Just because a Twitter said it's over doesn't mean it's over. Prediction markets still think there's a ~1/5 chance of it being legit.

This is basically the epitome of postmodernism these people love dunking on. There's no external truth, only utterances. When prediction markets have hegemony, that will be Truth.
