Are you expressing your personal POV as an example of
something so far removed from reality that it is worthy of
documenting it here on this thread?

FWIW, then & only then would that post be considered "on
topic" on this thread.......

<font size=4>
This thread will be a place to link posts from folks who seem to cling to perceptions that defy reality even as time & events unfold in stark contrast to these stated POV's. Any subject is fair game here.

This thread was created as a place for me to freely rant & rave about reality defying POV's I see all over SI & elsewhere. However, for those so inclined, feel free to share something you have read (please link it) & discuss why you think these POV's were born of false perceptions, fervent, inflexible ideological beliefs, extreme bias, etc.

Please try to stick to facts & reality (I.E. facts &
reality that are widely accepted & easily supported - not
because you or your ideological peers say so).


Disagreements are welcome - even vehement disagreements. If you are going to debate differing POV's, attack the subject matter, not the person. I'll have a very low tolerance for personal attacks.

“Most people nurture the facts that confirm their world
view and ignore or marginalize the ones that don't, unable
to achieve enough emotional detachment from their own
political passions to see the world as it really is.” -
