President Obama: I challenge you to a $1M debate on COVID-19 misinformation
President Obama, I'm willing to bet $1M that you (and your friends in the White House and CDC) are the misinformation spreaders and not me and my friends. Will you accept? Or do you agree I'm right?
Executive Summary
President Obama correctly observed that COVID-19 misinformation is causing people to die. It’s a serious problem and we fully agree. We just disagree on who is spreading the misinformation.
However, just pointing out the problem won’t solve it.
If President Obama wants to actually do something meaningful to solve the issue, all he has to do is accept my very reasonable debate offer.
I’m happy to negotiate mutually agreeable terms on the debate and the incentive. If the monetary incentive is too low, we can raise it. If it is too high, we can lower it. We are flexible. But hopefully the incentive should be to save innocent lives. We do not need a monetary incentive to accept the debate.
My friends and I are the world’s biggest misinformation spreaders, so this is a unique opportunity for President Obama to “walk the talk” and solve one of the biggest problems of the pandemic and save millions of lives worldwide with a four hour investment of his time (or even less if he wants subject matter experts to defend his position).
