    What media do the Koch brothers own? One of them is dead by the way. What media the NY Times?

    I asked for an example, I meant similar to what the Atlantic did. So the Koch brothers used some media they do not own to push some lie about a democrat candidate just before an election? When? What media?

    Democrats can spread their lies through media. Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post but complained about a rich person buying Twitter.

    Well the Democrats always assume they will remain in power for eternity which is why they have such freak outs when they lose. Part of their dogma is that the arc of history bends towards Democrats so when that doesn't happen...cognitive dissonance.

    So if Republicans ever get the White House again...

    You dems comfortable having a DHS disinformation board with a DeSantis administration for 8 years? What if he tossed that chick bimbo out and replaced her with Don Jr.?

    You people are so disingenuous. Had Trump did this you would have screamed bloody murder and instantly compared him to Hitler.

    But Biden is the great senile diaper man who can oppress his fellow Americans. Is this what the MSM meant when they said the adults are running things now? Trump never did anything like this.

    Most tyrants don't realize they're being tyrannical. Instead, most tyrants think their actions are for good causes like defeating the presidency of Trump, demonizing Putin or having a watchdog over Putin like the current government of Ukraine.:roll:

    No, you were very specific. You said US politicians during Iraq, Afghanistan, and Ukraine are Tyrants. So now that we've narrowed down which politicians (still a very large group) of US politicians are tyrants, how exactly are they tyrannical? What tyrannical actions are you referring to?

    You'd think something like this would be so obvious that even 7 billion blind people could see it.

    Sad thing is that they probably DO see it but are ignoring it for now. And if someone they oppose does end up getting into power they'll then do a 180 and cry HITLER!!!! As if it wasn't them that ignored/agreed with/supported in the first place.

    This "Disinformation Governance Board" NEEDS to go. Right now. Not 3 years from now when they suddenly have a problem with it. NOW.

    We'll see how things work with a different republican candidate. Trump was and is the justification for anything and everything they do. We see it on this board. The Atlantic has the right to attribute any unsourced quotes they wish on Trump because he is evil!

    This is very true. If democrats think someone like Trump who constantly blasted the media would not use this against the media in some form is mistaken. This is not a left or right issue. This is scary for both sides. Biden likewise is no friend of free speech or private business rights. He once suggested, during his so far short time as president, that if someone is banned from one social media site they should be banned from them all.

    The making of this department should not be underestimated

    I don't have the time to list every tyrannical decision and action within the G.W. Bush, the BO and Biden Administrations, for examples, so I left you with a general list to describe tyranny. An addendum to my general list of tyranny is advocating for the US military and US government to be a watchdog over the entire world. That's how we were quagmired in Viet Nam, Iraq, Afghanistan and Ukraine for examples.

    But yet you know that Hunters laptop story was touted as disinformation by the very person overseeing this endeavor. And now...after the election is over...we find that it's true and there was no basis to label it as "dis/mis information.

    Does that not give you a clue of its nature? Do you need a charter to figure things out?

    OK you are apparently going off on some weird tangent that has nothing to do with this thread. I can only suggest you start a thread about Bush Tyranny, although if you search history, you may find there are already plenty.

    You are correct.

    They will do this, no senate confirmation is necessary, and Congress granted the president the authority to set up executive agencies without Congressional oversight, in 1932 (I think Congress should end this grant of derived authority).

    Dems are losing Hispanic support and they think that by controlling the news available to them that they will be shielded from what they view as corrupting narratives that are promoting wrong think.

    His Truth Minister's comment on Musk buying Twitter:

    "...and I shudder to think about if free speech absolutists were taking over more platforms..."

    Their efforts to date are failing to stop the bleeding of support from what they call "People of Color" and they are determined to reverse that, and to reverse it by doubling and tripling down in narrative control.

    They do love it .. not some joke or application of fallacious label -- and don't think Red gets off the hook either , cause they don't not by any stretch .. "BUT" - and this is the reason I have "Changed" -( and publicly so .. never have I hid my allegence and why) - Blue has fallen off the turnip truck .. and don't even try to hide it .. and on the contrary .. will defend it.

    A common defense " Nothing like Hitler" -- meaning Not rounding up Jews into Gas Chambers .. but ok to be like Hitler in every other way. Targeting a certain group that disagrees with "The collective" narrative du jour .. .. using propaganda to target demonize these people as "Unclean" - paint them with a yellow start - restrict movement and freedom .. take away livelihood /job, seize bank accounts, and last but not least .. forced experimental medical treatment.

    but yeah .. not gassing Jews yet .. ignoring the whole point of the exercize which is to nip these things in the bud before we get there.

    If you don't know any eastern Europeans .. Serbia, Romania, Poland and so on .. "Find One" that lived in the commie era ... To a person they will tell you ... "This is exactly like back home" .. These are the majority of the people out there protesting .. putting personal security on the line .. no sitting on the couch.

    Had one proclaim the other day that will force compliance with Gov't through banking - Biden wants any transaction over 600 dollars tracked ...submitted into the "Ministry of Truth" and "Ministry of Pleasure" ..

    The People must be forced to conform to the Gov'ts every whim .. no exceptions .. no dissent allowed .. no protest.. no speech contrary to Gov't narrative du jour ... and we must increase this power at every turn . because "Gov't never goes bad" .. never will they use this power against us.... only Good is Gov't .. like God .. and like God we must worship.

    You better keep your opinions to yourself unless you want the government taking action against you, which is what is happening here in FL. Same goes for teachers and private businesses and social media.

    The answer to everything is "Sir yes sir".

    Authoritarian? Hell yes.

    I was responding to this:

    And yes, the talking heads on FOX news lie to their audience every day, just as CNN and MSNBC do. Tucker Carlson admitted as much in open court.

    Whon as Florida censored? Disney is perfectly free to say and promote anything it wants including the sexual mutilation of young children and violating the rights of parents.

    I don't even want it and i'm famously the most pro-fascist poster on the board. I just think things like this always backfire, raises tensions and is just not worth it. If you want people to believe a certain way politically: Succeed. Success is the breath of all political movements and it's the sustainer of them as well. Looking back at the longest running political organizations and countries,the common denominator is that the average citizen(or at least, the majority of those wielding voting or approval power) were satiated to a large degree and that's how those governments come to be and stay in power.

    Napoleon Bontaparte didn't exactly stomp his foot on the French sister republics. He gave them a constitution, something to govern themselves over and watched as they became part of his French Empire. Fulfilling people's needs= you gain power in politics. Stupid and simple.

    Everyone is perfectly free to do whatever they want, as long as they remember that the government might take action against you. Sometimes they'll even put you to death for the things you did. Disney did what they did and the government is attacking them. In Russia you are free to criticize the war in Ukraine, but it might cost you 15 yrs in prison. Its very unfortunate FL is on the same path when it comes to authoritarian government.

    Fun with words!: Being required to pay the same taxes as everyone else is "authoritarian".

    Disney has the right to operate as their own country within the state of Florida? Taking away their privileges is not authoritarian.

    Why do you dems worship gigantic conglomerates and the mega rich? Because they are libos? Because they help get your senile pos candidate elected?

    Real democracy there. Some mega rich oligarchs who have a net worth equal to a million ordinary Americans helping democrats push sex education on 5 year olds. :roll:

    I'm not the one claiming that these guys are planning the next Holocaust or are outlawing the 1st Amendment. I see no evidence that they are. When I ask for evidence that they are, your side freaks the **** out about having to provide evidence for looney Alex Jones conspiracy theories.

    If it's so dastardly, then maybe you can be an honest man and provide any evidence that this is what they have planned. It isn't up to me to disprove bull **** that you have pulled out of your ass. Your feverish, victim narrative, factless fantasies are meaningless. Come back when you have evidence. Your preference for feelings over facts will not change my preference for the opposite.

    Democrats against democracy! Bill Maher is so full of it.

    The duly elected legislature of Florida passes a law that the majority of people in Florida want. A duly elected governor signs that bill into law.

    According to the dems a company whose headquarters is 3000 miles away should have veto power over that law. Real democracy there.
