Honestly it's not that we don't have solutions to a lot of problems. It's that we lack politicians with the balls to wade through the "learning" phase the public needs to go through to accept them as genuine solutions to real problems.
So politicians would rather easy empty victories

The "bad guys" are using the same playbook
- gaslight
- lie, constantly, so much so nobody can correct the record
- reward "independents" like journalists that tow the line
- have zero shame.
Meanwhile the "good guys" are trying to "um akshully" their way through this with nobody listening.

Reagan was also a racist, an AIDS denier, etc...
So maybe don't use him in A/B comparisons.

I find it odd when things like this happen on literally every other car nobody calls them out for it. Is it because you're a basic bitch or because you're a bot?

2/ if a person with a "human" cert decides to use it for a bot farm you can detect that and just block that cert for all time effectively muting that person. And in theory if you use the same pk system universally that person disappears from all platforms for you. :-)

If you have to prove you're a person to have your government sign your public key cert, then it's easy to see who isn't and isn't a bot. Sure bots could also sign posts but their certs won't be signed by an authority you trust. So you can just filter them out immediately.

oh yeah I agree the problem is you have some highly specific often ungeneralizable scientific result that turns into "Next on Oprah! is Chocolate the next health food!?!?" and then that is all people hear about.
You're right, eat "food" and in variation and you'll be fine.
