Case Study: “Biden Should Stand Down”
Fascinating to watch who falls for this idea that President Biden should stand down. You see, Disinformation doesn’t happen to the ignorant. Infects all of us. Even those whose judgment we trust, in many many policy areas. The troll — Biden should stand down — is perfectly designed to match that vulnerability. If you see yourself falling for it — use your Incoming Troll Radar to watch which ideas you allow into your Inner Mind (the place where ideas mingle with your Mana), understand you are at risk of being manipulated. Resist.

This is Tool 2 in action on a live case. A troll “perfectly designed to match that vulnerability” — aimed at people who care about democracy. The test: apply the Generosity criterion. Is “Biden should stand down while his opponent faces no such pressure” generous? No. Incoming Troll Radar fires.
