Being
The arrest of Awan, a REAL DNC HACKER from PAKISTAN, provides a perfect shibboleth dividing real news from fake news. The Wikileaks circle of real news covers the arrest in proper journalistic order, while the fake news, both national and "local", continues to cover the totally false and fictional lunatic soap opera of RUSSIANHACKING. What did Manafort know and when did he know it? What did Donald Junior know and when did he stop knowing it? What did Mattis fail to know and unwhen didn't he not fail to unknow it? Why didn't Flynn fail to not condemn Manafort for Manafort's nonmeeting with nobody at no uncertain unlocation?

How can you tell the difference between real news and fake news? Easy.

Real news is facts. Things that HAPPENED.

Fake news is bad philosophy. Convoluted epistemology. Talking about talking about knowing about not talking about not not knowing about not talking about talking about not not not not talking about knowing.

One of the Wikileaks circle published a document from the DNC dump showing Awan interacting with Wasserman-Schultz. I was more impressed by another part of the document. It explains fully why politicians are crazy beyond crazy.

This is six hours of DWS MOVEMENTS. The title itself explains everything. DWS is not making anything. DWS is not even making DECISIONS, supposedly the job of an executive.

DWS is just MOVING. Or more precisely DWS is being carted around to 12 different places in 6 hours. DWS is a robot, making preprogrammed IMPROMPTU appearances in a dozen places so the appropriate people can be seen with the robot.

Who is making the decisions? Obviously the staff who program the robot and schedule the limos and caterers and halls and so on.

In all of this MOVEMENT nobody ever decides on meaningful actions. The only decisions are who gets to BE with the DWS robot and who doesn't get to BE with the DWS robot.

This is even stupider than the bad epistemology of fake news. This is corrupt ontology.

The third leg of philosophy is COMPLETELY MISSING. There's no TELEOLOGY at all. No PURPOSE. Nobody ever steps back and asks WHY it's necessary to have all of these preprogrammed robots driving and flying around 24 hours a day and BEING in various places.

= = = = =

Irrelevant sidenote: How does this compare with my own non-BEING life? DWS was in 12 different places in 6 hours, which is apparently a typical rate of BEING for DWS.

How long does it take me to BE inside 12 different buildings? In the last 12 months, which were unusually active because of last September's surgery, I can count 9 different buildings. Home, two different Safeways, WalMart, hardware store, dentist, regular doctor, surgeon, hospital for surgery. My normal pattern is 7 locations per year, equivalent to 1/6 day of DWS BEING.

So DWS bes 1877 times faster than I be.

Well, that isn't really the proper comparison. More appropriately, my typical day includes two buildings: home and a store. Safeway or WalMart or hardware. By this method DWS bes 18 times faster than I be, not 1877.

Did I ever approach the DWS be-rate? Back in the '80s when I was working 1.5 jobs and eating in restaurants, my typical day included about 10 buildings. That's getting closer.
