Random Thought of the Day

Anyone with critical thinking skills should have been at least a little suspicious the Jussie Smollett “hate crime” was a hoax, but people want to believe whatever fits their worldview. Smollett joins a long list of hate crime hoaxes in the Trump era. It should say something that hate crimes are so rare that the liberal media readily seek out and gullibly believe any stories they can find. One thing seems to be missing in every analysis of hate crimes, real and imagined. That is, in a nation of 325 million, there will always be assorted nutballs, but they don’t represent the wider population. If the media dug up 10 genuine hate crimes, they’d be screaming like it’s a nationwide epidemic, but even then, it would still be only .0000031% of the population. Any statistician would roll their eyes if you tried to draw meaningful conclusions on the nation as a whole. I’m not sure what they teach in journalism school nowadays, certainly not logic or fairness. It is sad that half the country still believes most every bit of propaganda BS the liberal media churns out.
