  Miss

  Miss disinformation

  Miss
  Miss
  Miss disinformation

  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Miss disinformation
  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Social credit score on the up up up
  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Ima freeze your bank account
  Good luck

  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Social credit score on the up up up
  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Ima freeze your bank account
  Good luck

  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Social credit score on the up up up
  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Ima freeze your bank account
  Good luck

  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Social credit score on the up up up
  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Ima freeze your bank account
  Good luck

  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Social credit score on the up up up

  If you think this is the end
  Then it's really the beginning
  Yeah, what's up is down, and down is up
  And all of it is leading
  To the snake, snake, snake
  To really start eating
  Its own tail
  Just a tall tale
  One that's worth reading, I think

  Oh, weaponized internet
  Can't fight it
  Ima freeze your bank account
  Good luck

Track twenty-five on [*KŌAN*](/albums/koan/), **LP-only** fourth movement, penultimate before [*to everyone who had a good pandemic*](/songs/to-everyone-who-had-a-good-pandemic/) (LP closer). Not on the KŌAN A/B/C chapters. Luke solo.

The title is a triple pun: **Miss** (pageant address), **miss** (fail to hit truth), and Miss Disinformation as a character, beauty queen of bad info. The hook loops *oh, weaponized internet / can't fight it*, then escalates from naming her to listing consequences: *social credit score on the up up up*, *ima freeze your bank account / good luck*. Social-credit anxiety and debanking turned into a chant you can't argue with.

The bridge is the koan turn: *what's up is down, and down is up*, all of it leading to the snake eating its own tail, *just a tall tale / one that's worth reading, I think*. An ouroboros, disinformation as a self-consuming story, with *worth reading* winking at you listening anyway. Same thread as [*All My Friends Live on the Internet*](/songs/all-my-friends-live-on-the-internet/) and [*High Society*](/songs/high-society/), but here weaponized and systemic. Pairs with [*Get the Funk Out of My Head*](/songs/get-the-funk-out-of-my-head/) (news stuck on loop) and [*Think About It*](/songs/think-about-it/) on epistemic dread. Leads from [*I See the Moment*](/songs/i-see-the-moment/) on *Big Hug* ([*A Good Life*](/songs/a-good-life/) collapse, how to believe again).
