Democracy has failed the US,maybe it's time for a King
That's not "truth". 😆 Here are some guidelines to help identify truth: 1. Consistency Truth is often consistent over time and across different situations. If a claim aligns with established facts or remains stable under scrutiny, it may indicate truth. 2. Evidence-Based Truth is supported by credible evidence. Look for: Reliable sources: Peer-reviewed studies, expert opinions, and verified data. Reproducibility: Claims that can be independently verified or tested. 3. Logical Coherence Truth aligns with logic and reason. It should follow clear reasoning and avoid contradictions. 4. Context Awareness Recognizing truth requires understanding the context. Consider cultural, historical, and situational factors that might influence perception or presentation. 5. Lack of Bias Truth seeks objectivity. Evaluate whether the information is free from personal, financial, or ideological bias. 6. Cross-Verification Compare information from multiple independent sources. If diverse perspectives agree, it strengthens credibility. 7. Clarity and Simplicity Truth is often straightforward and doesn't require overly complicated justifications. (Occam's Razor: the simplest explanation is often correct.) 8. Openness to Scrutiny Truth welcomes questions and challenges. Claims that withstand rigorous examination are more likely to be valid. 9. Authenticity Truth resonates with reality and aligns with personal experiences or observations, though subjective truth requires careful consideration alongside objective evidence. 10. Humility in Doubt Recognizing truth often involves acknowledging uncertainties and being open to updates when new evidence arises. -

"Climate Change" is causing the LA fires...or is it?
The predictions for the future are based on climate models. And those models are far away from accurate. We can agree that humans contributed to climate change. But what difference will it make in 100 years? What inventions will we have within the next 100 years and beyond? Nobody knows! Over 100 years horse manure, see picture, was the biggest crisis in NYC. And then someone invented the automobile, and that crisis was gone. I wonder how many people predicted that dramatic change at that time. -

"Climate Change" is causing the LA fires...or is it?
Scientists measure and calculate. Activists take bits of what scientists say and then then shout a lot and pretend they know it all.
