Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.
The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

What a great story. Wow. 🥹
Eight years ago, a budding scientist gave a commercial airline pilot a gift that would link the two for life.
Since then, they'd met in person and linked up on social media. But when she boarded a flight a week ago, she didn't expect to see him.
Then an announcement came over the PA system.

This is the new reality of democracy. Election denialism isn’t going away nor is voter suppression. Litigation is a feature, not an exception of modern elections. If we are to be successful at winning elections and preserving democracy, that is the lesson we must learn and carry forward.
The Most Litigated Election Ever
From Marc | Despite the sharp increase in litigation, pro-voting forces continued to win, notching three times as many victories as losses.

In elementary school, my teacher told my mother I was “unteachable.” I was behind in every subject, including reading. Then I found this one book in the school library and connected with it, reading it hundreds of times. I made a career in reading, writing, and editing.That’s what a book can do.

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids.
