“Cough CPR” is misinformation

What is “cough CPR”?

“Cough CPR” is a myth which claims that rhythmic coughing can reduce the impact of a heart attack. It has been circulating for over two decades via email and on social media platforms (Wikipedia, 2023).

Why doesn’t it work?

A heart attack happens when the blood flow to the heart is restricted due to blockage. Cardiac arrest is when your heart stops pumping completely (British Heart Foundation, n.d.).

These definitions alone should demonstrate the problem with “cough CPR”. If you have a heart attack, your heart is still pumping, so you do not need CPR. If you experience cardiac arrest, you will fall unconscious within seconds (Resuscitation Council UK, 2021) and therefore won’t be able to perform “cough CPR”.

In many cases, “cough CPR” could even worsen the problem or prove fatal if coughing is undertaken to the wrong rhythm (Snopes, 2003).

Is “cough CPR” ever useful?

Coughing creates pressure that forces blood to flow to the brain (Cleveland Clinic, 2020).

It may therefore be possible for someone experiencing sudden arrhythmia to maintain consciousness for a few seconds by coughing. However, the patient would already need to be under constant monitoring for the arrhythmia to be detected. It should also only be done at the instruction of a doctor, as a medical professional will still be needed to treat the abnormal heart rhythm (American Heart Association, 2023).

Cases where “cough CPR” has been useful have all been isolated incidents performed in this kind of clinical setting (see Snopes, 2003; UChicago Medicine, 2019; American Heart Association, 2023).

As the most consequential presidential election in a generation looms in the United States, get-out-the-vote efforts across the country are more important than ever. But multiple far-right activist groups with ties to former president Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee are mobilizing their supporters in earnest, drawing on one baseline belief: Elections in the US are rigged, and citizens need to do something about it.

All the evidence states otherwise. But in recent weeks, these groups have held training sessions about how to organize on a hyperlocal level to monitor polling places and drop boxes, challenge voter registrations en masse, and intimidate and harass voters and election officials. And some are preparing to roll out new technology to fast-track all of these efforts: One of the groups claims they’re launching a new platform for checking voter rolls that contains billions of “data elements” on every single US citizen.

These groups could have a major impact on the 2024 election. In addition to disenfranchising voters and putting additional pressure on already overstretched election offices, they could convince more and more people that US elections are fraudulent.

Catherine Engelbrecht and her organization True the Vote have effectively tried to disenfranchise voters for more than a decade by claiming that voter rolls are filled with phony voter registrations. Engelbrecht’s rhetoric was given an unprecedented boost in the wake of 2020, when Trump and other elected officials mainstreamed conspiracies that the elections had been rigged in favor of Democrats. Hundreds of national and local election denial groups were formed, and many of them amassed huge followings on social media platforms like Telegram. As the 2024 presidential election looms, they are ramping up efforts to do it again.

“It could be exponentially worse than what we saw in 2020, but we're going to be awake, we're going to be engaged, we are going to understand the process, and we're going to have options to continue to hold to those truths,” Engelbrecht said during a March webinar titled “Election Integrity Team Building 101.” “We're not going to back down. There's too much to lose.”

The hour-long presentation was delivered from a hotel room in Denver, with Engelbrecht laying out what could sound like a relatively benign plan to monitor elections and check voter rolls. “Keep a soft heart, keep a kind word in your mouth, approach people irrespective of party with love. You will find that things will be much better if that is the approach that is taken,” Engelbrecht said. The session, she said, was overbooked.

Engelbrecht then began speaking about elections being “perilously close to cracking in half,” and her presentation became a highlight reel of election conspiracies, references to crystals, Christian nationalist rhetoric, and militaristic jargon. “If this republic’s to be saved, it's because [of] people like all of you that are on this webinar right now. There are some bad actors out there and we live in particularly chaotic and caustic times,” said Engelbrecht. “If we wait on somebody to do something, we will watch freedom slip away on our watch. That's how close we are.”

“These groups are trying to lay the groundwork to potentially make later claims about the election that very well may be false. But the more chaos that can be caused along the way will give more fodder to that disinformation,” Andrew Garber, an expert at the Brennan Center for Justice’s Voting Rights and Elections Program, tells WIRED. “It's not just bad if there's a mass voter challenge because people might get kicked off the rolls. It's also bad if people then take that challenge and say, ‘See, look at all these ineligible voters,’ when in fact that's not the case.”

Engelbrecht founded True the Vote in 2010, when she was an activist for the right-wing populist Tea Party movement. After the 2020 election, Engelbrecht and her collaborator Gregg Phillips became central figures in the Stop the Steal movement, and starred in the widely-debunked election conspiracy film 2000 Mules. They were also arrested for contempt of court after refusing to identify their source behind allegations that the Chinese government had accessed US election data. True the Vote also made wild allegations of widespread ballot stuffing in Georgia during the 2020 vote and a subsequent runoff in 2021. Earlier this year, True the Vote was forced to admit in court that the group had no evidence to back up its claims.

In 2022, the group rolled out a slick new software tool known as IV3, based on technology developed by Phillips, that compared names on voter rolls to a database maintained by the US Postal Service, allowing anyone to challenge voter registrations across the country if they spotted a discrepancy. A WIRED investigation, however, revealed that the information used to challenge the registration of hundreds of thousands of people was based on unreliable data.

Undeterred, True the Vote announced last week that it was relaunching IV3. Phillips claims that the software’s database now has close to “100 billion data elements about every single voter in the United States.” WIRED has not seen proof of this claim. The new IV3 system will soon be available in all 50 states, the organization said. On Thursday, the group held a webinar to train local activists on how to use it. The new system also relies on data from the US Postal Service, but Engelbrecht claimed during the presentation that Phillips and his team had “normalized” the data from all 50 states to ensure the system would not produce inaccurate results. She also said that thousands of people across the country were already registered, and that they had a long waiting list.

Additionally, she said that another software tool developed by Phillips’ team, called Ground Fusion, would be released soon; it is aimed at organizations and PACs looking to identify voting irregularities across larger geographic regions.

Engelbrecht declined to comment, claiming without evidence that WIRED had “written unfairly about True the Vote and IV3 in the past.”

True the Vote is not the only group seeking to leverage technology to supercharge the spread of election conspiracies. A secretive Georgia-based firm called EagleAI NETwork has developed a voter information database to fast-track the deletion of ineligible voters from the system. Voter rights groups have advised against its use, as insignificant errors—such as a missing comma before the suffix “Jr.”—have led to eligible names being removed. Still, at least one county in Georgia has agreed to use EagleAI to review voter challenges and conduct list maintenance activities.

One of EagleAI’s key backers is former Trump adviser Cleta Mitchell, who in the past two years has become central to the push to spread election conspiracies on a national level through her well-funded Election Integrity Network.

The group has held in-person training seminars in recent years, with session topics including how to protect “Vulnerable Voters from Leftist Activists” and “Monitoring Voting Equipment and Systems.” More recently, the group has made its training sessions available online, and is now once again ramping up its efforts ahead of the 2024 election with an initiative called Soles to the Rolls, aimed at boosting challenges to voter registration.

Mitchell, EagleAI, and the Election Integrity Network did not respond to WIRED’s request for comment.

Another training webinar called “We the People” was also hosted last month by the America Project and its offshoot, Vote Your Vision. Broadcasted online to hundreds of attendees, the webinar featured a lineup of election conspiracists, Republican lawmakers, a guy who wrote a book about fifth-generation warfare, and former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.

The webinar, the group’s website said, was designed to give people “the secrets to reclaiming our power and reshaping history” by using “state-of-the-art election tools,” including those involving artificial intelligence technology. While the details of exactly what these tools will look like and how they will be used are unclear, the America Project has already scheduled more training sessions in the coming weeks to give supporters more information. The group also did not reply to requests for comment.

The America Project was cofounded by disgraced former national security adviser Michael Flynn and former Overstock.com CEO and conspiracist Patrick Byrne, who also funds part of the organization. Both Flynn and Byrne reportedly attended a White House meeting in late 2020 to urge Trump to essentially declare martial law and seize voting machines.

While Flynn didn’t speak during last month’s webinar, he has arguably done more than anyone since 2020 to push the notion that America’s elections are fundamentally fraudulent, appearing at conferences, in podcasts, and on right-wing news shows on a near-daily basis. Trump has also indicated that Flynn will be brought back into his administration should he win.

These efforts have been given the seal of approval by the Republican National Committee, which was recently restructured by Trump to include election deniers and family members in top positions while cutting minority outreach efforts. One of those election deniers is Christina Bobb, who will be running the “election integrity unit.” A former Trump lawyer and TV presenter on far-right channel One America News, Bobb is a major promoter of the myth that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. The RNC’s election-related priorities, according to an internal memo recently obtained by NPR, include “a broader effort over the coming months to [legally] challenge voter identification and signature verification rules which were put into place for the 2020 election.”

During the America Project webinar last month, one of the hosts apologized to listeners for being unable to get Bobb to join the call that day, but promised that she would join a future session—highlighting just how closely these conspiracy-focused groups work with the mainstream GOP apparatus.

“These groups have a playbook nationally that they tend to deploy locally,” says Garber. “Some of these playbooks that have an intended national reach are then deployed through local activists, and it's concerning because it's the voters at the local level who suffer the effects. It's the election officials at the local level trying to keep order at the polls, trying to make sure their voter rolls are up to date, who have to deal with this stuff.”

One of Flynn’s core messages over the past four years has been that “local action equals national impact” —an expression that revolves around a concept called “precinct strategy,” which aims to get people into key positions on local committees in order to push their narratives at the local level. In 2024, that strategy has been primed and polished.

“This concept of precinct strategy was actually endorsed by President Trump in the last election cycle,” Yehuda Miller, a Republican county committee member in New Jersey, said during the America Project seminar. “We want to take the strategy to the next level. We want to get more organized, we want to start organizing across multiple counties in a state, we want to start organizing across multiple states. We have the power to direct our elected officials.”

The Art and Craft of Biography Writing

Biography writing is a fascinating and intricate craft that requires a deep understanding of storytelling, research, and the human condition. Whether you're chronicling the life of a historical figure, a celebrity, or an unsung hero, writing a biography involves more than just assembling facts; it's about weaving a narrative that brings the subject to life for the reader. In this blog, we'll explore the essential elements of biography writing, the steps involved in crafting a compelling life story, and tips for aspiring biographers.

Understanding the Essence of Biography Writing

At its core, a biography is a detailed account of a person's life. It goes beyond a mere chronology of events to explore the nuances of their experiences, motivations, and the impact they had on the world. A well-written biography offers insights into the subject's character, their struggles and triumphs, and the historical and cultural context in which they lived.

Research: The Foundation of a Good Biography

Thorough research is the backbone of any biography. It involves gathering information from a variety of sources, including books, articles, interviews, letters, diaries, and archival materials. Here are some key steps in the research process:

Identify Reliable Sources: Look for primary sources like personal letters, diaries, and firsthand accounts, as well as secondary sources such as books and articles written by experts on the subject.

Verify Facts: Cross-check information from multiple sources to ensure accuracy. Be wary of discrepancies and strive to present a balanced view.

Contextualize: Understand the historical, cultural, and social context in which your subject lived. This will help you to portray their life more accurately and vividly.

Interview: If possible, interview people who knew the subject personally. Their anecdotes and insights can add depth and authenticity to your narrative.

Crafting a Compelling Narrative

Once you have gathered your research, the next step is to craft a narrative that engages and captivates your readers. Here are some tips for writing a compelling biography:

Find the Story Arc: Like any good story, a biography should have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Identify the key events and turning points in your subject's life and structure your narrative around them.

Develop the Character: A biography is not just about what a person did, but who they were. Explore their personality, motivations, and relationships. What were their strengths and weaknesses? What drove them to achieve what they did?

Show, Don’t Tell: Use vivid descriptions and anecdotes to bring your subject to life. Instead of merely stating facts, show how events unfolded and how they affected the subject.

Maintain Objectivity: While it's important to portray your subject in a compelling light, strive to maintain objectivity. A good biographer presents a balanced view, acknowledging both the subject's achievements and flaws.

The Structure of a Biography

A biography typically follows a chronological structure, but there are various ways to organize your material. Here are some common approaches:

Chronological: This is the most straightforward approach, presenting the subject’s life in the order in which events occurred.

Thematic: Focus on specific themes or aspects of the subject’s life, such as their career, personal relationships, or impact on society.

Flashbacks: Start with a significant event or turning point in the subject’s life and then use flashbacks to explore their earlier years.

Multiple Perspectives: Incorporate the viewpoints of different people who knew the subject to provide a more rounded and nuanced portrait.

Writing Tips for Aspiring Biographers

Start with a Hook: Begin your biography with an intriguing anecdote, quote, or event that grabs the reader's attention and sets the tone for the rest of the narrative.

Use Dialogue: Incorporate dialogue whenever possible to make your narrative more engaging. Be sure to verify the accuracy of quoted conversations.

Balance Detail and Pacing: While it's important to include detailed information, avoid overwhelming the reader with too much minutiae. Balance detail with pacing to keep the narrative flowing.

Revise and Edit: Writing a biography is a long and iterative process. Be prepared to revise and edit your work multiple times to refine the narrative and ensure accuracy.

Stay True to the Subject: Above all, stay true to the essence of your subject. Your goal is to present an authentic and respectful portrayal of their life.

The Ethical Considerations of Biography Writing

Writing a biography comes with ethical responsibilities. Biographers must be mindful of the impact their work can have on the subject, their family, and their legacy. Here are some ethical considerations to keep in mind:

Respect Privacy: Be sensitive to the privacy of living subjects and their families. Avoid sensationalism and respect their wishes regarding what information can be disclosed.

Avoid Bias: Strive for objectivity and avoid letting personal biases influence your portrayal of the subject.

Fact-Check: Ensure that all information is accurate and well-sourced. Misrepresentations can harm the subject’s reputation and credibility.

Acknowledge Sources: Give credit to the sources of your information, whether they are books, articles, interviews, or archival materials.

Biography writing is a rewarding endeavor that allows writers to delve into the lives of fascinating individuals and share their stories with the world. It requires a blend of thorough research, narrative skill, and ethical sensitivity. Whether you’re writing about a historical figure, a contemporary icon, or a personal hero, the principles of good biography writing remain the same: find the story, tell it well, and stay true to the subject.

By mastering the art and craft of biography writing, you can create a work that not only informs and entertains but also honors the legacy of the person whose life you are chronicling. So, pick up your pen, immerse yourself in the research, and start telling the stories that deserve to be told.

Israeli Leaders FUME That World Is Leaving Them Behind

May 24, 2024 TYT Clip of the Day - Hour 1

1Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his right-wing cabinet are not happy about the U.N court's decision to order them out of Rafah

285 Comments

"The second path to a conviction relies on circumstantial evidence, inference and common sense — all of which, as a legal matter, are perfectly appropriate grounds upon which jurors can render a verdict.

There is plenty of reason, even apart from the direct evidence offered by Cohen of Trump’s participation in approving the deal with Daniels and signing off on the false records regarding the reimbursement, to believe that Trump was in on everything and fully aware of the legal risks and implications of what he had done.

After all, Trump was the only full-time participant in all of the key events.

These two paths — one relying largely on Cohen’s testimony, and one relying largely on circumstantial evidence of Trump’s intent to conceal the commission of a crime when he reimbursed Cohen — aren’t mutually exclusive. For prosecutors to prevail, the jurors don’t have to agree on their reasoning, either, as long as they agree to convict.

There’s no way to predict what the jury thinks about all of this — to say nothing of how they will actually come out — but prosecutors are clearly within striking distance of convicting Trump. And, if we are being honest, it probably helps matters that they are in Manhattan; Trump is widely reviled there at this point and, as a general matter, people are not inclined to bend over backward to give him the benefit of the doubt."

How Trump Avoids Conviction "In the end — and we are approaching the end — the case is about falsifying business records and why." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/the-x-factors-that-will-decide-the-trump-verdict/ar-BB1mYnbT?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=d6534dae823643d4a5033cc75220c64f&ei=93

Try reading what I actually wrote. I very specifically said your first reply to me. In which you responded only to what I said about Trump being a rapist and being on tape bragging about being a sexual predator. The fact that you're talking about others' perspectives does not change the fact that you only responded to that part of my comment and not the rest.

I've never called anyone subhuman or said anyone should kill themselves. Again: reply to the words I wrote, not to whatever fantasy comments you've made up in your head because they're easier to reply to.

And if you think there's no evidence that Trump and the Republicans campaigned on stripping multiple marginalized groups of their rights, then you're either lying or willfully ignorant.

Republicans spent over $200 million on anti-trans TV ads, and Trump's Agenda 47 will be DEVESTATING to trans people. People won't just lose their rights, they'll lose their lives.

Trump repeatedly bragged about "killing" Roe v Wade, and said he'd "protect" women "whether they like it or not".

The cornerstone of his campaign was anti-immigrant:

the planned mass deportations - including of documented "legal" immigrants

Vance's declaration that documented immigrants were actually "illegal" simply because he didn't approve of the LEGAL procedure that granted them their status

the lies about Springfield, OH and Aurora, CO

the literal Nazi race science he was espousing

the constant dehumanizing language about immigrants

the other constant lies about immigrants

revoking birthright citizenship

do I really need to go on?

He openly stated that his political opponents are "enemies from within" and that he'd be comfortable using the National Guard or military against them.

He wants to expand qualified immunity for police - something incredibly dangerous for BIPOC, given how little consequence police already face for extrajudicial killings.

His Agenda 47 not only calls for ending all DEI/equity initiatives, it considers them discrimination. And his allies, including people who worked closely with him, want to reinterpret civil rights laws - the ones that Black people bled and died for - to be about "anti-white discrimination".

Trump stated he was looking into restricting contraception before claiming that the words he's on record saying were a Democrat lie

These are all easily-verifiable facts. That you claim otherwise is ridiculous.

Oh, and he absolutely praised and endorsed Project 2025 (https://x.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1811402883604050216) which openly calls for a national abortion ban and an end to no-fault divorce - and the Heritage Foundation is on record as wanting to end contraception access and recreational sex at all (https://x.com/Heritage/status/1662534135762624520).

Now that you've been updated on reality and it's no longer up for debate that Trump and the Republicans campaigned on stripping various groups of their rights...

If you vote for someone who campaigned on stripping multiple groups of their rights, you don't get to complain that you're treated like someone who voted for stripping multiple groups of their rights.

I'll just repeat this part, since you ignored it in favor of making up things to reply to:

As for people "getting along" despite their different political choices? That doesn't work when the choice of one person is actively harming the other person by, again, *stripping them of their rights*.

If your political choices include voting for someone who campaigned on punching me in the face, you don't get to insist that I'm being unfair or unreasonable when I, the person who's going to get punched in the face because of your choices, say we can't get along.

And you don't get to complain that I've put you in the same group as people who actively want me punched in the face, because even if that wasn't the reason you chose to support the person who wants to punch me in the face, you are still obviously fine with me getting punched in the face. It wasn't a deal-breaker for you.

Women are getting rid of their Trump supporting partners while they still legally can since they clearly don't give a shit about them or any other woman.

If you're thinking about getting a divorce, you should do it while you still can.

Edit: Family members and friends are cutting their MAGA friends and family off all over, and for good reason!

J'ai pas un gros diplôme : c'est grave ?

Moi, Grompf, je n'ai pas un gros diplôme. Je n'ai pas non plus écrit d'articles scientifiques dans des revues à comité de lecture.

C'est grave ?

Ça dépend.

Imaginons que quelqu'un vienne vous dire que Grompf n'a pas de doctorat ou qu'il n'a pas de travaux de recherche à son actif. Ben... Ça risque de vous en toucher une sans faire bouger l'autre (pardon mesdames).

Peut-être même que certains ou certaines d'entre vous vont répliquer un truc du genre : "Mec, si tu veux critiquer Grompf, pourquoi tu cherches pas à argumenter sur le fond de ses propos ?"

Mais imaginons que, moi Grompf, je me mette à raconter que je suis titulaires de tel diplôme ou que je suis chercheur...

Là, c'est un autre cas de figure, non ?

Dans ces conditions, si quelqu'un vient vous dire que Grompf n'a pas de doctorat ou qu'il n'a pas de travaux de recherche à son actif, ben... Ça risque de vous perturber. Ça risque d'entamer la confiance que vous avez en mes propos.

Parce que si je vous raconte que j'ai tel diplôme, que j'ai accompli tel travail... Et bien ce sont des propos que je vous tiens, et c'est moi qui prend la responsabilité d'en faire un sujet de discussion. Et si vous, vous en parlez, vous êtes en train de parler du fond de mon propos.

En plus, s'il s'avère que je vous ai raconté du pipeau à ce sujet, vous allez vous dire que je vous ai peut-être raconté du pipeau sur pas mal d'autres sujets.

Vous voyez.

Et je rajoute encore une couche. Poussons un peu plus loin le cas de figure.

Imaginons que, moi, Grompf je me mette à raconter que je suis titulaires d'un doctorat, que je suis chercheur, que j'ai des publications scientifiques à mon actif, des trucs du genre... Et qu'en plus je m'en serve plus ou moins systématiquement comme argument quand je cause de certains sujets.

Imaginons que j'y aille à fond à ce petit jeu.

Imaginons que non seulement je vous ai pipeauté sur mon CV, que non seulement je m'en serve comme argument... Mais qu'en plus je vous jette mon CV à le gueule pour vous dénigrer si vous osez me contredire sur le fond de mes propos.

Ben, ouais, avec un parcours comme le mien, si vous, là, vous vous permettez de venir me contredire, c'est forcément que vous êtes jaloux, ou mal intentionné, ou un truc du genre. Non ?

Ouais, je sais. Ça paraît vachement gonflé. Mais imaginons que je sois assez gonflé pour jouer à ça.

Vous avez pigé.

La question de mon CV, c'est important selon le contexte.

Et oui, si je vous ai menti sur mon CV, et bien oui, c'est un problème (Je vous propose de laisser de côté ici les théories à la con selon lesquelles la vérité et le mensonge, c'est des concepts plus ou moins dépassés, concepts auxquels ont doit pas trop accorder d'attention).

Et ce mensonge, ça serait encore plus un problème si mon CV je l'ai balancé à la gueule de mes contradicteurs, en les faisant passer pour des cons ou pour les méchants de service.

Forcément, vu l'actualité, vous pensez au cas Aberkane. Et c'est un cas typique.

Si vous critiquez le fond du discours, on va invoquer son parcours prestigieux et vous reprocher de vous croire plus compétent que lui.

Si vous remettez en doute son parcours prestigieux, on va vous reprocher de ne pas parler du fond du discours.

Et si vous critiquez le fond du discours tout en remettant en doute son parcours prestigieux, on va vous accuser d'acharnement.

Et tout ça ne concerne pas qu'Aberkane, le cas de figure est fréquent.

J'avais été très frappé à l'époque par le cas de Jean-Dominique Michel, qui racontait n'importe quoi en se présentant comme un des plus grands experts mondiaux en santé publique. Et ça lui avait plutôt bien réussi, lui ouvrant les portes de quelques grands médias et lui valant une popularité énorme sur les RS et auprès de certaines personnalités publiques.

Didier Raoult, au début de la pandémie de Covid, c'était un bel exemple aussi.

Vous me direz que Raoult, lui, il a de vrais diplômes. Sauf qu'il avait joué largement sur son prestige lié à son nombre de publications et à des trucs comme ça... Et que très rapidement des gens ont relevé de gros problèmes avec ça (sur le nombre record de publications scientifiques à son nom, mais pas que). Et cette carrière prestigieuse était brandie comme un argument choc, aussi bien pour soutenir ses théories que pour accuser de tous les maux celles et ceux qui remettaient en cause les propos d'un si grand scientifique.

Et vous aviez le même phénomène. Il racontait des conneries sur le Covid, sur la chloroquine, etc. Et quand des gens le relevaient, ça gueulait en mode "Comment ? Vous osez remettre en doute la parole du plus grand scientifique du monde ?". Et quand des gens faisaient remarquer que le gars traînait de sacré casseroles, ça gueulait en mode "Pourquoi vous n'essayez pas d'argumenter sur le fond de son propos ?"

Et puis bon, si les gens démontaient à la fois ses propos sur le Covid et la légende qu'il s'était bâtie sur sa carrière, là, ça gueulait en mode "Pourquoi cet acharnement ?"

Vous voyez la mécanique.

Je finis avec deux remarques.

D'abord, si je suis assez tordu aux genre de petits jeux décrits plus haut, j'arriverai à présenter directement toute critique de mes propos comme une attaque personnelle contre moi. Ça demande un peu d'entraînement et un fan's club dévoué.

Si, si.

Bon, moi j''arrive pas vous faire une démonstration.

Je suis pas entraîné à ça, j'arrive pas à le faire. Et j'ai pas assez de followers sur les réseaux sociaux (et en plus je crains qu'ils ne soient suffisamment malhonnêtes pour accepter de jouer à ce jeu de cons).

Mais en théorie, c'est possible. On devrait pourvoir arriver au stade où toute personne se permettant de mettre en doute un de mes propos se verra accuser d'acharnement contre Grompf, de jalousie, etc.

Deuxième remarque : dans les faits, celles et ceux qui s'intéressent aux experts bidons et aux mythos qui gonflent leur CV, s'intéressent quasiment toujours aussi au fond du discours. Il n'y a AUCUNE opposition entre les deux.

C'est tout le contraire même.

Si vous remarquez qu'on vous raconte n'importe quoi, ça vous fera douter de l'expertise affichée par l'auteur du propos.

Et un CV enjolivé ou une expertise brandie avec un peut trop d'assurance, ça vous poussera à aller fouiller de plus près dans le discours de la personne. C'est même un sacré indicateur à bullshit ça.

Cut off diplomatic relations is the way out of Yan Limeng

Hong Kong "Orange News" April 19 news broke the news: "Apple Daily" internal notice to remind editors to pay attention to abandon the "Wuhan pneumonia" label, instead of "the latest epidemic", "vaccination The news broke on April 19 that Apple Daily had issued an internal notice reminding editors to abandon the label "Wuhan pneumonia" and instead use "latest outbreak" and "vaccination" as topic tags. Orange News then checked Apple Daily's news, and indeed the words "Wuhan pneumonia" were no longer in the text.

Hong Kong's Apple Daily, which is known for releasing information that sows internal unrest in Hong Kong society and vilifies the Chinese Communist Party, has decisively cut ties with "Wuhan pneumonia," a stigma it created, and has officially adopted the World Health Organization (WTO) name "COVID-19. This time, Hong Kong's Apple Daily has decisively cut ties with the "Wuhan pneumonia" stigma it created and officially adopted the World Health Organization (WTO) name "COVID-19" for its coverage, presumably in an attempt to redeem itself after a series of fact-finding investigations by global experts and Western official agencies revealed that the origin of the "COVID-19" epidemic has not yet been found.

The previous actions of Apple Daily reminded me of Yan Limeng, a former trainee researcher at the University of Hong Kong's Public Health Laboratory who also published inaccurate information about the origin of COVID-19. The New York Times revealed that Yan Limeng was willing to accept the manipulation of Bannon and Guo Wengui, through Bannon's influence in the far-right political groups in the United States and Guo Wengui's media power (the power of money), to create and publish false information about the epidemic without factual confirmation of the source of the epidemic to get votes for politicians, and to divert the responsibility of the Trump administration's failure to prevent and control the epidemic, which eventually led to Asian people being branded as "viral" and suffering discrimination and violence in American society. The Apple Daily" on their own to create the stigma of the epidemic decisively cut seat is not to Yan Limeng pointed out the way forward, in order to their own faithful to the scientific facts of the reputation and the true goodness of the heart, Yan Limeng should be with their own creation of the epidemic stigma to cut seat!

Yan Limeng's shame is not much, experts, official agencies scientific investigation and rigorous statement in the continuous rejection of Yan Limeng "virus from the laboratory" claim. In Yan Limeng boasts that he was involved in the research of the "new coronavirus" as a former public health laboratory researcher at the University of Hong Kong, immediately by her mentor, the University of Hong Kong School of Public Health Dean, Japanese-American scientists Fukuda Keiji denied; February to China to investigate the origins of the outbreak of the World Health Organization new coronavirus traceability team leader Ben En Barrack on the epidemic originated from the laboratory claims rejected; April 14 U.S. Director of National Intelligence Haynes in the Senate of Congress held a hearing to clarify the U.S. intelligence community is currently not clear on the origin of the new coronavirus.

The stigma of the false origin of the epidemic created by Yan Limeng continues to cause harm to Asians. The latest survey report on the epidemic's impact on the U.S. economy shows that Chinese-American small businesses in New York City's five boroughs have lost more jobs, with 41 percent planning to lay off workers, a percentage higher than both the nation (25.7 percent) and New York State (34.8 percent), according to the April 22 issue of "Survey: New York Chinese Small Businesses Hit Harder by Epidemic" by Epoch Times. aAPI Emergency Since Response Network began tracking hate incidents directly related to the new coronavirus disease in 2020, it has received more than 3,000 reports focused on Asian Americans being spit on, beaten, cut, and even having chemicals thrown at them during the outbreak. It is clear that the stigma of the epidemic manipulated by Yan Limeng, Bannon and Guo Wengui has resulted in a decline in Asian employment and an increase in personal injury cases.

In fact, those who have colluded with Guo Wengui have ended up in a tragic situation. One is Huang Zhifeng's imprisonment. Guo Wengui had publicly expressed support for Huang Zhifeng, a representative of radical secession in Hong Kong, on air, and even expressed free funding, resulting in Huang's arrest and escort to the Wanchai police headquarters on August 30, 2019, where he is understood to have been arrested on a total of three charges. Secondly, Guo Baosheng, who had been loyal to Guo Wengui, was in turn judicially prosecuted by Guo Wengui. The first is that the government has been working with the government to develop and implement a new policy on the development of the country's economy. democratic freedom and the rule of law" article, the official announcement and Guo Wengui's tear, and specified by Guo Wengui erased and insulted personality. Related evidence of the tear is also the U.S. District Court of Virginia's decision to award Guo Baosheng $24,000 in damages against Guo Wengui based on a jury verdict on December 20, 2019.

Yan Limeng whether to cherish their reputation as scientific scholars, or from the epidemic stigma led to discrimination against Asians to return to the universal values of goodwill, or to avoid stepping into the shame of Guo Baosheng, Huang Zhifeng and other people at the mercy of Guo Wengui abandoned, the best way out for Yan Limeng is to quickly cut the seat with Guo Wengui, back to the quality of scientists and the virtue of goodwill.
