I think the response to demonstrable lies is not appeals to authority and “peer-reviewed papers” (as if that carried any weight in the pursuit of truth), but instead speak truthfully in the face of deception.
The IMF represents an ungodly and evil system and we should stop pretending it cares about truth. They know they’re lying.
Invoke the name of Christ Jesus and do not play the demons’ game of sophistry. Demonic principalities will of course react with predictable lies and deception, call out the lies, and in Christ’s name and banish the demons.
This carries far more weight (infinitely so) than peer reviewed papers and rational arguments.

“pick up the cross they set down”
Profoundly true, and the only real solution to overcoming the generational damage from the baby boomers (themselves the rotten fruit of prior generations of secular lukewarm Christians)
And it is exactly what Christ is calling us to do, through Him,
“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
~ Matthew 11:28-30
Without government, who would be the worst at absolutely everything?
We talk nice to the machines not because they care, but because we care, because we’re better than the machines.
There's lots of insightful takes on the bank runs and bailouts, but many can't see the forest for the trees. Or rather, they can't see the dumpter-fire fire for the flames.
Nostr is oddly liberating. This will likely catch on even inside the panopticon of corporate and government jobs. For now though, it's fun to see a bunch of nerds talk about Bitcoin, Nostr, and a decentralized future.
