That's one way of looking at it. Another is that it doesn't know what it 
is talking about, which makes the offering useless. When  we throw in 
your own ignorance, which let you post version of the text that had lost 
the square root symbol, it becomes actively misleading.

Donald Trump and Zero Hedge are making the world a more dangerous place 
by serving up the kind of plausible nonsense that you find attractive, 
and we need to find a way of neutralising their destructive 
contributions. Educating twits like you to the point where you could do 
critical thinking would be a useful step in the right direction, but 
just shutting you up would help.
