Russia and other authoritarian states realized what a boon for disinformation the internet was and wrecked it starting with the 2016 election.

Both China and South Africa are aligned with Iran and Russia. Who are the baddies again?
I’ve watched the video many times. He ultimately gets it right, but clearly fumbles with it upside down as though it was a completely novel object.
Trump was in charge on J6. The failure to crack down then, is in part due to Trump intentionally not cracking down. I would compare this to the heavy handed crackdown on the DC Black Lives Matter protesters. You know, the one where he heals a Bible upside down. That was a violent crackdown on mostly peaceful protestors.
I actually think this represents something much more ominous. Everyone on here assumes he’s incompetent because he’s bankrupted companies before. He’s done that with reason, and likely it was because he’s laundered money using the trick. I think in the case of the RNC and his campaign funds it indicates he’s found fraudulent means to pay for everything and he has access to tremendous amounts of dark money via foreign adversaries. The Truth Social IPO is one possible source. I actually doubt that one because he likely sees it as his own money. PACs will close the gap, but I’d be willing to bet there’s some other scheme filling his coffers. Draining alternative sources of money for GOP candidates also enables him to manipulate everyone down ballot since they’ll be aware of the scheme or stuck on his teat. This is a very, very bad sign for politics and we’re at the endgame for a US totalitarian government.
Will you shut up, man.
Reader mode at least helps you cut to the chase.
Not being intentionally dense. You post something inflammatory and give little to no explanation other than a link that doesn’t help and call them clowns. Ok bud. 🤡
The link you sent has very little context so I’m not certain what you want me to see. It’s a post about SSL and has one additional comment. I find you to be not helpful and off putting. Perhaps there’s more to the ban than whatever you’d like me to see.
That seems reasonable to me. It wasn’t hard to stay active.
Sounds like there’s two sides to that story.
I’ve been adrift since baconBits shut down. Would love an invite.
Is it true? My knee jerk reaction is ‘what utter racist bullshit’, but then why is Trump gaining black male voters since the beginning of the year?
