This sort of bullshit is recognizable to us at @erumors as the latest in a genre of school hysteria -- the only thing that's changed is the group involved. It used to mostly be about Muslims and trans kids, but I guess disinfo purveyors are branching out

It's very simple. [Designated out-group] is reported to demand some sort of change, which is packaged in hysterical, overemotional language to gin up a moral panic. The bonus is that it can be used to attack public schools as well, as you can see. Example: truthorfiction.com/did-a-muslim-p…
Here's another one (this is from our archives and has not yet been refurbished, so there's a bit of a difference in the formatting)

Aaaaand another. You see how it works, I guess truthorfiction.com/stonewall-coll…

Hello everybody, please enjoy this 1987 op-ed I found by somebody who isn't against seat belts, just seat belt mandates web.archive.org/web/2021032001…
Sorry, I meant letter to the editor in response to an op-ed*, which I am still looking for. But check it out ImageImage
I can't find the anti-seat belt editorial. But I did find this. You see how it's been the exact same pattern, all along, right down to the way it's been politicized? From 1986 web.archive.org/web/2021031904… Image

It's not really strange. It's horseshoe theory, and anti-democracy activists like Alexandr Dugin think that red-brown alliances in service of far right ideologies are the way to destroy democracies from the ground up and replace them with authoritarianism. It's always been this.
It's ecofascism. Remember all that warning I was doing about population control maniacs and climate warlords and global far right power grabs? I saw them allying and plotting, and wanted to stop it before we got to exactly this
That's the sort of plotting you get when you're going to use disinformation campaigns to weaponize an ongoing climate crisis against the public at large in the service of resource consolidation -- with the help of corrupt tech and energy companies. A global, far right power grab.

These people are telling us all important things about what they are.
You should believe them.
That's why I posted this thread last night.

I see we're talking about the Doctor's Plot conspiracy theory again without pointing out that it's a weaponized, explicitly antisemitic narrative. it's important to point out the history and goals of these conspiracy theories truthorfiction.com/anti-vaccine-d…
It's important because they have track record of getting a lot of people killed and hurt, which members of the media and political worlds wielding them absolutely know. They're doing it on purpose. You need to remember that. These are not innocent mistakes.

And yet they had people in the mix from CIS -- the Center for Immigration Studies -- one of the "population control" groups of the white supremacist #TantonNetwork.
You see what a chokehold these eugenicist groups have on our immigration discussion? And they push disinformation from the start. This is complete bullshit
And yet, in the name of "both sides," we are forced to entertain the hysterical fantasizing of pro-eugenics lobbying groups created by avowed white supremacists. Further reading about CIS, FAIR, NumbersUSA and all the rest of their shell groups here: adl.org/news/article/t…

The #TantonNetwork ensures the borderlands as a training ground
David Duke and Tom Metzger formed what they called "the first citizen border patrol" in the late 1970s. The New York Times covered it in 1977
See? It's always the same people nytimes.com/1977/10/18/arc…
