Spread the propaganda as far and wide as you can, friend. But one day you’ll get tired of being lied to. Count on it.

Survivor of an FBI entrapment case, more like it. It was planned by paid FBI informants. More deep state crooks elevated by deep state dupes.

Could you explain how misinformation works? Is it supposed to be picked up by bots? Is it supposed to become part of a cloud of misinformation so that people don't trust anything anymore?

It doesn’t work. Those with some modicum of governing power use the phrase as an excuse to censor information, which does work. But it does have some technical use insofar as it distinguishes between various types of information, for instance false info, knowingly false info with intent to mislead, and so on.

That’s a good take, thanks.

I’m just kidding, frank. What do you think about Biden’s proposal?

It means you’re approaching stalker territory.

Hopefully it’s not a fatal attraction.

You can’t keep me out of your head, can’t you?

The reason a quality like “color” doesn't extend beyond the object is because it is a quality of the object, not the mind. The changes in color within objects and the differences between them are due to changes in the objects themselves, like when a banana turns green to yellow as the chlorophyll breaks down.

President Harris and her puppet Biden calls for anti-constitutional reforms to the Supreme Court, which appears to be the last line of defense against their authoritarian rule.

Everyone already forgets the historic month of July: the unprecedented palace coup by Obama Inc. and the attempted assassination of their folk devil, president Trump. It’s already back to “Trump said…” before the month is even out.

Still can’t tell me what he did wrong?

You’re the second post.

So do you think Trump’s comments signal that he will end elections?

But refuting plain nonsense does equate to correcting the record. One thing you cannot do is defend the nonsense with lies any longer. This whole thread is a compendium of your work, your disinterestedness. So it might be best to avoid bringing up disinfo.

Disinterested? You get miffed and insulting when anyone corrects the record, but when they lie and spread disinfo it’s dead silence. Just weird priorities, that’s all.

Get angry when I do it, dead silence when others do. You’re in good company.

Here's the new hoax, right on time.

Trump faces backlash for ‘in four years, you don’t have to vote again’ remark

Some Democrats say his comments, directed at a Christian audience, signaled his plans to be a dictator. His campaign says he was talking about ‘uniting’ the country, and experts point to his ‘deliberately ambiguous’ speaking style.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/07/27/trump-faces-backlash-four-years-you-dont-have-vote-again-remark/

What's missing is some context, namely, the speech itself. His scolding of Christians for their low voter turnout makes his later comment make sense, and his enemies imaginations looks stupid.

And by the way, Christians have to vote. You know, I don't want to scold you. But do you know that Christians do not vote proportionately? They don't vote like they should. They're not big voters. You know, who else aren't voters? The NRA endorsed me very powerfully strongest endorsement. They can give National Rifle Association people that own guns and rifles are not big voters. They have to vote if you don't vote, we're not going to win the election. If you do vote, we're going to win in a landslide. Too big to rig, we're going to win in a landslide. But Christians, you know, you'll go to church every Sunday and pastor Paula White and all of the people I understand they're doing lock boxes in churches where people don't even have to go to vote. They can now vote in church. And if you do that, we're going to win by numbers that nobody's ever seen before. You know, you have tremendous power but you just don't know that, but you have to use that power. Christians are a group that's known not to vote very much. You have to go out at least this election. Just give us and get us into that beautiful white house vote for your congressmen and women vote for your senators. We will change this country for the better this country will be great again, like never before you've got to vote and I've said it before and I'll say it again.

But the anti-Trump movement is going back to the tried and true Live Action Role-play tactics, so with their activism they can pretend they are saving democracy, looking for that straight up dopamine hit. And this after their party removed the primary winner and installed their own candidate, so it's a double deceit.

“the object for which a thing exists, its end, is its chief good”

Aristot. Pol. 1.1252b

He applies this to horses, a household, the state, as much as human beings.

If the object for which a thing exists, its end, is its chief good, it follows that if its end is evil, that is its chief good.

I wonder if Vance, at the behest of the donor class and GOP apparatchiks, will pull a coup on him and take over his campaign.

I’m not sure any transfer could be called arbitrary save for throwing a bunch of money in the air and letting anyone pick it up.

No, whatever you say—weird speculation derived from…Anthony Scarammuci?

So no one has actually talked about replacing him.

Trump is a tribe. You heard it here first.

If you need someone to talk to, let me know. You’re not alone.

What talk?

I’ve been doing the same thing for years, but now it’s entertaining. Now you feel the need to fake laugh about it for some reason. Is something wrong, Benkei?

The cracks are emerging. That feeling in your brain is the cognitive dissonance. It’s when two contradictory values collide. You know what’s going on is wrong but you don’t want to admit it because it makes your tribe look bad, so naturally, you try to deflect it on someone else. But that’s your body telling you to quit lying. The stress of it all is too much. It isn’t healthy. It’s ok to let it go.

I know they’re going to win the election. The rigging and cheating has already begun. Not a single person has voted for Harris and she’s already the nominee.

KKKamala gets anointed in brilliant fashion.

Media is all in.

They’re starting to capitalize the Party! Truly Orwellian times.

I was kind of hoping Biden would take a stand from the Oval Office and let his voters and constituents know that he is not just some weak, husk of a human being, and push back against The Party. But no; as his last act of cowardice and corruption and lies, he reminds everyone who he has always been, and submits to the will of his party elites and donors. Now we have to pretend he is running the country for the next six months.

A sign of things to come in Biden’s little presser tonight. Biden didn’t step down for health reasons.

No answer, then?

The evasion is only a sign that you do not want to answer, but I suspect it is to hide a contradiction. The dissonance you feel occurs when two contradictory values are colliding, and I suspect these values are your love of power and party versus your sense of justice. In order to rid yourself of that dissonance you need to align them, either by ridding yourself of one of them, or to continue lying to yourself. The change will occur, but I hope it benefits your sense of justice more than your love of power and party. You only really need one of them.

I didn’t say they should. I’ve never imposed any rules. Why do you think it is ok to give someone power based on their race and gender?

I am outraged that people are given power based on race and gender, yes. You’re not?

I have a conscience. What does yours say about giving people power on the basis of their race and gender?

You don’t care about a race and gender-based selection process in politics?

Someone remarked about the similarities between the upcoming DNC convention and the 1968 one.

Back then Johnson backed out of the race, supposedly due to his poor showing in the primaries. The assassination of potential candidate RFK had left supporters disillusioned with the prospects. Given the recent statement of BLM’s opposition to the way Harris was coronated, against their democratic principles, can we expect to see some fireworks at the convention like they had in 1968?

For epistemology, sure, the knowledge of a thing requires process and relation. But being does not require our knowledge of it, and metaphysics is not epistemology.

Who says Christian family values aren't identity politics?

I'm not sure. But we don't champion people because of their race and gender, and for the same reason we don't disparage them on the same grounds.
