The money quote from this article on the Georgia grand jury,: “… if every person in America knew every single word of information we knew, this country would not be as divided as it is right now.” (Thread)

The MAGA political movement is built on a foundation of outright lies, suppression of truth, and grievance politics. All of this is meant to help a minority hold power by dividing the majority against itself. It’s how every repressive government works.

This is something different from an ideological divide. In any dialectic moment, ideas collide and combine into a new synthesis. But here, one group is hiding and misrepresenting information, rather than letting light shine on its ideas for scrutiny.

When you look at the revelations from the Dominion lawsuit against FOX, the biggest is that their stars were telling stories they knew to be false—in service to the MAGA movement. It’s a movement that wants to divide people along lines of ideology, religion, gender, and race.

All of this functions to keep people from making informed assessments on ideas, and to prevent people from coming together for any kind of common good. That is today’s far-right MAGA aim—and THAT is what we must eradicate from this country.
