ON SOME LEVEL everyone in the organization knows THIS DOESN'T WORK.
They did it a hundred times. Some of them did it a thousand times. It never worked.
They changed their methods without ever admitting that the old methods were wrong, and without setting out what their hopes and expectations were for why the new methods might be better.
And thus the cycle could continue: with the refusal to admit that the new methods weren't working, either.
Exactly the same pattern with X.R. in England.
For some mysterious reason DxE stopped running out into the middle of the field in the middle of a football game: they never admit why. They're spending a million dollars a year ON NOTHING, while promoting what could fairly be called the stupidest philosophy in the history of political science. And it's a million dollars they "earned" with stupid, fame-whoring stunts like running out into the middle of a stadium.
There never was any "social science research" to support ANY of their preferred methods —and there never was any recourse to social science research when switching from one method to the next.
It's a scam about a scam for the sake of a scam. And there are victims: unlike my philosophy, people's lives are ruined by putting Wayne's philosophy into practice.
