I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

It's how propaganda works: accuse others of what you are doing. A great way to steal an election is by accusing the other side of stealing it and then doing exactly what you accuse the other side of doing. #democracy

It looks like a coordinated attack. My followers list is completely spammed with fake accounts, rendering it almost unusable. I am sure that is its purpose. I have been blocking them but it is taking up more of my time everyday.
