Interesting thread by Maya Forstater.

Fascinating how systems based on preference falsification become extreme, with a false middle.

I am off to bed, but hopefully the more politically minded will have a look and make sense of it

Any takers?

Yup, agreed. People pretending to believe something quite often over egg it, like hammy actors!

And when the house of cards comes crashing down...

Interesting.

This has been visible in the past two elections where polls before hand suggest that voters aren't willing to admit openly that they will vote conservative... but in the privacy of the ballot box then do.

this is a great podcast which discusses preference falsification among other factors influencing mass social change. Transcript is there too, for those of you like me who prefer to absorb information in text form.
