between opinion and fact, where an opinion requires no proof and can be completely inane, trite and made up. On the other end there is fact which is incontrovertibly true. And that everything else is somewhere on that spectrum - both belief and truth have a place on that spectrum, whose position is defined by the amount of evidence you have to support it.
There are outliers, of course, where you have BELIEF supported by nothing concrete (e.g. bearded skymen that rule the world in a fairly vainglorious way) and you have TRUTH as manipulated by IngSoc etc.

Whoever it is, I think Goofus will get to them first. Probably do more damage, too.

I thought I needed to see the nose scratching episode of "it's all a conspiracy" to catch up properly. :(

Well, yeah, it is all a conspiracy. The problem is, the conspiracy is between the ears of each and every one of us.
"The greatest strength of The Conspiracy is that it doesn't exist.
The greatest weakness of The Conspiracy is that it does."
-- me, after reading Illuminatus! for the first time and repeated several times over the past 25 years. I still insist it makes sense, at least to me.
