This is my grade 11 spoken word on “The spread of misinformation and disinformation online.”
This is the script.
How many people can be mislead through the use of technology?
How severe is the misinformation online?
Let’s find out.
Imagine a world where 9% of the Canadian population doesn’t believe in global warming.
Imagine a world where 51% of the United States population is sceptical in the big bang theory.
Imagine a world, where 39% of the Canadian population is sceptical in the theory of evolution.
Wonder why these numbers sound so specific?
Well, that’s because you don’t have to imagine a world like t9his.
This is the world we live in.
Things taught to us in 7th grade with mountains of evidence, aren’t believed in by 39 or 51% of the population. How can this be?
Who are the perpetrators of this sin?
Stephen Meyers is guilty of this offense.
How bad could he possibly be I hear you asking?
I mean he has a PhD in science!
Associated with Prager U
(Yep that’s 3 million.)
Leading the discovery institute of science.
Yet he falls for every bias
Strawman
Non sequitur
Declinism
Conjunction fallacy
He denies evolution.
He denies the big bang.
Why? Money.
They take money from rich Christians, and disinform people about science to try their best to fulfil the wishes of their investors.
When Stephen comes under criticism he hides behind his PhD.
The existence of the discovery institute of “science”, is to promote religion through any means
even if it’s flat out lying and deceiving people by defamation of scientists and science.
Let that sink in
Even Nobel prize winners are some of his victims. AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BELIEVE AND FOLLOW HIS ORGANIZATIONS!
Now with Kent Hovind.
While he may not be as influential.
He is much more immoral.
Domestic abuse,
Tax evasion.
Oh did you miss that?
…
(Yes, he just said evolution is the most dangerous religion in the world.)
He has a masters degree from a university.
A diploma mill in the middle of the desert.
People buy his stories not knowing he does it as an advertisement for his amusement park.
Selling lies, going against science, against the government.
These are the two worst people that exist, obviously there are more. However, these two abuse technology and media in one of the worst ways possible.
Next time you go online. Make sure you aren’t following a charlatan.
