6) For an example of a mind set on a conclusion & impervious to arguments/evidence/facts. Many, many lawsuits and numerous recounts yielded nothing. Yet you keep getting such crap. Move on. Work on the next election. Life continues. https://t.co/5qhR9OIWfe — PolitiTweet.org

You can see the problem with: + Distributions: economists & statisticians have no consciousness that the Gaussian is a special case & can't handle the more general. + "Correlation" is special to linear association & people think it is "evidence based". + "Sharpe ratio", factor... — PolitiTweet.org

5) MOVING TARGET Smelled a rat when some started invoking Benford's Law to claim election fraud. They did not DETECT fraud, but starting from a prior of fraud, looked for confirmation misusing BL. After BL was debunked they looked for other arguments. https://t.co/bkROUgD0qS — PolitiTweet.org

A mathematical mind works in reverse: a matrix is a special case of a tensor, a vector a special case of a matrix. In probability, those NonRussians who start from special cases make yuuuge mistakes in higher dimensions (like idiotic psychologists/geneticists w/IQ problems). — PolitiTweet.org

4) If Twitter is deemed to be a "utility", then they must never ban anybody. If Twitter is a private company they can ban anyone they want/curate the feeds as they detect dangerous fake news as w/Covid cranks. The truth is complicated & the notion of "balance" is hard to gauge. — PolitiTweet.org

3) So the compromise is that Twitter MUST ethically ban some pple on the other side who violate similar rules threatening the democratic process. And if the democratic process seems too flawed owing to lobbies working both sides, consider an active targeting of these lobbyists. — PolitiTweet.org

2) Now one MUST wonder: what abt those on the left who also called for violent insurrection agst elected govmnt? Perhaps there is something about right wing-racial supremacist weirdoes that is especially dangerous, or morally repelling compared to rebellion by race victims. — PolitiTweet.org

SOCIAL MEDIA & TRUMP 1/ Remember that social media got Trump elected. Twitter decided to not be a vehicle for violent insurrection against elected government. There is no possible evidence that can convince conspiracy weirdoes that the election, ANY election, isn't rigged. — PolitiTweet.org

@Confusezeus Levantine (NorthWest Levantine) is a language. Lebanese is a dialect of it. With the prestige going to the Beiruti & Damascene dialects, each should some day become a language.
