Lies
Spreading disinformation and propaganda is worse that wrong and shameful and undermining of public health.
It is Evil.
We know, from thousands of years of experience, that lying is evil. Is not Satan the "Father of Lies"?
Which reminds me—
“It is easy - terribly easy - to shake a man's faith in himself. To take advantage of that to break a man's spirit is devil's work.”
—George Bernard Shaw
Howard Kranz - G. B. Shaw reference

Facebook suspension follow-up
Rules are rules. I don't believe in gaming the system — it is beneath my dignity as a poet and champion of the Enlightenment.
Sure, I would like people to admire my work. I am vain that way.
But I try to keep my vanity in check, because it eats up precious time, contributing nothing to my work.

Caviar by Catapult
In the age of pandemics, do you find it difficult to get good caviar without catching Covid from the lower classes?
Caviar by Catapult is on the way!
We fly top-quality sturgeon caviar direct by jet from the depths of Lake Baikal to the Amazon delivery depot nearest you.
Then we load the caviar in our patented Super Catapult and fling it safely to your house, untouched by the lower classes.
