re: #194 Blind Frog Belly White

For me, it’s the denial of evidence - indeed the denial of the importance of evidence to knowing what is and isn’t true.

For me, denial of evidence is the same as lying.

There’s an interesting concept in some parts of the law where someone who makes statements with reckless disregard for whether they are true or false can be charged with deliberately lying. In other words, bullshitting is legally treated as lying.

Application of that idea to US politics would lay waste to the Republican party.
