Veritas,

That’s nice but it’s seems pretty random, I’d say Dr. Oz deserves having his medical license suspended much more.

According to multiple studies, the scientific accuracy of “The Dr. Oz Show” has been called into question. Researchers from the University of Alberta in Canada found that only 46% of the recommendations made on the show were supported by research, while nearly 4 in 10 assertions appeared to be made on the basis of no evidence at all.

Veritas,

Here is primarily where Mr. Norton is sourcing everything from if you are all interested.

Some other interesting notes:

  • Majority support Russia as the most ‘trustworthy foreign actor’, this includes China
  • Majority support military junta staying in power, separate pluralities for ‘an extended period’ and ‘until new elections are held’. 54% do not want military intervention from ECOWAS
  • Data is from ‘Premise data’. a crowdsourced (??) polling aggregate from users in various countries. www.premise.com/why-premise/
  • Typical ‘new and amazing breakthrough company’ bullshit lingo aside, they seem to just have a ready crowd of ‘volunteers’ in various places that they can send questions to at any time, idk if they posted anything about demographics or specific polling data as I can’t find the poll itself.

tass.com/world/1658013This outlet claims that ‘The poll was conducted among highly educated male citizens, 62% of whom were residents of the capital.’

On reddit, the article received a few comments about how Africans dont want democracy and then was deleted on /r/worldnews.

That’s essentially what I’ve found on this specific topic.

Is Seeing a Downvote Button for Instances Without Downvote a Bug?

I recently encountered a situation where I tried to downvote a post from an instance that didn’t seem to have downvotes enabled. However, my vote didn’t affect the score, which made me question why the downvote button was even displayed in the first place. It felt like it was just baiting me into thinking I could downvote....

Veritas,

Do the americans also gather to cheer on their military like that?

Veritas,

I wish there was something like autogpt that used a model like this + search to actually be able to write some functions with more accuracy.

Many think Rumble is an untrustworthy source. I like the fact that it refuses to limit free speech.

Rumble says it won’t move its policy goalposts to appease France’s censorship demands

Veritas,

Nice insight. Go back to watching government approved propaganda.

Veritas,

You say whatever the tube tells you to say. And anyone who disagrees is spreading disinformation.

Veritas,

Because China and Iran are invading countries every day the same as the US. Why don’t you mention Cuba too, who is considered a terrorist state when all it does is send medics instead of troops like the US and calling them “humanitarian aid” while they kill civilians and children. The US and Israel are the terrorists.

Veritas,

They are shifting resources to TikTok and Instagram 🤢

Veritas,

BBC, CNN and old those also have videos, base your accusation on something so I get to criticize it too, don’t just talk out of your ass.

Veritas,

Doesn’t it tell you something that people get banned just for reporting the news? I don’t see anything wrong with the video and yet YouTube doesn’t allow their content.

Veritas,

My ideas change over time, so I guess all information may shift my position.

Veritas,

Any examples? I think you are just making an assumption.

Veritas, (edited )

I’m not telling you to believe what he says. RT shouldn’t be trusted and neither should BBC, CNN, and other US propaganda outlets. The only way to learn the truth is looking at both perspectives and using critical thinking.
