Scott Adams of Dilbert on Trump's Genius

[EE_]

"women don't want to be like Hillary, because men fucking hate Hillary"

"if ISIS strikes, men and women will go to the stronger candidate"

Recent Scott Adams internet drama is interesting and more than just entertaining in that it exposes the cognitive dissonance and 'crazy-making' that many others may soon start exhibiting if they start wrestling with an increasing awareness that taking the vaccines was a mistake.

Kudos to Scott perhaps for starting to struggle with this issue before many other establishment types his age. Surprisingly watching Scott's blogging over the last few years, culminating in this latest 'scandal' he often seems more akin to Dilbert's Pointy-haired Boss that Dilbert. Having been a fan of his Dilbert character's perspective for decades this was surprising. I've wondered if this was due him being in 'the club' of corporate mainstream news media. Anyway his strange establishment takes on so many issues over the last few years, and now his awkward anger and cognitive dissonance over the vaccine problem is triggering a lot of online backlash from viewers of his video blogging.

Ben Garrison brilliantly sums up the situation in a new cartoon: https://grrrgraphics.com/illbert-a-parody/

"taking the vaccines was a mistake"

An error is a wandering from truth, primarily in impression, judgment, or calculation and, by extension of the idea, in conduct; it may be a state. A mistake is a false judgment or choice; it does not, as error sometimes does, imply moral obliquity, the defect being placed wholly in the wisdom of the actor, and in its treatment of this defect the word is altogether gentle. [Century Dictionary, 1897]
