Outstanding thread…

To build on this, my personal belief is most counter-disinformation work fails to address the fundamental issues that lead to the creation of disinformation, and generally misunderstands the source of disinformation in the first place.

For decades, more Republicans voted by mail than Democrats

Then, in 2020 Democrats flocked to mail voting as a safety precaution during the pandemic

Now Republicans don't like mail voting

Republicans just don't like any method of voting used by Democrats

@michaeldweiss Like Lincoln when he wrote in 1855 that he in a way prefers to our Know Nothings "some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty--Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy."

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

Thinking of the Republicans' descent into a Know-Nothing Party led me to look again at Lincoln's July 10, 1858, remarks on the equal right of immigrants to consider themselves "blood of the blood, and flesh of the flesh" of the authors of the Declaration.

Republicans are anti-democratic, so a defense of democracy is inevitably a condemnation of the GOP. The disease of whataboutism, false equivalence and cluelessness about the threat to democracy continues to plague too many news outlets.

@MJ_Busta For sure. Qué ha cambiado? Seems to me the biggest change has been the radicalization of the GOP (and the fact that the media bubble most of them live in has chosen to monetize it).

@razibkhan This was brilliant! Thank you Razib.

“It is a terrible damage that they are causing to our country. I wish it were just the big lie… it’s more than that.” Former GOP Sen. John Danforth slams efforts by pro-Trump politicians and conservative media to undermine election integrity

.@Liz_Cheney: "I will never put party above my duty to the Constitution. I swore an oath under God and I will abide by that oath. I won't say something that I know is wrong, simply to earn the votes of people, to earn political support."

Ponder this, folks: These stunning Trump revelations are not seen by most GOP leaders as disqualifying, whether in a party leader or 2024 nominee.

As a result, Judge Luttig tells me, he fears the US faces a period of "protracted democratic instability."

Doctor who treated Uvalde victims recalls "two children whose bodies had been pulverized by bullets fired at them, decapitated, whose flesh had been [so] ripped apart, that the only clue as to their identities was the blood-spattered cartoon clothes still clinging to them."

This thread!!!!!

I've mentioned this before but Russia's decision to self-immolate as a great power makes the conversation about what NATO forced Russia to do altogether absurd.

@olgatokariuk Isn’t Christian love about more than turning the other cheek? Is it not also a love for Justice? Does it not also demand of us that we come to the defense of the victim, the we denounce the aggressor?

[Carlos A. Diez, MAI, CCIM 🇺🇦 @crevaluation]

@olgatokariuk Agreed! The time for reconciliation will come. But there is MUCH to do before. Starting with everything that can be done to stop the rape!
