Here’s how that #LaMesa group “Defend East County” is talking tonight. They took issue with me saying in a radio interview that the group is full of violent white supremacists. Way to prove me wrong, you ding dongs ImageImageImageImage
This is in a @Facebook group. Do you think they’ll bother to act before these idiots kill someone or nah?
Not sure how I ended up uploading two files twice lol whatever
Argh! And it’s #Santee not #LaMesa. I got my wires crossed because a La Mesa council member (Kristine Alessio) has been an active participant in the group. Sorry, my bad
(La Mesa is very close to Santee geographically, all part of east San Diego county in southern California)

I've been thinking about doing this thread for a couple of days. This is mostly for myself so I can go back to it, I don't really expect anybody in this dying hellscape to see it, but I wanted to lay it out here for my own sake. Here's my last few years in news stories:
Here's me, just so incredibly naive in late 2016, saying that "fake news" wasn't the problem so much as lack of journalism. For the record, I still stand by this, but at the time I had no idea how much social media was in on the disinfo attacks:

After a terrible series of events and realizations, I came forward anonymously: theguardian.com/technology/201…

Hi everybody! A lot of you have been asking me what you can get me for my birthday, which is this weekend. Just kidding, literally no one asked me that but just in case you were considering getting me something please donate here instead entertainmentcommunity.org
Alternately, please consider joining a #WritersGuildofAmerica picket line and support the absolute shit out of this strike
I haven't really articulated this much but: Disinformation depends on altering our stories, true ones and fictional ones, to affect how we see ourselves and each other and make the world seem much more negative. There is a lot of power in culture, so of course jackholes want it

"The majority of the 1,000-plus book challenges analyzed by The Post were filed by just 11 people.
Each of these people brought 10 or more challenges against books in their school district; one man filed 92 challenges."

Anyway I hope WaPo's op-ed department remembers this the next time they decide to have some noxious bothesideser let rip

I meant it when I said climate warlords.
"As the planet warms, more calamities will strike the U.S. and, if the recent past is any indication, create new opportunities for militias and other extremist groups to mobilize and recruit...." Four-panel meme that says: ...
That's why all the insane border hardening and eugenics shit is happening now too. Borders are there to consolidate resources. Well, we're the resources they're trying to consolidate.
