The most perverse part of this whole thing is that people cant/wont pay appropriately for truth. Otherwise it would be as simple as setting up a newspaper that is fully paid for by people - no ad money, no one pulling your strings.

Lies are only unmasked as lies months/years later where no one even remembers the whole arc of the conversation well enough, or sees the actors that spread lies to think "huh if we all had known the truth at the outset, none of this shit would have happened".

Its the same problem with online education - you can put up courses but there are many more courses than motivated learners, even fewer who would pay for it except to signal worth to employers.

Do you have any ideas on how to make truth even slightly profitable?
