      A good thread examining the epistemological problems in contemporary "science" but ultimately futile because it doesn't get at the crux of the issue: It's not just science that's in an epistemological crisis - it's our entire society. https://twitter.com/pegobry/status/1425894421984276482 …

      A good argument has three elements: Data Warrant Claim Claim is the proposition, data is data, warrant is the link between the data and the claim. Good arguments need good data that is well sourced. They do not need well *sourced* warrants or claims.

      As with everything in our society, #manipulatingProceduralOutcomes comes to the fore. Instead of worrying about data sourcing all institutions that do official reasoning worry about sourcing warrants and claims - ensuring that no wrong conclusions can be reached.

      Official virologists say that "travel bans don't stop pandemics" and this claim is accepted because they're virologists. What part of an argument did they have? Claim? Sure Data? No Warrant? Laughable What they did have was official sanction as experts.

      That was enough. What it comes down to is that you only have to care about getting things right if you worry about reality. If bad results are someone else's fault then why not indulge in bad reasoning if it lets you say what's politically convenient to your side?

      Since our system is set up on the principle of responsibility laundering where no result is ever directly traceable to a person (unless the system is blaming an enemy for a bad result) no one on the inside of such a system has any motivation to reason well.

          One phrase that belongs up there with that one is #appropriateContext - it cuts to the core just as much as MPO. "Ah, you lack *appropriate context* [the official party line]". https://twitter.com/TweetWivMe/status/1426114983570644995 …

          There's an apocryphal story about Columbus pitching his venture to VCs - challenges everyone to balance an egg on an end. Everyone tries, fails. He takes out a hard boiled egg, crushes the tip, balances it. Many things are obvious once demonstrated.https://twitter.com/LucerneBolvin/status/1426114662760919048 …

          I'm currently in the process of teaching claim warrant evidence to middle schoolers in the first days of debate class. It surprises me how unintuitive it can be for people who aren't trained to think in this way. I always assumed it was obvious.

          Reasoning well isn't obvious or easy and teaching it has been intentionally subverted because our society rests on so many false assumptions that collapse if the implications are considered The easiest way to keep it going was making considering the implications of things taboo
