   And read by bots, none of whom have any contact with the real world...   
      
   Mind you, is it any different today? For bots subsiture 'believers' of   
   one sort or another.   
   Militant atheists, god botherers, disciples of Trump. those who think   
   Trump is fucking Satan... Climate Believers and Climate Deniers.  All   
   promoting specific agendas to distract people from the realWorld™   
      
   Climate? I look out the window. 100% overcast, ceiling 500', wind around   
   15 knots,  sporadic rain. 6°C.

   “It is not the truth of Marxism that explains the willingness of   
   intellectuals to believe it, but the power that it confers on   
   intellectuals, in their attempts to control the world. And since...it is   
   futile to reason someone out of a thing that he was not reasoned into,   
   we can conclude that Marxism owes its remarkable power to survive every   
   criticism to the fact that it is not a truth-directed but a   
   power-directed system of thought.”
