    Stephen Colbert on Truthiness vs. Truth



    AMAZINGLY relevant to scambusting. Most believers have truthiness, not truth.

    And the function of fraudsters and MLM recruiters (is there really a difference) is to take perfectly good messages, bastardize them, put them out of context, then present them to their victims/potential recruits as the "truth" when, in fact, they're "truthiness"
    The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing
