I could be totally wrong, but I think that peeps like Fitts and Webb are still stuck in some kind of old paradigm in their thinking. If you ask me, I think they're (and many others) missing the potential fact, as the C's have indicated, that there has been change the program by a decision made on the ultimate 'Quorum level', and thus the playing field is, at least temporarily, leveled to be more fair.
They are like the 'click-baiting, black pilling, echo chamber' people? They're just as annoying (in my opinion) as the 'Trump can do no wrong, and he's coming to save us all', crowd. One side are a bunch of overly critical, negative doomsayers and the other is completely oblivious to any fault Trump has, and permissive of all and every behaviour coming out of the Administration.
It's starting to annoy me because the 'doomsayer' people keep saying they are trying to 'wake us up' from some type of reverse Trump Derangement Syndrome? Such hubirs! Neither side sees subtleties and both will be open to manipulation. At the moment, I seem to be having to listen a lot to the 'alternative type' people parroting the 'doomers' and telling people that the Trump Administration is all going to go to shit and if anyone thinks anything good is going to come out of it, then they are wrong.
And in the middle of all this, is Israel. I must say, the 'doomers' seem to have a better handle on that, being more likely to see things as they are, and less likely to go into contortions and do backflips to avoid looking at some of Israel's most heinous behaviour.
The 'Israel can do no wrong crowd' seems to echo the sentiments of Nazi Germany. You know: 1. God's chosen people, 2. We are never in the wrong, and 3. We have an absolute right to do whatever we want, and 4. You can't stop us!
Just when I thought the World was waking up to reality, it seems to be going nuts again using tropes, ignorance and bias.

At least that's what I'm finding 'out there'.
