CREDIBILITY ACCURACY KEEPER

We are losing the ability to understand the significance of credibility.

  • We defend people when they are wrong.
  • We support people because “they are on our side.”

And this will lead to a future where truth and accuracy no longer matter.

Refusing to acknowledge inaccurate factual assertions damages us all — it is not what we do when we truly care. We don’t allow our children to assert false information. We must show the same respect for our leaders.

What is CREDACK

CREDACK is a solution to a growing concern. It is where we all can find common ground. CREDACK suggests we can begin by acknowledging the truth.   We are entitled to our own opinions, conclusions, and arguments, but we are not entitled to our own truth.  The truth is where we can come together as a nation of free people.

 CREDACK Scores

CREDACK Scores are an objective measure of credibility.  This is not about demonstrating that someone is a liar.  This is not about owning anyone.  This is not about driving people apart.  The CREDACK MISSION is to bring us all together by acknowledging the truth and accuracy.  Opinions, arguments, debates will be checked at the door.  The  only considerations here are what is true and what is false.

Begin at 100

Everyone starts with a perfect CREDACK Score, which is 100.  CREDACK will give everyone the benefit of the doubt, which is good practice in life too.   Trust, Verify, and Remember.  Don’t be naive.  Don’t be cynical. Don’t be judgmental.  Be aware and understanding.  CREDACK will show you have to build a credibility profile and how to use it constructively to find common ground.

CREDACK Profiles:  Where the Credibility assessments will begin.  Anyone who presents information to the public is fair game.

Separating opinions from facts is the first step to critical thinking. Disagreeing on the former is healthy. Disagreeing on the latter is a step away from freedom.

Credack Mission Statement

CREDACK SCORES – RULES AND REQUIREMENTS

Rule 1

Identify the facts.   Arguments, opinions, conclusions, preferences, probabilities, belief, intent, will not be considered.  CREDACK is a tool to assess objective reality.  A fact cannot be debated.  The objective is to return to a place where all people can agree on the facts, so that the arguments that come after are presented in good faith.

Rule 2

All Credibility Assessments shall be based upon available information that can be verified.  The statements assessed shall be linked and any evidence used to make a credibility determination shall also be based upon information that can be linked and verified.  This is not a place for debate.  It is a place for objective reality.

Rule 3

No targeting. CREDACK is not about painting anyone with a scarlet letter. Nobody will be called a liar. Name-calling. insults, and divisive classifications are not tolerated. The objective is to bring people together through our shared reality. CREDACK is where that reality is documented through verified and objective information. Arguing with the truth is the most challenging and rewarding way to argue.

Abraham-Lincoln-Quote

“I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.” —Abraham Lincoln, former U.S. president
