    You should absolutely not apologize, I do encourage others to do plenty of self-crit and re-education to better understand the situation as well as try and see where there may have been ideological biases and blind spots that got in the way of our (collectively) incorrect analyses.

      yeah, i try to check my biases, but the one thing i did learn from all this is that predicting things will be useless if you don't see all the cards on the table. there are hidden cards that we don't always see.

        Yeah a funny thing about Twitter libs is that they act like these predictions/opinions actually matter somehow. Or that if we were like actual decisionmakers with direct access to the actual information we'd still be making the same calls. Information isn't free and all that
