@Goneri Pour moi, non expert en la matière, j'aurais tendance à penser qu'il manque l'acceptation par la communauté scientifique que l'adversaire lui n'accepte pas le dialogue scientifique, et même feint le dialogue, et utilise même la desinformation. Et que c'est une forme de radicalité politique assez extrème, voire d'influence fasciste/dictatoriale/authoritaire

Mais bon, j'ai beaucoup à apprendre en , la science de la desinformation, de l'ignorance programmée

Learned a depressing word recently:

"Within the sociology of knowledge, agnotology (formerly agnatology) is the study of deliberate, culturally induced ignorance or doubt, typically to sell a product, influence opinion, or win favour, particularly through the publication of inaccurate or misleading scientific data (disinformation)."

Make it true:
Hannah observed that men gaining in Germany did not lie because they believed what they were saying, or even because they expected YOU to believe it. They were lying to state out what had to become in order to justify what they intended to do.

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced or the convinced , but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist.”
― Hannah Arendt, "The Origins of Totalitarianism"

Read about :
"The great thing about the divide-and-conquer of creating white-skin is that you don’t have to give people thusly bought off anything more, and American power structures didn’t. In places with black , the whites suffered terribly.

"There is a simple truth to American history for the majority of people who have ever been American: the worse the black experience, the worse everyone else’s experience, including whites. Driving down (or eliminating) black , while always agreeable to whites, drove white pay lower than their European counterparts for most of our history."

“Mass discovered that its audience was ready at all times to believe the worst, no matter how absurd, and did not particularly object to being deceived because it held every statement to be a lie anyhow. The totalitarian mass leaders based their propaganda on the correct psychological assumption that, under such conditions, one could make people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in ; instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.”

shocking (yet not surprising) example of here. to subtweet - when STSers write ab/ 🇳🇱 covid policy, this kind of thing needs to be highlighted prominently (instead of arguing that the breakdown in 🇳🇱 covid consensus was due to good-faith disagreements ab/ values). 1/2
