And the way our democracies work means the liars seeking political power don't even need a majority to believe them, they merely need to control, or preferably own, enough mass media and to know how to abuse an easily corruptible electoral system.

Then once in power, the bamboozle becomes the truth

Russell Vought is one of the most dangerous men in Trump's admin - a fully paid up cult member, who is also competent. He's busy firing 1000s of federal workers based on conspiracy theories, all while the New York Times praises him as an ordinary "small state conservative"

I wonder if there'll come a point when someone on the Hard Right tells us that 'Priti Patel can only be properly integrated when she changes her name to a more Anglo-Saxon one like Petra Paterson... a bit like the Jews did in the good old days.'

The Washington Post documented 30,573 false or misleading claims made by Trump during his first term. An average of about 21 per day.

Despite Trump vomiting a deluge of daily lies since returning to office in January, no one appears to be bothering to keep a running total.

If you're going to make a dramatic mini-series claiming to be the "true story" of the serial killer Ed Gein, you really should not be able to fill it with conjecture and murderous events so clearly false that the producers would have to claim "no contest" in a defamation trial.

The story of social media in the last few years is not one of a self-righteous liberal flounce, but of fragmentation: network effects are a thing, and if most of the people you like to talk to switch platforms, there feels little point in remaining behind. If we have lost influence, that's at least partly down to the government's reluctance to use its convening power to reshape the information environment, and its odd commitment to a site owned by someone who wants Keir Starmer in prison.

Also this…
Why stay in an environment that wants to do everything it can to undermine you… one which threatens democracy itself with its distorting algorithms, its conspiracy theories and its disinformation… ?

I'm old enough to remember the National Front and I honestly see no difference between the divisive rhetoric being spouted by the likes of Jenrick and the NF propaganda of the late 70s and early 80s.

Any One Nation Tories still left in the party should be ashamed of their own silence.

Shame matters far less to Tories than power and party loyalty. They despatched shame when they backed Johnson, even as he threatened and kicked out their allies. They can’t remember what shame should feel like any more.

β€œI’m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. You’re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrick”

Cathartic anger at flag-flying racism.

Diane Keaton was a true Californian. She was a self-described oddball, uniquely stylish, deeply creative, funny, and an acting legend who could steal the screen in comic and dramatic roles alike. She was in a class all her own, an icon.

I keep seeing this get posted. The AZ electors were charged a year and a half ago. The AZ Superior Court ENDED the case five months ago. The AZ AG will have to appeal to the AZ Supreme Court or go back and start again with a grand jury. Please stop sharing this.

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

β€˜Brummies united against racism’: poster campaign takes on the far right A message of neighbourly solidarity is thriving in Birmingham against a backdrop of racist intimidation When Mus unfurled the leaflet lying on her driveway, she was left shocked, angry and upset. β€œWhite Britons are already a minority in London … it is clear that if these trends continue white people will become a minority in Britain,” it read. The leaflet, written by a far-right group, was distributed along her street three years ago in Moseley, a leafy suburb of Birmingham. It went on to blame NHS waiting lists, a shortage of social housing and even traffic on β€œthe rising population”. Continue reading...
