Which is a far more convincing argument when someone can point to a well-documented set of predictions, than when they claim "I'm right a lot" and try to get you to fall for an association fallacy.

I guess I don't follow them for their "predictions", I follow them because they have interesting things to say.

I don't agree with everything I hear on NPR. I don't agree with everything I hear in the alt-right twittersphere.

But the two do seem to pair nicely in terms of getting a feel of the current national pulse.
