you really need to choose whether it is a serious piece of writing worthy of critical engagement or some guy's medium article that can be treated as just what bucky reckons and not seriously engaged with, because it can't be both

The royal commission is a great read, it's not as long and daunting as the length seems given much of it is appendices and references. The commissioner writes quite accessibly and is suitably scathing while also fair

[pacing back and forth in front of my computer, hissing and muttering, arms waving spasmodically, flecks of saliva visible at the edges of my mouth, now and then accidentally kicking over a piss bottle] Oh, they'll read the royal commission. They'll read the royal commission. Oh, the commissioner's writing is so clear! "Such clear writing, your majesty! It didn't seem long at all! Oh, such good information!" What about Q, you think that poo poo's not important? Oh, no, democracy's not important! Nobody else can see. Nobody else can see. We'll they'll see, all right. They'll see. I'm the only one who can put the pieces together. They'll loving see. Oh, the royal commission! loving trivial poo poo. You want evidence? You want evidence???

Again to the thread sorry, please skip. Feel free to report this too. Idgaf about arguing qanon, I'm trying to make Bucky's article inflict less psychic damage. Bucky Fullminster posted:awesome, very kind, thank you. This is relevant to the illuminati/French rev/books, but the current order they are introduced and talked about does not establish what actually happened versus what the books say happened. In particular, one can look at the paraphrased part that says "so when heads started to roll across the plaza, the illuminati were the prefect scape goat", and think that this is actually what happened at the time, what was actually believed at the time. It hasn't been established that this is the point of view of the books, because the books haven't been introduced to the article yet. A reader who doesn't know the FR, and is taking you at face value that this is a compete history, which you've said that this is, and you've talked about the illuminati, Bavaria, the FR in a chronological way going from earliest to latest without going backwards, they could believe that's what was actually believed at the time it was happening. It's not clear that the statement is the POV of a book written later. E: I just went back to the article and noticed this has changed but I have written a lot at this point. quote:I mean, none of that is really in dispute. There is plenty of literature that does address the psychology of conspiracy theories, much of which is actually cited, and this is a pretty fair distillation of all of them. You want me to explain the differences in what a brain had to deal with 100 years ago, or 1,000 years ago, or 10,000 years ago, compared to now? This is opinion. I think not talking about the psychology of conspiracy, early in the article, weakens the article. The article relies on the reader not just on accepting that people can fall for conspiracy, which is an easy bar these days, but it also relies on the reader accepting that it can happen to average people, that average people have buttons and levers that can be exploited, and the reader trusting that you know a lot about that so you're worth listening to. I personally think that referring to simplified generalisations about psychology, weakens the article more than a compete absence would. Again, opinion, but imo either talk about it early and completely to demonstrate your knowledge, or don't try to talk about it - directly cite some expert's opinion that says the same thing as you need it. quote:I guess you can call it pop, sure, cos it's some guy's medium article, maybe that's kind of the point. That feedback was really good. My feedback isn't aimed at some guys medium article, because I would only read some guys medium article if my life depended on it, I'm saying what puts me off and what I think would help. quote:Did it have the 15 sections when you read it? Cos you're right, but it has sections now, which hopefully makes it more digestible. And surely it's a well-illustrated wall of text at least. Yes it had parts, but parts doesn't mean accessible or easy to read. Currently, it's like saying the white pages are a digestible read because they group by the initial letter of the surname. Breaking up into parts is more accessible than not, but parts alone doesn't mean it's actually accessible. Imo, you still need a table of contents and to condense your parts into sub articles. You want to make it as easy as possible for people to read your articles. Picture breaks are a small reprieve from text, they aren't clearly delineated jumping off/jumping on points where a reader knows they can safely take a break, that if they take a break now, you're not just about to introduce something that relies on the part(s) immediately before it still being fresh in their mind. quote:Anyway appreciate the feedback and glad to know there's no actual errors found. My dude, us not finding errors isn't an endorsement. I can't prove/disprove flat earth off my head, despite the absurdity, but I can proof read an article written about it.
