47% are extremely susceptible to disinformation echo chambers.
The rich have eroded academic institutions and flooded the airwaves, muddying the waters of reality that only those with time and strong critical-thinking skills can parse.
Put another way: if I was a psychopathic piece of shit I'd know that a dumb electorate is easier to grift and control. So I'd make sure they stay confused, ignorant, and apathetic.
Have you heard of the Russian disinformation genius Surkov? His tactic is to confuse people so they don't know true from flase, wrong from right etc and get apathetic and defeatist.
That's related to Survok Theater, right? Between Dugin and him, the Russian propaganda tactics being used read like an open book. We see the game being played but what are some possible solutions? Must we hope people learn their lesson in the collapse to come?
Keep an eye on the different ones. I got a sub to Proton Plus for like $3/mon at Thanksgiving time. Plenty of others out there have great deals every once in a while. I hadn't used a personal VPN for a while, but at this point I see no difference between my non-VPN speeds and speeds when connected.
Obviously you have to extend some trust to any VPN, but them being Swiss (nationally no obligation to provide logs to anyone, anywhere) and having a strict no-logs policy was attractive to me. Sure, they might be full of shit on those claims, but anyone else might be too.
I can't bring myself to listen to or read right wing media for even a second. Anyone that claims Trump is doing a good job will make me fly into a Hulk-like rage.
Probably not many. My uncle listens to right wing podcasts all day. He used to constantly bring up their half informed talking points, but now.... Almost nothing, but you can tell every time he does, it's filled with desperation. Like he NEEDS me to understand he made the right decision. It's all black tar copium
Sounds maybe even open to some kind of olive branch. I don't expect an apology or admission of wrongdoing from anyone. If they can admit this isn't what they wanted I'll take it.
Wishful thinking, were talking about people who WANT immigrants to suffer, they don't care how. The only thing that matters now is that "they" are suffering and that's unacceptable to them. Tho I can appreciate your desire for a common ground to fight against what's happening, they hate us, literally just because we care.
no felon rigged it, I seen it real time as the machines glitched in my area, I knew WTF happened but I held out hope that someone with power would end this bullshit so if I gotta put in my big boy pants and join in imma fuck up any maga cunt I see
I’ve probably been voting longer than you been alive. I’m so glad you could resolve my confusion with such bland, marvelous words, which shows a dedicated understanding of this very complex topic.
I’m sure you looked at the 176,933 precincts in the USA that has over 100 voting systems, with numerous often contradictory practices, and mediums ranging from paper ballots to many other types including the very fancy touch screens. In fact I know you did. I will rest easy. Again, thank you for helping me
