[1/*] Using Twitter has put reading comprehension into a very different perspective for me. I used to think reading comprehension tests were silly when I was in grade school, because they seem so easy. But I guess I took for granted the skill of understanding a paragraph of text.
It's just reading and memory, AFAICT. People just kind of reduce things down to extremely simple models that are totally incorrect, like in the example I give in this thread where there were two grant proposals, but people think there was only one.

I don't think anyone cares about the grant proposals tbh. The media narrative looks like NIH funds lab, lab creates gain of function == NIH funds gain of function. This looks to me like deliberate misinterpretation for political leverage against Fauci.

i.e. not a lack of comprehension. Just lying for political reasons.
