An example of how sampling bias might disappear facts while putting data in to guide machine-generated text:

I just loved that the Washington Post piece on Apartheid Clyde's fall from grace –that we all avidly read– was just short of the amount of journalism necessary to take away from him the label of "genius" that the WaPo so laboriously helped to build together with the rest of the press corps.

@robert_said_what said:

If a candidate, use Kari Lake as an example decides to cite fraud and refuse to concede every single Republican that ran in that race should not be seated either.

Mock them for stupidity
