I’m retweeting this thread after the Trump/Biden debate yesterday.

I’m frustrated and truly worried about the US election.

Pundits cheered Biden for scoring points and gave him a double thumbs up. Saying Trump’s performance was subpar.

That’s not what I witnessed.
Trump was calm, calculated and speaking to his base. He wasn’t speaking to the Rest Of America, just the Q’Anon and religious nationalists. That’s all who really matters to him and Republicans.

It’s like journalists and paid pundits haven’t learned anything in 4 years. SMFH! 🤦🏻‍♀️
Exactly like I noted in the embedded thread, Trump doesn’t bother speaking to the general public. His strategy is to win the Electoral College, not a popular vote.

He just validated his hold over his voter base by tricking Biden into defending himself from conspiracy theories.
Trump doesn’t care whether the majority of Americans want him in power. He doesn’t care if he loses the popular vote. His goal is to steal the election and gain loyal support from his well armed and radicalized religious nationalist and severely delusional voter base.
If that doesn’t secure him an election win with the addition of Russian & Chinese vote altering & voter suppression, he’s stacked the court with a Dominionist loyalists who will hand it to him through SCOTUS. And if that doesn’t work, he’s got a cache of ready & willing militias.
Whomever prepped Biden for this debate should be fired. I’m furious Biden walked into a laid trap. Gave Trump almost everything he was aiming to have validated. He just helped Trump secure his base’s loyalty and cemented the Q’Anon paranoid conspiratorial religious fervour.
Trump made several accusations against Biden and his family. Turned the tables on Biden regarding China and Russia. Made an appeal regarding character vs truth & fact. Accused Biden and his son of being who the Q’Anon conspiracy is about and criminally corrupt.
Biden responded by defending himself and barely mentioning Trump’s accusations are Q’Anon “Big Lie” conspiracy theories and Russian provided provotskiya propaganda. He mentioned Giuliani and Russian disinformation, but did not make the Q connection.
Q’Anon and Dominionists are going to use Biden’s responses as confirmation that Trump is affirming the Q’Anon beliefs as truth.

Q’Anon and Dominionist Christians have quite a bit of Venn Diagram overlap.

Articles about Q: medium.com/memewarweekly/…

Q’Anon has been growing since 2017. A conspiracy theory that includes the belief that left wing politicians and Hollywood stars are Satan worshippers and all part of a child sex trafficking ring and regularly drink the blood of children to preserve their virulence and longevity.
If somebody believes that “Big Lie” then they have a loose relationship with reality and are entirely suggestible to further conspiracy theories.

Well, what do you think has been going on in Trump’s voter base for the last 4 years? Continuous reinforcement of a closed society.
Just like I described in the embedded thread above. The far right’s support base is being controlled by Thought Reform (Brainwashing) techniques endemic to cults.

Explained in this thread here:
Trump, McConnell, Barr, Coney Barrett, Pompeo, and a litany of far right Evangelical Pastors of extremist Dominionist Mega Churches are a death cult.

Q’Anon is a death cult.
The same cult indoctrination process and recruitment techniques used to persuade 614 people to kill themselves and 304 (total 918) of their children for Jim Jones by drinking cyanide laced koolaid is being used to keep millions of people closed off from reality.
Q’Anon and the vast majority of Evangelical and Traditionalist Dominionist Christians are cult members. Truth and facts don’t get through to cult members.
Cult members live in a protective bubble of mass delusion, magical thinking and use thought terminating cliches to ward off cognitive dissonance. There is nothing that can sway their devotion to the cult leader.

Except their devotion wanes without constant reinforcement.
You think that’s crazy talk? Think again.

What kind of person would honestly believe literally all left wing progressives & centrists are Satan worshipping, child murdering cannibals that drink the blood of babies and all participate and profit in racketeering and pedophilia?
A cult member.

That’s about it.

Only someone who has been manipulated and sheltered from truth and reality would believe in a “Big Lie” so ridiculously incredible.

But Dominionists and Q’Anon believe this is the truth fervently.
These people are not nuts, stupid or gullible. They have been psychologically manipulated to believe in a dystopian “alternate reality.”

They’ve been taught to ignore critical thinking and trust only their cult leader and keep faith.

Let that sink in.
Q’Anon and Dominionism are possible because evangelical dogma indoctrinates the faithful to believe the bible was written by god. It is “without error” or inerrant. So it trumps all secular laws & norms. The bible is god’s instruction manual, to be implemented by church leaders.
This is a podcast that elucidates the nature of Dominionist Christian Reconstructionists. That’s what many Dominionists are; their ambition is to reconstruct society from the ground up.

That’s what is happening globally. Please listen to it.

If you are up to date on global politics, you know Q’Anon and Dominionism are part of the surge in autocracy worldwide.

Q demonstrations have occurred in Germany, France, Spain, Brazil, Canada, Hungary, Ukraine, Czech Rep, Austria, Belgium, UK, Australia, Chile.
What is the common link between all these nations?

Dominionist Christianity

Ultra Nationalism

Q’Anon

⤴️ Power of Far Right political parties

⤴️ Autocracy

International Democratic Union

⤵️ Democracy

Please watch video: . It’s a perfect description.
That’s what is happening.

Social Media is being used to radicalize and indoctrinate cult members. Using military grade psyops to recruit, indoctrinate and isolate radicalized cult members.

It’s a GD death cult. Some believe we are in End Times and they seek to hasten the end.
That’s who Kenney, Ford, Moe, Pallister, Higgs, Legault, O’Toole, Harper, Johnson, Morrison, Trump, Orban, & Bolsonaro all have in common. Dominionism put them in power and Q‘Anon is designed to keep expanding and keep them in power in perpetuity.

At the expense of democracy.
And us!

So read this thread carefully and then read it again. This is NOT theory. This is really and truly happening.

We can stop it if we show solidarity and unite to dismantle the far right death cult.

The US election is in less than 2 weeks.
All hell is going to break out if Trump wins OR loses. Doesn’t matter. Every other expert on fascism is stating the same warning.

Notice she says US has a chance if they vote Biden. It’s not a guarantee.
I am standing on the shoulders of giants and attempting to amplify this message in Canada.

I’m no one special. Just a citizen with a lot of free time and decent research skills. Who also studied fascism to learn more about the atrocities my grandfather witnessed during WW2.
I could see this coming 4 years ago when Trump won the US election. Because I’ve studied fascism and how it works.

I had hoped to avert this outcome by writing about it daily and assembling all the data points I could to demonstrate to Canadians that we are in extreme danger.
Here we are 4 years later and I’m still writing, informing and educating about what is happening.

I’m not a conspiracy theorist. I rely on experts research and their commentary and monitor Canadian, American, UK, and global politics to keep informed.
This is really happening. Canadians need to be prepared and aware of why federal conservatives are making a move to push for a snap election right now.
Canada is NOT exceptional. We are as vulnerable to populist rhetoric as any other nation of people. We are under attack. This move to envelope the globe in fascism is coordinated.

Who would expect a Canadian of organizing a global coup?
Stephen Harper is a Dominionist Christian who runs the International Democratic Union (IDU). The organization behind almost every autocratic surge in nations across the globe.
Centrists and progressives need to unite in purpose. We MUST block CPC from winning any & all elections and start demanding accountability of far right and far left premiers. Immediately.

We are in a war for governance model, not who governs. Democracy or fascism is the choice.
I choose democracy. I choose freedom of thought and freedom to protest.

I feel the need to explain the rationale behind this policy. It’s only one small part of an overall policy framework that paleolibertarians (UCP are libertarian, NOT conservative) are implementing in healthcare.
Offloading the cost of medication onto patients and their insurance accomplishes advances the overall goal of transferring healthcare costs and approval to employers.

Yes you read that correctly. UCP is in the process of transferring responsibility for healthcare to employers.
I documented the Telus Health business plan here. And yes, Andrea Shandro sells this insurance package to employers. So yes, there is a conflict of interest. Regardless what the Ethics Commissioner stated.

I need to explain the politics behind the recent indigenous issues that have emerged.

They are about indigenous treaty rights.

One is for hunting/fishing rights.

One is long unresolved land title claims.

Many for water safety and sanitation.
All involve the inaction of a federal government that has long neglected FN indigenous communities and ignored the rights supposedly guaranteed by signed treaties and the constitution.

Both liberals and conservatives have long ignored and frankly, exacerbated tensions.
One political party campaigned for years to become the de facto champion of FN issues. Another is attempting to be the virtuous political party.

That’s the background.

In a nut shell, it’s power. BCNDP has a minority government that kept being held back by Green Party threats of non confidence. BCNDP want a majority to increase their power.

Fed NDP ARE the party holding Liberals back. So they wish to maintain influence and power.
I don’t ever want to hear NDP supporters speak/write the words proportional representation ever again.

PR has always been about power. NDP and Greens will NEVER hold a majority federal government. Their only option to wield power is a minority government.
But NDP are abundantly in support of FPTP when it can obtain a provincial majority. A majority is Horgan’s ambition.

So fair warning Dippers, if you ever mention PR to me again as “fair,” I’m bookmarking this thread to call out NDP hypocrisy and double standards.

Please allow me the opportunity to dispel the myths about a general strike that you’re amplifying.
First, a general strike would involve more than teachers. It means a significant portion of the community marches in protest until the government steps down.

Canada has had 1 general strike in the past. But that was a labour dispute.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winnipeg_…
A GENERAL STRIKE involves more than just one labour group. It’s a demonstration of public solidarity & unity. It would mean doctors, public servants, nurses, teachers, parents, and all supportive citizens refuse to work and march in the streets until the government resigns.

This astute observation needs to be amplified.

From an objective distance, you can see the pattern. And it’s being used by both NDP and CPC.

1. Make a salacious accusation.
2. Win the election.
3. Drop the issue once the election is won.
It’s a feature of the Finkelstein Method.

Triggering visceral emotions creates allegiance in voting behaviour.

Accusations used:
1. Sexual impropriety
2. Criminal corruption
3. Substance abuse and violence
4. Targeted hate like racism, misogyny & homophobia
Every accusation is amplified exponentially. It doesn’t matter if people believe it. It only matters that in comparison to other candidates, the accusation exists.

Smears create doubts and trigger a visceral response to the alleged crime.

Rage
Disgust
Fear

Lock HIM up. This is ridiculous.

US citizens: this is hate speech. It is irresponsible to allow hate speech to be used without consequence. Americans need to rethink their support of freedom to incite violence and hatred. You’d solve half your problems. Lives over liberty.
The problem is a restriction on individual liberty is frowned upon by Americans. But seat belt laws, speed limits, yelling fire in a crowded theatre. Those are all limits on individualism. Inciting hatred is worse than those 3 examples by magnitudes, combined. Yet it’s allowed.
People are being targeted because Americans value their liberties. How many must die before hate speech becomes a regulatory exception to the American view of freedom of speech.

Slavery used to be acceptable. Lincoln made it unacceptable. But allowed hate to remain in place.
