On the "Crowd Size Controversy": Let them die on this hill
If the incoming administration wants to fight this battle, let them. Make them expose themselves for the liars and toadies they are.
Make them show their lack of credibility, their willingness to lie about the most trivial, easily disproved things. Let them de-legitimize themselves publicly and emphatically. Let them lie to everyone over trivialities, and expose them ruthlessly. Expose their lack of contact with reality for all the world to see, literally.
The sooner their mendacity and incompetence is brought fully into the light for all to see, the better we all are.
If they want to attempt to bully the press into submission, the rejection HAS to be swift and emphatic. If they are permitted to cow the press into only parroting the official dogma, then we are all lost.
The Voltaire quote paraphrased as "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities." is the center of this. We must stop all attempts to begin a journey down a slippery slope. We must not stand for this.
"Alternative Facts" are Lies. No more, no less. And they have to called out as such immediately and forcefully.
Don't let them start to gaslight us. We know the truth, and they are not speaking it.
They must be called out, they must be ridiculed, they must be mocked ruthlessly and without end.
This is The United States of America, not some mind controlled cult of personality built around a sociopathic narcissist to serve only his ends and whims.
Our strength come from US, all together, not from one self-absorbed individual.
Let their credibility and reputation die on this hill. Let them be exposed as what they are for all the world to see.
We do not have to turn back from a bad road that we did not start down.
