Trump: "It's too much liquid. Too many different things are going into that baby at too big a number. The size of this thing when you look at it. It's like 80 different vaccines and beyond vaccines."

From Twitter/X to FB to TikTok to Washington Post to CBS. Any opposition to this fascist project needs to focus, in part, on building and/or securing information infrastructure to ensure channels of dissent exist & remain available. The Dems have taken this infrastructure for granted. It’s gone.

Exploiting our emotions in order to influence, manipulate and radicalize is a tale as old as time, y'all. The difference now is the reach these strategies have thanks to the tech we use.

TL;DR: Librarians, information literacy and media mindfulness are more important than ever.
