Since my followers are growing, I’m reintroducing myself.

My main focus here is on Propaganda, Propaganda Delivery Networks, and Counter Propaganda (how we fight back 👊).

This is my thread of threads, which will remain pinned on my timeline for easy access and reference.

First, a primer:

🧵 I think it’s time for a little history lesson… about echo chambers and how they are used to control the people, specifically.

We simply need to look at Hitler’s regime, and in this case… it was as simple as a cheap radio. exhibitions.ushmm.org/propaganda/g...
German Radio: The People’s Receiver - State of Deception: The Power of Nazi Propaganda - United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
The Nazi’s propaganda ministry and the German radio industry heavily promoted the People’s Receiver. Not surprisingly, sales soared, as did radio listenership.

I’m an artist, so I understand the power of images… especially simple images… and most importantly, amusing images.

Thx for the shout out.

A speaker w/ a Dr Heather Cox Richardson recently reminded me that fascist regimes rely on fear. Humor is a much more powerful tool than many realize. It is not a waste of time. It is a powerful tool against oppression.

When advanced imaging is deemed necessary that means something showed up on preliminary imaging… something not good.

Portland Frogman used “spooky” hands and hip thrusts to make ICE agents retreat. Under that costume are huge muscles, watch video. An ICE asshole sprayed pepper spray into the air vent but Frogman continued in his costume another hour. Hero #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

Actually, it’s probably true. She has praised trump before.

The people who run this camp should be indicted for criminal negligence and reckless endangerment.

The camp should be closed, confiscated, and turned into a memorial park.

The idea that they could simply reopen after this is utterly ridiculous.

What are we doing here?

Sorry, is there a question here?

27 children died.

Close the goddam camps if you can’t comply with safety measures.

This isn’t the first time flash flooding in this zone has killed campers, just the most well known with the highest death toll.

And the timing of his current meltdown is due to the upcoming mars/jupiter/Saturn grand trine in about two weeks… this is a precursor to that larger energy next summer. We’ll probably see him crash out for the next few weeks, then regain some composure, then a slow steady slide into oblivion.

It won’t matter at this point. I think he got some bad news at Walter Reed this morning… he’s now a man who thinks he’s a god, facing mortality. He’ll destroy everything.

Actually, this is a fantastic idea… for protesters… Portland protesters have effectively made ICE look like idiots by doing this.

I think everyone should do it.

We’re at the point where trump will begin to really unravel quickly.

It will be incredible to watch, and extremely dangerous at the same time.

Prepare yourself, because you ain’t seen nothing yet.

The next 6-9 months will be lit… like on fire… like an inferno raging out of control.

There are only a few reasons to do this… and they’re all bad.

Is trump trying to find an Air Force that he can use to bomb American cities?

That’s the question.

I’m gonna just go out on a limb and say… putting 2 and 2 together… he’s too ill to meet with Xi.

“Semi annual physicals” aren’t normal… he saw the doctors this morning and got some bad news… and this screed is simply cover.

That’s my take.
