    Dear enemies,The Black Swan is now the most influential (that is, discussed/mentioned) 21st C book. While almost all books have a half-life between 2 and 6 months, it does not appear to have a half-life. #Lindy [Same with other 4 books in the Incerto. Graph is US only]

    DHIMMITUDE as a fake harbara concept. From the Lydian Stone (@TarekMitri, @karimbitar, @riachi_jean). Hasbara: they lie, they lie and they lie even more.

    Most authors who write bad reviews construct their arguments first, then cherry-pick details from the book to fit them.
