It is the behavior of institutions like NYT itself that created scientifically ludicrous "vibe" that investments in the actual root causes of crime (like other countries with lower crime) rather than more incarceration is "soft on crime." I explain more: equalityalec.substack.com/p/…

Everyone on social media should know about the Illusory Truth Effect
If you see something repeated enough times, it seems more true. Multiple studies show that it works on 85% of people. Worse, it still happens even if the information isn't plausible & even if you know better.
