Switched our campus to @ATTBusiness expecting better than @comcastbusiness. It's been worse.

Billing is a mess: multiple portals, no central view, balances due, no invoices. We can't pay without invoices (internal controls). Told they'll mail it.

@ATTBusiness we need a solution

Why so much propaganda and lying over there in Democrat Wokeland? Especially with some of the absolutely incredible things we're seeing in Minnesota, where people seem very detached from reality?

A key part of the answer is George Soros's concept of "reflexivity." You'll want to understand this.

Reflexivity is a property of social circumstances, Soros tells us in his 1992 book The Alchemy of Finance, where he develops the concept. It's what sets the social sciences apart from the physical sciences and is based on the fact that in social situations, the objects (people) affected by circumstances are also subjects and participants in creating circumstances.

Soros explains that this means that "social sciences" are a misnomer, in fact. He suggests instead that they should be recognized as "social alchemy." He goes on to explain the relevance of this difference:

"Scientific method seeks to understand things as they are, while alchemy seeks to bring about a desired state of affairs. To put it another way, the primary objective of science is truth, -- that of alchemy, operational success."

Soros explains that reflexivity is a dialectic, like the dialectic of Hegel but less abstruse and like the dialectic of Marx but more open-ended. What that means is that it is "transformative" in its operation and goals. That is, it is designed to create specific, guided change, i.e., "operational success."

Soros explains that reflexivity operates in a peculiar and specific space: in the gap between what people believe is true and what is actually true. That is, the reflexive dialectic refers to inducing and utilizing actionable beliefs that are wrong.

Thus, all the propaganda.

For his method to work, there must be a gap between what is actually true and what many, many people believe is true.

For it to work, lots of people have to be dangerously wrong.

He goes on to explain that reflexive campaigns propagate through something he calls "fertile fallacies," which are errors (or lies) that lead people to act upon them, including sharing and spreading their falsehoods with others (going viral).

Thus, again, all the propaganda.

Over time, people have to be primed to be this wrong, actionably.

The way you get them there is by systematically misleading them about reality.

Soros also explains that during normal situations, which he says are "near equilibrium" (or stable), significant or "historic" change is not possible. Big changes that fundamentally reorient the way a system works only occur in situations that are "far from equilibrium" (chaotic).

During such times, people are desperate to regain stability and equilibrium, so, Soros says, they'll latch on to any "guideposts" that can lead them through the chaos.

Thus, yet again, all the propaganda.

The potential for chaos has to be arranged while getting a lot of people to believe something highly actionable that is mostly untrue, and then it has to be sparked, and then it has to be guided.

That's how the "Soros Model" (reflexivity) works.

In Minnesota right now, a huge reflexive campaign (direct action) has been launched, but it has also been building at least for many months (actually years, over a decade). The gap between what people believe and reality (or, the pertinent one among many) is that Trump is an illegitimate dictator (TDS) and his agencies, like ICE, are effectively a fascist Gestapo bringing something like Nazism to the United States, with lower officials either complicit or incapable of stopping it.

That has been the tone and tenor of a lot of the propaganda for at least a decade, and certainly very specifically since Trump took office. (Trump's admin's comms team isn't helping itself here with a lot of its unnecessarily provocative shitpoasting from official accounts, btw.)

Your average Leftist in Minnesota, agitators, organizers, provocateurs, etc., aside (with all of them playing their obvious roles) fully believes wildly untrue things about Trump, ICE, the law, what ICE is doing, why ICE is doing it, who ICE is removing from their communities, on what authority, and why, and more. They are extremely deranged and functionally psychotic.

They're in a state that is far from equilibrium and loaded up with fertile fallacies, a state I refer to on the community-level as having high reflexive potential. Just a little propaganda of very specific types will set them off into mass (psychotic) direct action, as we see.

Thus, so much of the propaganda, both chronically over the last year(s) and acutely, since ICE Floyd.

What Democratic politicians and media apparatchiks are doing now in Minnesota, to say nothing of the agitators, provocateurs, organizers, etc., and their social media appendages, is putting down "guideposts" about how to deal with this far from equilibrium situation, pushing wildly deluded people into psychopathic action.

THIS, guys, is the "Soros Model" in action (which has been widely adopted by institutional manipulators since the late 1980s when he taught it first to the CCP and then more widely).

Fwiw, in The Alchemy of Finance, Soros explains that he likes to use this method because he "takes a certain malicious pleasure in shorting an institutional favorite." The United States and the American Experiment are the best bet in the world, though, a big, big, big "institutional favorite" I'm sure Soros and his acolytes would maliciously enjoy shorting this way.

This is why so many Democratic politicians like Tim Walz and Jacob Frey and Ilhan Omar, and beyond Minnesota too, and their media and social media appendages all started screaming "ICE OUT" immediately after the triggering incident we can call ICE Floyd. They're shifting gears from building reflexive potential to releasing and guiding it.

It's also why they put so much time and effort into steadily building the reflexive potential of raging TDS. You can see how immediately actionable it is (guided by opportunistic and evil politicians, media entities, and a highly coordinated network of professional organizers and social media personalities, many completely anonymous). They needed lots of people to have a wide gap between what they believe and what's true (reflexive gap) that they could take advantage of to suddenly create "historic change" under their guidance at the right moment.

We need to understand that this is how Leftists work. All of this can be defused by targeting the building reflexive potential before the moment of explosion arrives, while they're building it. It can be dampened by increasing the number of people and voices who are savvy to the manipulations and lies and who are making the truth more visible to people who mostly haven't been paying attention until it has high immediacy. Reflexive campaigns can be dampened, fizzled, and stopped.

The continued mission creep of schools

Mental health support? Sports? Breakfast, lunch, and snack? Teaching kids proper decorum? Sex ed? Fitness and health? Financial literacy?

Every time schools take another responsibility on, it’s a permission structure for families not to

Trump calls Kamala Harris' economic policy plan the "Maduro plan" as in the Venezuelan socialist tyrant.

She just proposed widespread price controls, which destroyed the Venezuelan economy and forced 8 million of us to flee our country.
