Before DEI it was WOKE, SOCIALISM, etc.. Any term that depicts a progressive, critical thinking approach to life is quickly “labeled” as “bad for America” for the lazy weak minded MAGA crowd to spew as propaganda. Never considering its true meaning.

"The incoherence of the admin's communication suggests what happens next in Venezuela will be an unfolding series of screwups. If these clowns can’t even get the American public to support a war, do we really think they’ll be able to manage an infinitely more difficult task of nation-building?"
Trump's Venezuela adventure is already a propaganda disaster
Nobody is buying it, and we don't even know what they're trying to sell.

Wake up Congress!! All of this WAR talk, and taking over this hemisphere, comes from Putin. We’re just his stepping stone, and he needs his puppet, Trump, to accomplish this.

In a nation that wasn't conditioned to accept right-wing corruption, Trump's use of his own social media platform for major government announcements would be seen correctly as a shameful monetization of the presidency.

THREAD: Viral misinformation on US capture of Nicolas Maduro - 4 January
This video, shared by Alex Jones and others, falsely claims to show millions of Venezuelans in Caracas celebrating Maduro's capture.
In fact, it shows anti-Maduro protests in July 2024 over a highly disputed election.

What is just crazy about this, aside from the need for this statement at all, is that Greenland already IS in the US sphere of influence. It's far cheaper for the US, in material, security, and reputational terms, to have Denmark continue administering Greenland and work within NATO on security.
