Imagine deciding to disrupt someone's wedding. You'd have to think that it would help your cause, you were entitled to disrupt, and you were good and they were evil. Grandiosity, entitlement, and "splitting" (black & white thinking) define pathological narcissism. https://t.co/mv3X2PE2bstwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Let's start from the beginning. Emissions have been declining in the UK and around the world. They will continue to decline if @JustStop_Oil & others allow for more natural gas production to replace coal. Instead, they're blocking natural gas production.
@JustStop_Oil Humans and ecosystems are doing pretty well adapting to higher temperatures, despite the hysterical disinformation from regime media, which refuse to publish basic data like these.
@JustStop_Oil Regime media actively spread disinformation. They create disinformation by refusing to account for reporting bias, something you learn about in statistics 101.
@JustStop_Oil Regime media deliberately fail to account for reporting bias on other issues, like race and trans, in order to claim an increase in hate crimes and police violence.
@JustStop_Oil Here are a few government/news/social media disinfo campaigns:
— “Trump is a Russian asset”
— “Covid lab leak is a debunked conspiracy theory”
— “Vaccine side effects are misinformation”
— “Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinfo”
— “Twitter Files didn't show censorship”
— “Trump is a Russian asset”
— “Covid lab leak is a debunked conspiracy theory”
— “Vaccine side effects are misinformation”
— “Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinfo”
— “Twitter Files didn't show censorship”
@JustStop_Oil The effort to dismiss Covid lab leak was a disinformation campaign, meaning the people who waged the disinfo effort knew it was disinfo. They weren't just wrong. They were lying.
@JustStop_Oil US government officials got third parties (eg Stanford) to run the disinformation efforts and demand the censorship, including of true information
@JustStop_Oil Both Facebook and Twitter say that these disinformation efforts were coming from within federal law enforcement and intelligence communities.
@JustStop_Oil Aspen Institute, Stanford, and others participated in the disinformation efforts, running sessions to brainwash journalists, who were happy to oblige. They then engaged in disinfo by spreading a wild conspiracy theory (ie the Russians did it).
@JustStop_Oil Propaganda (disinfo) works by tapping cultural values. Today, the dominant value is "preventing harm against vulnerable groups."
Groups tied to military intel. and security organizations in Five Eyes nations are trying to censor & read your private messages "to prevent harm"

@JustStop_Oil The media started to brainwash the American people into believing that racism was a much bigger problem than we had believed before 2015, and it worked. Look at the change in attitudes.
@JustStop_Oil A big part of this is political. Brexit and Trump freaked out Western elites, who responded by seeking to protect the Western Alliance and NATO by running propaganda and censorship campaigns through NGO cut-outs, weak regime journalists (propagandists), and "think tanks."
@JustStop_Oil They tapped into the new Woke religions born from secularization and nihilism.
@JustStop_Oil Propagandiss tap into the new secular religions, which offer a new external authority (climate/nature), a new hierarchical moral order (BIPOC), and a new view of the human soul and human nature (a gendered soul + infinitely malleable body).
@JustStop_Oil The combination of secular nihilism, rising anxiety from social media, the 2016 revolutions, and the new Woke religions has resulted in the rise of Cluster B psychiatric disorders including anti-social (psychopathy), borderline, histrionic, and narcissism, as with @JustStop_Oil
@JustStop_Oil The climate activists who narcissistically feel entitled to attack a sacred event like a wedding engaged in narcissistic behaviors last year, attacking sacred works of art. Contrast their behavior to the genuinely altruistic behavior of civil rights activists in the past.
@JustStop_Oil Anti-social personality disorder, or psychopathy, is aggressive, dangerous, and violent. It preys upon the weak. It's the urge to censor, silence, or force people to salute or use their preferred words under threat of violence. It emerges in mob behavior. It claims victim status.
@JustStop_Oil Histrionic behavior, which used to be called hysteria, and "splitting" (black & white thinking), are often exhibited alongside narcissism and psychopathy.
@JustStop_Oil What can be done? We have to explain, not just condemn. That's the lesson a Polish psychologist who suffered under Nazi and Communist totalitarianism concluded. You can't just say, "That's bad." You have to show how it's psychopathological. Deranged. A sign of Cluster B.
@JustStop_Oil We must take care not to become the thing we're fighting.
We must be courageous. We must fight to return to Enlightenment values including freedom of speech and equal justice under the law.
We must be courageous. We must fight to return to Enlightenment values including freedom of speech and equal justice under the law.
@JustStop_Oil We must also debunk the misinformation. Facts still matter. Debunking is not enough, but it's a requirement.
We must tap into our innate optimism. We are more tolerant of racial, religious, and sexual differences than ever before. We still believe things will get better.

@JustStop_Oil And we must provide a positive vision to the dystopianism of @JustStop_Oil
We can lift everyone out of poverty while saving nature.
We can have it all: freedom, prosperity, and freedom.
Let's do this!
