When a political idiot tries to explain science
« on: September 12, 2023, 10:03:03 PM »
Her question was, in light of studies that say masking young kids in school had no measurable benefit (and she left out that other studies show masking causes harm to kids), the answer was essentially:

We follow the science that we believe in, which can only come from the CDC. 
We believe what they say because they follow the narrative that best suits our agenda.
Anyone saying the CDC should entertain science from any other scientists needs to shut up.


These Democrats are pure evil.

Notice how she's always looking down when she's talking.  Telltale sign of a liar.

HA! I was just about to mention that about her body language.
I think it would be good to study more about reading body language since there seems to be so much BS nowadays.

That, and she's also having to refer to her prepared talking points. 

That's been her MO since she began lying to the public on behalf of the White House.  She doesn't appear to know anything other than which binder tab has the closest thing to an answer  -- which is to say sometimes it's not close at all.

i miss the days when the press and WH spokesperson could have a coherent and somewhat sequential exchange of questions and answers.

In this clip, she was asked about the science behind kids wearing masks, and the idiot goes off about how Trump's administration did nothing to fight the pandemic.

Evil.

That is not a reliable indicator of dishonesty.

She is however a frequent liar and she was contradicting herself here.

One of the few times you might be right.  When dealing with sociopaths most your body language
interpretations/norms don't apply.

There are a lot of myths about body language and dishonesty and most of them are all false or not reliable. There are a few that can be indicators of dishonesty but it is in a certain setting and context.
There is a good book on this, I think it is called Spy the Lie. I have it somewhere on my shelf.

Oh god the irony....

Butt hurt?

Go start a thread on micro-expressions and deception detection somewhere else.  Stop derailing every thread you encounter.

The irony continues.
You are the one who agreed that looking down was a sign she was a liar.  I didn't start the tangent about body language.

You just can't stand someone pointing out that you are wrong about something.
