Wokeness

When responsible people come across something that is both preposterous and attributed to someone they suppose to be credible, the first thing they do is head to Snopes, or some other place online where they can verify or discard it.  Yes, Elon Musk really did say this.

The only conclusion to be drawn here is that we live in a post-truth world, where facts have ceased to matter and reality is up for grabs.  The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal are fake news, and Donald Trump is an honest man.  Darkness and light, tall and short, good and evil mean the same thing.

The world’s richest man is a complete asshole.  Just what humankind needed at this critical moment in time.
