Shallow dismissals like "straight up false" that contradict multiple reputable news outlets aren't "debunking". Calling well-know human right activist NGOs "handful of nerds" is straight up misinformation. | ||

> Shallow dismissals like "straight up false" If something is false, which the headline is, then calling it false isn't a "dismissal", it's asserting reality. If you don't understand this, then you may have trouble with actually using logic. > Calling well-know human right activist NGOs "handful of nerds" is straight up misinformation. No, it's factually not. It's pejorative and not in good taste, but saying that it is "misinformation" is just a lie. (that's consistent with your previous post though) | ||

Shallow dismissals? The claim that ‘Apple defined ICE as a "protected class"’ is explicitly false, there’s nothing more that could possibly be said to dismiss it. It simply never happened! Boingboing lied, it happens. > Calling well-know human right activist NGOs "handful of nerds" is straight up misinformation No it isn’t. But describing OWA the same way one might describe Amnesty International does feel somewhat dishonest. That is an advocacy organisation serving the special interests of a handful of nerds. | ||
