How Fake Reality Works
 

The model system for fake reality is the claim that renewable energy, as solar and wind, is on par with coal. On par could mean anything, but looking at the numbers shows this: The claims approximately line up on the cost of purchasing a windmill for the same price as building a coal plant at the same wattage. Being ignored is that 150 truckloads of concrete are needed beneath the windmill, the rated wattage of a windmill is the maximum, while the average produced is 20% of the maximum, and the transmission lines cost as much as everything else for windmills, because they need to be located far from the consumers, while coal is transported to the edge of cities.

So a more realistic evaluation is to look at the end result. At 3-5% renewables, as in California, electricity costs 18¢ pkwh, while basic coal (without tacked on expenses to compensate for renewables) is 4¢ pkwh. In Germany and England, it's about 50¢ pkwh for 15% renewables as solar and wind. It means renewables cost about ten times as much as coal power for the 15% that cannot be exceeded. The on par claim is an insult to human honesty.

So the purpose here is to explain how and why that happens. Two elements of the problem connect at the point of mongering power. One element is that fake reality is needed to monger power. So incompetent power mongers latch onto fake reality to enhance their power, and they embellish the fakery each time they touch it.

Then there are the higher level power mongers who conspire against rationality by instigating the fakery. Conspiracies form at higher levels of mongering power. The conspirators feed fake reality to lower level power mongers who create the public face for the fake reality, which includes unscrupulous journalists and organization workers.

The net result is that frauds have instigators, exploiters and dupes promoting them. Frauds like to brainwash kids before they know what is going on. Then there is a group of persons who believe in the frauds. Over time, a lot of persons couldn't imagine any other reality than the frauds which they have been inundated with continuously.

Another example is hand sanitizers and disinfectants. Disinfectants are totally worthless for the general public. If you can disinfect something, it's not a problem. What are the germs going to do? Jump off the surface and into someone's mouth? Once germs are dried on a surface, they are almost harmless, because they usually won't come off easily enough to do anything. The exception might be a large glob which is not well attached. The loose germs can be removed with a damp cotton cloth easier than they can be killed.

It's extremely difficult to kill bacteria. Trying to do so is more harmful to the humans than the bacteria. So you remove germs; you don't try to kill them. Bleach should never enter a household, because the fumes are harmful to lungs. Halides react by substitution. That means the cell surfaces will have chlorine attached to them, which will appear as foreign matter to the immune system and create immunological reactions. Bleach doesn't usually kill bacteria in the trivial way that it is usually used, because it has to chew through cell walls, which is a slow process. Viruses are easier to kill, but they are not harmful on surfaces.

Viruses are not designed for spreading on surfaces (beyond the pox variants); they are designed for spreading through air and liquids. Once viruses stick to a surface, they are gone. First of all, the viruses will be damaged by drying; they have to stay wet to keep the proteins from denaturing. Then sticking will break off surface proteins. Getting viruses back off of surfaces will greatly reduce their numbers, while it takes several hundred or thousands of virus particles to start an infection, because getting through the defensive barriers is extremely difficult.

But there are incompetents, fakes and conspirators who try to create the impression that viruses must be removed from surfaces. Studies are endless for viruses on surfaces. There has never been a one that shows infection can result from viruses on surfaces. But the nature of the studies will be described in a muddled manner leaving it to nonscientists to misinterpret the results, as if viruses could infect from surfaces.

Viruses have to stay hydrated, but different ones tolerate the drying process better than others. Flu viruses have a lot of lipid and crowding on their surfaces which slows the drying process; so they can hang in the air (as aerosols) for several minutes before becoming ineffective. Corona viruses have simpler surfaces with exposed proteins, so they are rapidly denatured and become ineffective while exposed to the air. Exactly how fast denaturing occurs for Corona viruses in the air is being studied and argued.

In all of these arguments, frauds will try to mislead the public as a method of mongering power. Not only does power require fraud, since all truth exposes incompetence and corruption, but power mongers are jealous of rational persons and do everything they can to subvert rationality. So there are a lot of frauds in science who subvert the information that the public gets. As scientists, they usually make sure they are technically correct in spewing nonsense which nonscientists can misinterpret and embellish. The outright falsehoods are usually produced by the nonscientists.
