This is the kind of horrific shit that happens when you fall for a weaponized disinformation campaigns about the border. axios.com/biden-border-m…
I’m too tired to correct that
We are in the age of climate catastrophe now. These are climate refugees. If we do not rethink everything right now, the future will be darker and darker. And those writing the disinformation narratives know this, which is why they attack migration. They are eco-fascists
Say it with me one more time! A global, far right power grab using big tech to push disinfo to weaponize climate catastrophes against us all. This won’t be our last pandemic. We are in the age of the global crisis now and we better start acting like it
On the topic of climate refugees. This was 2019

insideclimatenews.org/news/08072019/…
Also 2019. They didn't ignore it, they weaponized it with disinformation campaigns both in countries of origination and here. Remember the caravans, the lies, the odd accounts appearing and disappearing? The firehosing may have distracted you from this: nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
It isn't getting better. 2021 theguardian.com/world/2021/nov…
The timing of this attack on Ukraine was probably (I don't have enough evidence to say definitely) because it will be the last year the ground will be soft enough for heavy tanks in winter. Already you can see the disastrous effects the early thaw has had climateknowledgeportal.worldbank.org/country/ukraine
And you can also now clearly see the reason for all that horrible anti-immigrant disinformation getting seeded all over Europe the last few years as well as here in the United States. This is what hybrid warfare looks and feels like in practice.
For further reading, I highly recommend Christian Parenti, who called it years ago.

"I argue that climate change doesn’t just look like bad weather. More often, it looks like ethnic pogroms, religious violence, criminal mayhem, civil war, and state failure. Dig beneath the surface of many social and political conflicts and you find a clear climatological angle."
Shit! I meant to say the ground will be HARD enough, not SOFT enough, and now of course it's too late to go back and re-do argh well anyway

Here's the sort of thing the doctor's plot weaponized conspiracy theory is circulated to encourage, direct, etc. freep.com/story/news/loc… via @freep
"I want Zionist banker blood," Caserta is heard saying in one recording, likely referring to an antisemitic conspiracy theory that "Zionists" have infiltrated the government and make major decisions that shape society from behind the scenes."

It's filthy and dangerous ICE is refusing to move the people imprisoned there per the story
washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
"The report drew a highly unusual rebuke from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and CoreCivic, the private company that runs the facility, with both accusing the government watchdog of staging photos and fabricating claims.
Filthy sinks and clogged toilets, for instance, were in unoccupied areas undergoing renovations, company officials said."

I've said it before and I'll say it again: If you use your own right to free speech to talk over others, to take up space and time that otherwise might be used by others, to threaten or intimidate people into silence, then it ceases to be free speech by definition.
Free speech means EVERYBODY gets a chance to talk. Not just some dipshit white boy who wants so so bad to say the n-word. Also: freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequences from said speech.
Free speech helps us feel out the edges of what we find acceptable as a society. The people trying to push their own "freedoms" without repercussion are trying to use communication to mold society into their own models without consent. They should be invited to fuck themselves.

Next time don't let sad little dipshits like this guy make policy, yeah? He has no credibility, no talent, nothing to offer. This is all he's capable of.
Just like every other disinformation purveyor.
