1. I do not blame #Leavers for believing the lies that were given to them. I do not blame them for believing the years of Right wing propaganda. The originators of those lies, they are the enemy and they want something that is bad for everyone, Remainers and Leaver alike.
2. The originators of those lies want power and the creation of those lies are in themselves proof of guilt. For if #brexit really was best for the country the lies would not be needed, nor would the trolls, nor the illegal funding and methodology, abuse, stalking voters.
3. And now we know the true agenda of those #brextremists, it lies in their doctrine that spurned them to initiate #brexit. It is about control, it's about them having control, it's about them and their corporate paymasters having control. Own everything, own everyone...
4. So they want to install Far Right regimes because they are for unfettered capitalism that allows corporations to do what they want, buy what they want, money decides in their free market neo liberal religion, an utterly blonkered and callous faith...
5. And of course the Far Right believes people should be free to curtail the freedom of others, with abuse and threats, religious intolerance, bigotry and hate which ultimately leads to violence and war. And that is who is behind the rise of the Right and #brexit ...
6. Why? Because they want authoritarian Far Right neo-feudal rule. They don't want to be fettered by societal evolution and enlightenment, by human rights, workers rights and empathy in society for others. What they want is power, money and yes, control... #peoplesvote #FBPE
7. And one other thing, they want me to hate my fellow citizens & make me believe they are less than they are but we together are better than that & our resistance is to continue to keep our eyes focused on the enemy, not on those that believed the enemy's lies. #unity #strength

It is difficult to explain in tweets but there is a clear path to fascism linked to the path of capitalism. And what we are seeing on the streets is evidence of that. It is to do with the scale of business, the increased amount of power in corporate hands vs Nation State. 1/
Put it this way if small companies complain about regulations that stop them exploiting customers the regs won't change, but if a huge multinational with revenue of a small country complains they can change regs, change policy, change gov 2/
And in the last 30 yrs we have seen an unprecedented increase in scale of business and size of company. We can relate this to the Big Bang in the financial markets, allowing the use of complex trading instruments to support extraordinary M&A activity creating corporate giants 3/

If government stops serving the interests of the people, it is no longer a government. It becomes in fact an agent of the country's downfall, and that is exactly what this government is. Far from standing for the country, they are surrendering it to foreign power. #FBPE
... when one says "foreign power" of course many will imagine it is a country, however it is not a country at all, it is a supra-national entity, a network of business interests that seek to control the resources and the people of the planet. It's not a country, it's an empire
And when one mentions "empire" immediately some people will consider it conspiracy, because they don't see it as one, they don't see one "evil" leader, they don't see soldiers, they don't see the word "empire", they don't see it issuing decrees and waging wars...

#brexit is a belief, a religion. There's no evidence to support it. It is just a blinkered faith. They believe what they want to believe. Their leaders are preachers, not politicians, & their reaction to doubting them is that of nothing less than a religious fundamentalist #FBPE
2. As such many will quite literally do this for some kind of reward in the next life or for a "cause" for their fellow followers. And when you read the words of some of their protagonists that is exactly what one sees.
3. And we must ask how it is possible so many have been converted to this religious extremism. In general it will the same as elsewhere, hardship, poverty, hate, a conditioned mind that is made to believe a specific group is the cause of their troubles.

Wall shutdown showdown’s next act: Trump goes to southern border Thursday “to meet with those on the frontlines of the national security and humanitarian crisis.” He’s not negotiating a deal. He’s putting on shows to keep his propaganda on TV/media. Maybe he’ll bring a caravan😒
Trump to visit southern border after telling aides on Sunday he wanted them to come up with a resolution to the shutdown fight that would reopen the government—without him appearing to have capitulated to Democrats. via @WSJ wsj.com/articles/trump…
TV networks agreeing to air Trump's far-right wall propaganda address as if a real national security emergency is pretty despicable. An ominous sign that they haven't learned much about how propagandists use media to elevate bullshit in ways that undermine our country & the press

We’re going to spend the next weeks debating whether inflammatory rhetoric causes violence, what counts as inflammatory, whether political ideologies premised on white male grievances and resentment of minoirites beget violence. It’s worth remembering that hate is an ecosystem.
That is, it’s not a simple A to B of “someone powerful says something hateful and then his followers pick up guns.” Rather, it’s a more complex interconnected system. There are people who are prone to violence, and their views span many political ideologies.
Whether they feel empowered, emboldened, or inflamed to act out isn’t a pre-set inevitability. Yes, sometimes you get a single unstable person who acts. But what we’re seeing now are a bunch of people all acting out of the same general worldview - right-wing white nationalism.

1. The big news is that three pipe bombs were mailed to a trio of high-profile Democrats. An explosive was found Monday in the mailbox of George Soros. One each was sent Wednesday to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. All were intercepted. In each case, bomb parts were similar.
2. It’s not yet known who mailed the bombs, or why. That’s probably where this story will end. It shouldn’t. Whoever sent these bombs is almost certainly not a liberal or a Democrat or even a leftist. It’s probably not a run-of-the mill Republican.
3. It’s not anyone with anything to lose by trying to commit the crime of domestic terrorism.

The Suffocation of Democracy

By: Christopher R. Browning

1/
As a historian specializing in the #Holocaust, #Nazi Germany, and #Europe in the era of the world wars, I have been repeatedly asked about the degree to which the current situation in the United States resembles the interwar period and the rise of #fascism in Europe.
2/
I would note several troubling similarities and one important but equally troubling difference.

In the 1920s, the US pursued #isolationism in foreign #policy and rejected participation in international organizations like the League of Nations.

Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15

1) Here is an op-ed attacking free speech, but it has some good content and I think we should talk about it. bigleaguepolitics.com/media-matters-…
2) The op ed is embedded in an analysis by @bigleaguepol but if you want to see just the video go here:
3) The title of this video op-ed is: “How The Far-Right Is Dividing Americans With Social Media.”

It is published by “Now This” and features Melissa Ryan, “Editor, Ctrl-Alt-Delete” and a “Visiting Fellow, Media Matters.”
