@DavidDeutschOxf We are in an "evidence era" where the only legitimate way to speak is by invoking a concept of "evidence", regardless of how we then transform actual evidence into a political form of it. It allows us to deny responsibility for our views, as we blame an external "divinity" we.

The worrying thing about government policies against disinformation is that it promotes an institutionalized (and static) view on truth, when in reality what we imagine to be true today is often proven to be false tomorrow as new evidence comes to light. We are being taken back.

Spain is most comparable to France in 1848, a young naive democracy that has no idea what democracy is. They are just waiting for their Napoleon III unless they can form an actual liberal party as an alternative to the fascist travesties that are the socialist party and the.

It seems now the Evidence Era has fully penetrated sports as well… its never good how evidence becomes transformed into "evidence" in order to legitimise a practice so it cannot be scrutinised but must be taken as a "divine truth".
