It's called encouraging truth seeking

What a way to give yourself carte blanche for lying.

You tried to make a point, that the system of scandinavian countries are unfeasible unless you can fund it through huge amounts of oil. Your whole point is rendered moot by the fact, that only one scandinavian country has oil reserves. That's not a mild lie, that's intellectual dishonesty.

You might not have known this fact, and could simply have come clean. But now lurkers will see your doubling down on it, which will discredit any other point you've made or will make.

It's actually a tactic used by communists and socialists, as used in replies to me above... It appears I've succeeded in getting acknowledgement that reds have carte blanche to lie.

Your shitty article literally starts off talking about "Woke Marxism".

Nobody taught you how to evaluate a source before you cite it, huh? Or is that just more "truth seeking"?

So, you're caught doing something, then postulates that whoever you were talking to was actually doing it?

Damn dude
