“If all information is seen as part of a war, out go any dreams of a global information space where ideas flow freely, bolstering deliberative democracy. Instead, the best future one can hope for is an ‘information peace’, in which each side respects the other’s ‘information sovereignty’: a favoured concept of both Beijing and Moscow, and essentially a cover for enforcing censorship.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality, 2019

"America’s gullibility crisis"

 

This is the kind of post we’d like to see more of from Trump.

Hell fucking no. It is exactly the problem with the entire population, 100%, 340 million people in USA. "America’s gullibility crisis".

The only kind of post we want to see is Donald Trump and the entire GOP / Republican party admitting he is bad and all of them resign, reporting to prison. [email protected] lessons for Trump, learning morality.

"So what I suddenly realized when I recognized that in the Great Seal of the United States there were two of these symbolic triangles interlocked was that we now had thirteen points, for our thirteen original states, and that there were now, furthermore, no less than six apexes, one above, one below, and four (so to say) to the four quarters. The sense of this, it seemed to me, might be that from above or below, or from any point of the compass..." - George Lucas Skywalker Ranch lessons for Star Wars fanatics, Hollywood audiences, summer of 1987.
