    Of course Seth Abramson breathlessly shared the Root article claiming Russian hackers changed votes (it was so misleading the website took it down). And of course after they withdrew it he doubled down, denigrating experts in the relevant field with self-aggrandizing mumbo jumbo.pic.twitter.com/uQL3RLbvCm

        Abramson pulls a trick common to con artists, fortune tellers (and some pundits): Speculate, then claim credit when guessing right while either ignoring or spinning the times you guessed wrong. People tend to remember correct predictions more than incorrect ones.

        Another trick: Inflate credentials. Claim expertise and argue from authority. Working at a "research university" sounds impressive. But it doesn't make you an expert on everything. Teaching English doesn't make you more of an expert on cybersecurity than cybersecurity experts.

        I teach at a research university. Political science (international relations). But that doesn't mean I'm an expert on, say, biochemistry.

        I see a big difference between evidence about what happened in the past and about what may be possible in the future. Claims that circumstantial evidence shows votes were changed are unconvincing & irresponsible, often based on an assumption that polls are definitely accurate 1/2

        That being said, I certainly do not have objections to your focus on the integrity of future elections. I've expressed concern for the vulnerability of our election systems and will continue to do so. 2/2

        The Root article took a lot of liberties. And it is unfortunate that after all this time THAT was the article so many large accounts chose to amplify on the issue of whether votes were altered. Now that the article’s been pulled, it has undermined what is a legitimate concern. 1/
