Stay persistent everyone. Our parents, grandparents and ancestors went through far worse to save their democracies. I'm trying to follow back & catching up. I'm both on Twitter and Bsky, same name. Advice: Keep both accounts so no one can steal your handle

However my father had a particular expertise, as a firsthand witness regarding Mussolini and Hitler. Dad was a WWII fighter pilot, captured, imprisoned in Italy under Mussolini, and later imprisoned in Germany in Hitler's Stalag Luft III prison for Allied Officers.

Repetition is as important as the creation of the original lie, when it comes to propaganda tactics.

They must do something though. The damage Oligarch media owners will do to society will be devastating. Not only will children be victimized. Oligarchs goals are to ensure just enough children, teens and adults will be radicalized, brainwashed, and turned into Brownshirt voters.

What a perfect reply to the UCP! 😂 (In my own reply to them I was a bit more blunt: "Public tax dollars must ONLY go to PUBLIC schools!"

My bags are packed, I'm ready to go. Not yet tho! I'm still fighting that petrostate frathouse. I'd been exposing them for decades. If Albertans can't figure out that they've been duped for decades then we'll end up as a failing province because of all those loud-mouthed petro-populists like Binnion

It happened to me when I bought a new phone, Google or X logged me in as a new account (?!) Not this one, an entirely new one. So I put the new one on a private setting (hoping to figure out later how to safely delete it). And I noticed my original was logged in. And all I had to do was tap my icon.

Thanks for your tenacity. I'm constantly trying to make people more aware of all those underhanded tactics big oil uses like their sincere networking groups such as CAPP, Atlas Network think tanks, Taxpayers, and countless other anti-science and election interference activists.

They did it because it was controversial. It was the wrong thing to do, but Sheldon Adelson and his wife wanted it done. So he donated $$ to Trump (and no doubt why Harper collaborated with him in earlier meetings). The move was always avoided because it would only lead to instability. Which it did.

Wealthy conservative families (like Oz's family) hire Cambridge Analytica to use Mind Wars to get their Conman elected. The conmen (Trump, Ford, Smith) then loot public taxes to pay Cambridge Analytica think tanks, and funnel payoffs to any far right who had assisted them with election interference.

I also keep thinking of that. If Henry Ford hadn't amplified the big lie, how different things might be. A lesson for everyone, the questions every person should constantly ask themselves are who's trying to fool me. And who has the means to deliver elaborate false smears of individuals and groups.

Great thread on the details of FIPA, a secret 'deal' that Conservatives signed with China, in Russia, in 2012 which most Canadians have no idea about. #FIPA disadvantages Canada, while creating a huge advantage for China, and locked it in for 31 years.

And on our side, we need to take a page from down south By election time, ~15% of undecideds living in echo silos, will fall for fictional news about the economy, and fictional smears of libs. To resist that, we can all do our part to tell FRAN the truth (Friends Relatives Acquaintances Neighbours)

Here's what all good people should do. Unite, against the coming blitz by strongmen. History teaches us how we got here, and how to fight back. Keep updated, learn how to resist against intolerant conmen & their ignorant base voters Be tough but kind, calm & unafraid, learn, unite and stay informed
Historians can teach us a lot about how we got to this point, and how to fight back. We all need to stay on social media, to keep updated, and continue learning how to resist against intolerant conservatives and their cult-like base.

Sadly, Susan didn't take into account voter suppression and disinfo, strategies that make some voters stop voting (apathy) and others being disinformed (many are taught falsehoods about Blacks) The majority of Americans are good. It's her conservative friends who are racists not an actual "majority"
A clip from the above article in which Susan makes a false claim about the majority of Americans.

Plus Reagan's strategists did a host of other elaborate and orchestrated dirty tricks that year, at times with foreign help. One example was the new, elaborate, insincere weaponization of abortion. Another example was the theft of Carter's debate notes.

When I first researched Poilievre's odd little wedding, in Portugal, which Ana tried blogging about to pretend she'd planned it, I was reminded of Portugal's connections to Devin Nunes, Russia, and the fact 83% of Portuguese are Catholic.

One of those screenshots is disinformation by Norman Spector. My guess is he's compromised, but also he's a blatant, radicalized conservative operative. He blocked me. And I just noticed some new info about him which confirms my long held suspicions about him.

That's so sad. Reminds me of 25 years ago a 200 year old home of Col Thomas Talbot was still standing (at Port Talbot near Port Stanley) on shorefront overlooking Lake Erie. Someone bought and tore it down before the historical society could stop them from doing it. www.wikitree.com/wiki/Talbot-...
