They didn't tell you all the facts.
Take the facts about Gaza. In a series of wars and blockades, Israel's killed thousands of Gazas and, through disease and lower standards of livings, caused thousands more to die prematurely. It's genocide.
What's missing? Reproduction and context.
During this genocide, the population of Gaza's soared.
"In 2012 X% of bee hives died off." Meh. It's a problem, to be sure--all those prematurely active bees wandering out, weakened by sequential one-food diets, stress from being moved, pesticides, and parasites. (Of those, of course, we have to choose one. We can't have more than one cause for an effect. It's rhetorically impossible, it would appear. After all, it's not "causes and effect."
But in saying the number that died off there's no mention of the number of new, baby hives that were produced. That omission of information, the absence of which should be butt-obvious, matters. That the butt-obvious absence was studiously ignored goes to either motivation or to cognitive ability. Which is better?
