Supporter of democracy, and voting/human rights. Opponent of disinformation.

@Angry_Staffer "dumber" is not the word to use here. neither is "incompetent" or "naive" or "inexperienced"

America is in extreme shenambles (shambles due to massive shenanigans) right now

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@AnnieForTruth DISINFORMATION

It explains quite a bit of what is seemingly not understandable

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@SSN674Trepang @micah_erfan "It's not a pure democracy; it's a representative democracy. That's not a democracy at all"

-- Terry Dickson, representative idiot (but also not an idiot at all... because he knows better, and is repeating lies on purpose to hopefully trick others who are ignorant of civics)

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@AmericaRus2024 @micah_erfan THEY VOTED FOR A DICTATOR!!

(but lied the whole time with "he was only joking about that. also... the guardrails will hold, so stop panicking over democracy fools")

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@beinlibertarian @cenkuygur More like top vs bottom

But it's bad. "Elites" had all the blame & criticism shoved onto them by the SUPER-ELITES... who used massive propaganda campaigns to quickly position themselves to hijack power, dodge all accountability, and write themselves a *much* darker meal ticket

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@atrupar And yet crickets from the D leaders

It took intense public pressure to get them to break norms enough to even speak on democratic danger. They finally listen, put it on blast for 2 years.. And this?

Either some huge contingency will be dropped by J20, or 🇺🇸 went GG a while ago

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@cenkuygur @TheGasStovee Let that Jenkins

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@theright_answer @AutismCapital Yeah ok. Just like the media started reporting huge amounts of fake news right after the biggest liar in the world jumped into politics

Racists had a new reason to shine. OF COURSE "woke" people fought it

I mean, were you also handsome af until your house had mirrors installed?

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@JPScmeckles @arachno_commie I hope you realize EVERY abhorrent thing Trump said or did has been weaseled out of in this manner

We're constantly told how he speaks so directly, cutting out PC or politispeak... but -- for some weird ass reason -- we need his worst shit explained to us through a sanity filter

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@nielloeb @EricLisann @HC_Richardson This is exactly why they scream about inflation & prices (but ignore corp gouging, or that it's a global issue)

This is also why they bang the "ELECTION STOLEN" drum, while *actively trying to steal it themselves*

It's proactive cover now so NOBODY will take Ds seriously later

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@DecodingFoxNews @cwebbonline Double standards should once again be a red line for all future discourse, rather than a jump-off point

Bad faith has been normalized

Instead of seeing mountains ignored to attack molehills, we need an accepted rule stopping convos dead if an attacker's fine with worse behavior

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@TheOneFortyPlus @WelchRobII Yeah, until anything remotely culture war-ish comes up as part of that typical socializing

Then we need to walk on eggshells to avoid "being combative" against some unreasonable, irrational culty take

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@timjacobwise @FPWellman OPs pushing disinfo solidified Rs more than ever, while D voters were carved into factions on strongly emotional issues

The push was obvious, resulting in 3P votes, apathy/suppression, split tickets, etc

"Biden-Kamala bad" 20 ways on 20 issues

"Trump bad" just merely baked in

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@elwood @evil_dallas @Tennesseine What I'd like to think is irrelevant, only what really is

Then the next step is ensuring the public gets an accurate view

EVERYONE CLAIMS they want fairness, legit media, lies & corruption mitigated

But if they really mean it, this is all *crucial* going forward in a tech era

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@elwood @evil_dallas @Tennesseine Nah, it's people who think in black & white terms

Who lies *more*? Who's *more* corrupt?

Those are the real types of questions being asked

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@Kasparov63 @ellim992 Has anyone compiled a list of, or info on, (social) media networks that have been bought out, taken over, consolidated, etc by right wing oligarchs since Trump's 2016 win?

I mean, I'm familiar with a bunch post-pandemic (2021-2023), but it would be nice to see some data/studies

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@Canaansdad1987 The thing that makes no sense to me is Trump *wouldn't* cheat (or at least try)

He was indicted for fraud during the 2016, executed HUGE fraud/schemes/etc for 2020 while WILDLY accusing the other side for mass cover, learned how to game the voting & legal system... then STOPPED?

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@jimstewartson @sandibachom So get some hand counts of ballots done. Shouldn't be unreasonable or hard to do

Choose a few counties that seem "off" the most -- preferably ones with effective bomb threats -- and go to work QUICKLY

[Dark Viserion @DarkViserion]

@HadleyGenevieve @carolecadwalla That's a nice tirade, but the premise is off. Censoring isn't the only counter, yet we regularly see "arbiter of truth" etc as if it is

What's wrong with education? Bring civics back. Teach logical fallacies or how to spot tactics. I'm down for fighting it on ALL sides. Are you?
