“Widely believed falsehoods erode the cohesion and resilience of societies and can threaten the national security of the United States and its allies. Unfortunately, as a new administration arrives in Washington, elite opinion on what to do about America’s social-media swamps and general epistemic disorder resembles a national-security debate that includes only warmongers and appeasers. The United States needs to adopt a pragmatic deterrence strategy instead.” (02/11/25)
