This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.

I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.

Many of the propagandists of Autocracy, Inc., have learned from the mistakes of the twentieth century. They don’t offer their fellow citizens a vision of utopia, and they don’t inspire them to build a better world. Instead, they teach people to be cynical and passive, because there is no better world to build. Their goal is to persuade people to mind their own business, stay out of politics, and never hope for a democratic alternative: Our state may be corrupt, but everyone else is corrupt too. You may not like our leader, but the others are worse. You may not like our society, but at least we are strong and the democratic world is weak, degenerate, divided, dying.

Why do people buy pizza with EBT?

Because cauliflower is five dollars a head and you can buy five pizzas with the same money.

It’s not that folks don’t want to be healthy. They can’t afford to be healthy.

In the past month, a serial child rapist has murdered 100 people in the Caribbean, destroyed the East Wing of the White House, neutralized our Congress, & stolen food from 20% of American children.

We pay him, house him, drive him, fly him, and pay for his bodyguards.

"'It’s killing the business,' the manager said. The manager noted that Home Depot is emphasizing “free delivery for contractors so they don’t have to risk themselves”—a sign of how the company has had to adjust."

SCOOP: Immigration Groups Weigh Boycott of Home Depot

As ICE raids target the home-improvement chain, what does the company owe its customers and the immigrants who do work for them?

Also reform the Customs & Border Patrol. They act like the old wild, wild, sheriffs, especially with Greg Bovino in charge. He needs to be arrested for the extreme tactics that he is using on American citizens.

I have been saying this about the new ICE THUGS for months now. They are in way too deep with the DJT IMMIGRATION DOCTRINE. They are too comfortable with the brutality aspect as they know there will never be consequences as long as DT is in the WH.

People need to make copies of everything including the Constitution. This regime is trying to erase any history, documents, pictures or anything that they don't like in general.

All federal court records, including those for the January 6 cases, are part of the permanent court record and are accessible to the public and attorneys via the PACER system. Could democratic attorneys get copies of the 1500+ J6er’s past convictions and J6 convictions, before they are gone?

It’s time for a congressional hearing to find out what % of ICE recruits come from J6 participant ranks as well as Oath Keepers & Proud Boys. Americans need to know this now + we need an ombudsman for oversight over ICE reinstated. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

From MeidasTouch Legal AF: The Convicted FElon DOJ is now deleting court documents on J6 terrorists who have been in trouble with law repeatedly. The DOJ was caught when a judge noticed a document missing on a J6'er, who wanted to bomb Obama's home & was convicted for it. I bet these are ICE now.
