Is Ruth Bader Ginsburg alive?












1















Right wing sources on social media have been abuzz with rumors that Ginsburg has died. The conspiracy theory is that Democrats are hiding her death to avoid another Trump pick on the Supreme Court. There's even a hashtag on Twitter for this conspiracy theory, #WheresRuth.



Yesterday The Washington Post ran a story claiming Ginsburg had attended a performance celebrating her. However, the paper featured no hard evidence that she was there and far-right sources claimed the story was fabricated.



While I strongly believe that this is another Pizzagate- or Q-esque invention, is there any hard evidence that Ginsburg is still alive?

    It's an implausible theory. In order for a coverup to have a salutary effect, it needs to be maintained long enough. In this case, the hypothetical coverup would have to last until the Senate majority changes, about two years from now at minimum.

    @elliotsvensson It would also require the willing participation of the conservative wing of the court, which seems... unlikely.

In this article by the well-respected Associated Press, we read of a concert that Justice Ginsburg attended Monday night (Feb 5, 2019), her first public appearance since surgery in New York on December 21, 2018.




The justice sat in the back of the darkened auditorium at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. The National Constitution Center, which sponsored the concert, did not permit photography.




Justice Ginsburg's son James Ginsburg said that "his mother is walking a mile a day and meeting with her personal trainer twice a week."

    I must say — as facially ludicrous as sensible people know the idea that a Supreme Court justice is dead but some conspiracy is suppressing the truth to be — that article is far from dispositive. Someone, unnamed, claims to have seen the Justice in a darkened room where photography was forbidden. If there was a report that Elvis had been spotted under those circumstances, you wouldn't even bother to investigate.

    What does this answer add above the evidence alluded to in the question, which the op already found insufficient?
