They don't expect you believe them.
Author: Raine    Date: 10/24/2022 12:59:56

in one of the places I frequent, someone posted a tweet/meme, whatever you want to call it. It had these words: Here is the link, but again the words matter.

Don’t forget the main russian propaganda technique: when spreading their blatant lies, they don’t expect you to believe them. They want you to believe nothing.
This makes you apathetic and unable to form firm opinions or take decisive action. Then they can take their own actions.


I felt an immediate reaction to it. And because of that, this is what I want to say this morning.

Don’t forget the primary GOP propaganda technique: when spreading their blatant lies, they don’t expect you to believe them. They want you to believe in nothing. This makes you apathetic and unable to form firm opinions or take decisive action. Then they can take their own actions.

The GOP really has taken up Soviet era propaganda techniques. The goal is to get the average citizen to not care about things that matter and instead foment rage and fear about things they would otherwise never know existed. That's it, that's the plan.

I will never succumb to propaganda.

Let's get this week started.

Good morning. I'll be rooting for the Phillies!

I am glad the Yankees got swept. (Sorry, NY wing.)

But I too saw the photos from the Stadium last night - perhaps Boston doesn't have the best sports fans in the world today?

Mornin' all!

A nation-state actor.. well that really narrows it down to Russia, China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Turkey, and maybe Pakistan.
