The same people, over and over, pivoting in unison like zombies to the latest malformed and astroturfed “grievance.” The exact same people. They’re drama addicted gadflies with no true cause of their own and they should be covered accordingly.
Oh yeah, they do have a cause: They’re white supremacists and their bootlicking enablers.
But those are also the exact people — angry, riddled with drama and outbursts, personal lives a mess, no clear or true cause nor direction in life, no real or strong sense of self — who are most prone to radicalization, particularly online.
And now, thanks to @Facebook stealing and selling our data, every bad entity on the planet knows exactly who they are and how to manipulate them into acts of intimidation, violence, or even biowarfare.
And that’s exactly why targeted disinformation is so dangerous.

These are also the two elected leaders in Michigan who encouraged those mobs of armed men at the statehouse and elsewhere because they were mad about wearing masks. They are complicit
Like I said — it’s the same gadflies everywhere, over and over again. It is hideous grift and theater with millions of lives on the line. It’s just a game to them, because they think they’re immune or exempt. That’s what a culture of impunity does to people.
You mean the same San Diego Republican Party currently chaired by a man who used to leave Hitler videos in games he’d cracked and whose sons openly call themselves nationalists and groypers? That one?
It's Friday night and your friendly neighborhood debunker is tired as hell and at the IPA again so let's talk a s t r o l o g y
I'm pretty open about my love for all things woo, which I am very resentful about because it's been shit up by fascists and MLMs. I read my horoscope every day, but only at the end of the day, to see how accurate it was.
