    Ministry of Truth.

    This is bad.
    It’s also so obvious I’d consider it a show of power. A threat.

    Right wing Europeans are continually taking notes of what can be done. And they are all forming an Internationale.
    Its so fucking bad.

      We need to shut down fascists by disrupting their conferences and communications, and dividing them by disparaging the evangelists’ support for Trump as betraying Christian values (because Trump is atheist), and by disparaging the fascists’ support for evangelists as betraying the state values (in that the church doesn’t listen to fascism), and so on. Divide and rule.

      Communists need to have more children than the fascists.

    There’s a West Point study that had it’s link changed so that news articles referencing it got a 404 error. It still exists, but it has to be searched for directly to be found.

    If anyone wants to see it.

    Edit: y’know what, here‘s more just in case anyone wants them before they disappear.

    Well, “study” is already such a radical-left, woke concept! Like all those “studies” about vaccines. True MAGA Patriots go by gut feeling and by other things that are also produced in the guts!

      You know if we actually wanted to get rid of these people it would be really easy. All we have to do is release some deadly but preventable disease. Then encourage everyone to get vaccines.

      The problem with covid is that it wasn’t really deadly for most people. So they got sick and were probably miserable but they never learnt their lesson.

        A friend of mine, always with a non optimal immune system, had planned a wedding anniversary vacation to Mexico in 2009 but refused to get a shot against the Mexican Flu…

        Within a week of his vacation he got infected with the Mexican Flu, which by then was a pandemic… (the western world almost forgot about this one) He quickly was transported to an ER in his home city, tubes sticking out of him everywhere, no one allowed to visit him beyond the airlock… Eventually he recovered but it took at least a year to feel sort of healthy. Claimed he regretted not getting the H1N1 (Mexican Flu) vaccine.

        He got a flu-shot a year after, but after the 2nd year he refused “if I get one I get a stuffed nose for a full month”.
        When I reminded him of not learning a lesson from the Mexican Flu, he claimed it wasn’t that bad…
        Almost had no proper recollection of being in emergency care with tubing all over his body…

        Year 5 after his H1N1 adventure he had been without flu shots for a while, got another flu, was badly ill for 6 weeks, lost his job because of it… Tried to convince himself it was a younger worker who stole his job…

        We broke contact after a while where it was clear he was willfully spiraling downward into a black hole of denial and blaming others.

        So, yeah, folks like that do not learn a lesson, not even if they end up very ill and it having lasting effects on their life, there is a pressing need to find another person to lay blame on.

      P values are woke. The IRB is the deep state. Data is biased for lefties.

      If they knew what any of those things were they’d say it.

    Corrected text:

    “Following Chork getting what he deserved, and the Trump terrorist regime’s threat to go after a demented fiction, a study showing most domestic terrorism being far-right, was censored.”

    That’s so perfectly typicsl for the right.

    It’s really very simple - if the evidence shows that one of their beliefs is wrong, then their principles dictate that they have no choice but to… bury the evidence.

      Not solely a right tactic. You also see this with product studies sponsored by big corporations.

        Sort of.

        I mean - yes - corporations do it, but for them it’s a simple business strategy. It’s not a matter of whether they want to believe it or not - it’s just that that information getting out would hurt their profits and nothing matters more than their profits.

        But for right-wingers, it’s some sort of weird cognitively dissonant delusional dogma thing - like if they can successfully hide the evidence to the contrary, that’ll somehow make their beliefs actually true. They’ll be able to face the new day, confident that their beliefs are true, because after all, nobody can prove otherwise, right?

          I think there are those people for sure, but this instance seems more in line with what the corporations are doing. I doubt the DOJ and the people responsible for this decision care one way or the other about the reality of the situation. They care about what hurts their “profits” which in this case isn’t money so much as political capital.

      Militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States. In fact, the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism. Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists, including 227 events that took more than 520 lives.[1] In this same period, far-left extremists committed 42 ideologically motivated attacks that took 78 lives.[2] A recent threat assessment by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security concluded that domestic violent extremists are an acute threat and highlighted a probability that COVID-19 pandemic-related stressors, long-standing ideological grievances related to immigration, and narratives surrounding electoral fraud will continue to serve as a justification for violent actions.[3]
