As much as I don't want to add value to this platform by producing content for it, the potential benefits of sharing this outweigh that downside. I think y'all know by now that this is not the place to come to if you want to follow my thoughts.
A good practice right now, and I will have trouble doing it but am sure going to try, is to withhold reactions to provocations as long as possible. Allow time for the frontal cortex to engage rather than just letting the amygdala react without reflection.
@SaintMystic@TheCinesthetic Little mermaid: The ideal woman has nice legs and keeps her mouth shut. Consent is optional.
Beauty and the Beast: It's okay if your man rages at you sometimes, so long as he loves you.
@RVAwonk Totally. Similar to how I feel about truth. Spun truth makes some of the best propaganda because it holds up to fact checks. Why invent a lie and risk being uncovered when a truth is sufficient to sow the doubt you seek?
@LayneDarlin @RVAwonk I see Palantir's role in this as to be a terribly efficient tool for identifying the most vulnerable pressure points in a population. Big Data analytics can tell you what topics to focus on, which social nodes to target, what style of language to use, and so much more.
The most significant “rigging” of this election came from Russia turning people’s brains into warm rice pudding over a period of ~75 years through Active Measures. That’s regrettable, but it’s not like nobody knew it was happening. The fact is that no one has much cared.
Are you one of the many voices I'm suddenly seeing push for Newsom to replace Biden as the democratic nominee? If so, can you remember where you first got the idea from? How long have you held that position? Is it new, or is it something you've been thinking for a while now?
@sentdefender You used to be such a valuable source of raw Intel, but now your biased editorializing has gotten so out of hand that I can't even trust the rest of what you post.
It's made me real sad to watch you become another casualty of modern great-power conflict.
Fuck war. Buh-bye.
