I was reading this and was like "dang these are good quotes" and then realized they're my own
All I can think when I see this disinformation purveyor's name is how he was part of the Brooks Brothers Riot inauthentically organized by Roger Stone in order to bully the USA into calling 2000 for Bush (sound familiar?) He's completely full of shit, always has been.
See? They've been inauthentically pushing actions and visuals like this to try to inflence elections since at least 2000. "Stop the Steal" was Roger Stone's PAC
You know who has openly bragged about his connections to and influence on people like Bannon, Trump, and Orban, not to mention Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, and many, many more?

The seeds for this were sown a few years ago with the USA white supremacist crowd handwringing about South African farms
They've been on this shit for at least forty years and they think they can leverage abortion into splitting up the United States. Don't let these tryhard losers win and don't let them fool you -- this was a white supremacist plan from the very beginning.
Dusting my 2018 interview off again, it's aged so much better than even I thought it would, thank goodness because it was terrifying to come out before the world and say this theguardian.com/technology/201…

"Aileen Blachowski, from Prosper, said she moved in recent years from California to Texas because she was “tired of the politics and tyranny of California.”"
Blachowski founded a group called "Informed Parents of California" because she was mad about "a radical sexual agenda"
This is an attack by the far right in the form of resilience targeting. It is the plan for the rest of the country, followed by privatization and corporatization - courtesy of the hypercorporate far right. That's why it's called a far right power grab. theguardian.com/us-news/2022/j…
"The board has fired the county health officer. The county CEO, under pressure from a conservative supervisor, has resigned. Amid the chaos and political division, the director of the health and human services agency retired." Resilience targeting. It is an act of war.

It's the lack of journalism, not the rage. The lack of journalism creates an information vacuum that is then filled with polarizing, news-adjacent or news mimicking content. Help journalism and everybody benefits.
The lack of independent journalism, pardon me. We have a fraction of the news orgs and working journalists now that we had even fifteen years ago and right now Americans are losing an average of two (2) newspapers a WEEK. Source: niemanlab.org/2022/06/the-u-…

Yeah. The same media and "disinformation experts" who missed the massive anti-woman disinfo campaign getting run for months before Roe. Wonder why that might be.
