I agree with the gaslighting part, but don’t necessarily think it was “the government”.
I think it was billionaire/adversaries funded groups, probably Elon in part, definitely Russia/China.
Elon understood Twitter/SM very early on. I remember reading somewhere how Tesla didn’t spend a dime on (traditional) marketing the first few years, it was pure social media manipulation / dark patterns.
“The point of propaganda is not to make you believe something in particular, is to make you not believe anything.”
I really hope Obama is playing some “keep your enemies closer” thing, but I am not holding my breath.
I will be surprised if it doesn’t end in the hands of Ellison, Musk or one of their proxies.
Fair point - the Stephen Miller crowd is on high gear dismantling shit; frankly I will be consoled if there continues to be an alternation of power - this doesn’t negate the immense pain some will suffer, but rules can be re-written.
I am so disappointed there doesn’t seem to be a clear voice of resistance from our elected leaders. Best we get seems to still be Bernie and Warren, and maybe some AOC. I think the context will be good for an emerging leader soon.
Once again, it appears we will have to rely on their sheer incompetence. 🤦♂️
Can’t believe they didn’t mention Yarvin as inspiration for these shitheads.
I’m just waiting for the Free Palestine folks to show us the way. I am ready to see some real radical action, amirite?
I am not saying we should, but if apparently it needs to be done, we should rethink categories and classes more broadly, not in “boys” or “girls” terms.
Idk - I kinda think that if any of this shit mattered, what WaPo or other legacy media say, Trump wouldn’t have won.
FWIW - IMO all athletes should be subject to controls, and meet certain testosterone levels depending on their class, not just trans.
Also with the last jobs numbers, the Fed ain’t lowering those rates anytime soon, so they sell.
I surely wish someone in the opposition showed up on Fox and other similar propaganda machines and said pretty much this, like it is. Eventually some will see it, and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. This needs to be hammered starting right now, with the LA fires.
Mayor Pete could totally do it and get thru to some.

Well, the good news is that the topic likely won’t be an issue anymore in 2028 for disrupting non-GOP candidates
