To amplify or not to amplify?

That is the question. NY Times op ed piece suggested that ignoring all the shenanigans actually promotes acceptance, ignoring.

I'm done with Trump, DeSantis, Ramaswamy, Cruz, MTG, Bobo, Gertz, Santos and Christofascist Mike Johnson. These people are beneath America. It's crazy when a Cheney, Chisty and Romney are the sane ones. They're worse than carnival barkers. Dante has the deepest level of hell for them. The strategy is to overwhelm the parent with bad behavior so some slips through. Never mind it's being in the child position as a leader. The body rots from the top, we need a better system for finding politicians besides who is the most grandiose and venial. The far right wing Christofascist are trying to sneak in behind the grifter wingbats. It's a void, and that's where revolutions come.

Not amplifying their grifts does make space for some of it to sneak by. But I don't have time to be the policeman of America, it's a crowd sourcing job.

It's an acceptable political philosophy to want less government. But blowing it up from the inside is unamerican to me. Look in the mirror those people who voted for Santos. 

And the American voters need to get their shit together and make real choices based on the options.

Musk destroyed Twitter because he didn't like the liberal voices taking down the grifts. He didn't love free speech, but people bought that bullshit easy. Musk believes in can call workers at 2am on a Monday morning. He wants society to be more like ones where stochastic violence works. Stop listening to what they say and watch what they are doing. Have a little discernment. Use that advanced animal brain to notice what is going on. I don't care if you have conservative instincts, use those too, we need people paying attention. Because what I'm seeing, America isn't paying attention with their big boy pants on.

Lots of people don't like Carter's malaise speech. They were just whining about gas prices. Look at what is going on people.

6 month old podcast

Al Franken has a podcast , and he has my favorite Heather Cox Richardson , and they have an interesting discussion. He talks about the knife edge. She really explains the Republican strategy. Flood the zone with shit. Alternate facts, and fake news opens up the idea that there is no reality. It's basically reality versus false reality.  The goal is to both get people to back away from politics, and to tell them how to specifically think. Developed in Russia, a system of overturning democracy. Running fake candidates, who switch parties, and running candidates with the same name. Blackmail is a technique. Create a fake reality that people come to believe. They're willing to vote for a narrative is not true, and they're willing to vote away their rights.  You can flip it and use the same tools.You can weaponize social media by ignoring the shit, and fight back against all these techniques. People defend democracy. They're talking about community and caring for people and ...
