Day after bombing Iran into war, Trump spews 30 Truth posts: naval boasts crushed under McConnell corpse reels, stale Gaga nods, corgi whipped-cream romps. Leadership liquefies in vanity sludge. #TruthDecay

Disinformation rarely arrives as an obvious lie. It gets cleaned, repeated, and laundered through influencers until it feels like “common sense.” We need to track the pipeline, not just the final post. #DailyMindBrew #truthdecay

Seven years ago this week, @rand.org published "Truth Decay," the book that @jekavanagh.bsky.social and I wrote about the diminishing role of facts and analysis in American public life. #TruthDecay 1/10

“He tells it like it is,” they say—
about a man who lies like he breathes.
Maybe “truth” now just means “the version that flatters me.”

My impression of Waltz — and it is an honest first impression — is that even he doesn't know the answers to many of the questions asked about the #IranWar #WarOfChoice
Decades of #TruthDecay led to #Truth being the first casualty ... again. But this time, a #TruthBlackout was the first step.

RUBIO: “Imagine if Iran spent billions on its people instead of weapons... They’d have a much different country.”🤔😕

“Elegía para una Verdad Perdida”
Every day the facts become harder to swallow—how did corruption get so deep, so suddenly? Or has it always been there, festering beneath the surface?

Captures @rand.org's 2018 concept of #truthdecay:
✔️growing disagreement about facts;
✔️blurring lines between opinion & fact;
✔️increased volume/influence of opinion over fact;
✔️lower trust in sources of factual information.
Only proposed update: 'decay' is organic. This is deliberate demolition.

@gideonrachman.bsky.social opens this great column by noting how Greenland’s outsize representation on the widely-used Mercator map projection (left) might have stoked Donald Trump’s desire for it. Contrast with the discreet presence on the Gall-Peters projection (right).

Truth decay is real—and it’s not about teeth. In a world of endless misinformation, we risk losing something far more valuable than facts: our trust. Without discernment, even good intentions can lead us astray. #TruthDecay #DiscernmentMatters #FaithAndWisdom #DigitalDeluge #ProtectYourMind

Trump's reality TV tactics meet Musk's internet meme game. Both prioritize spectacle over substance, blurring fantasy and reality. This dangerous mix influences policy, impacts the economy, and threatens programs like Social Security. #PoliticalTheater #TechInfluence #TruthDecay
