Silly propogandist, when you'll lie about something from the first grade, you'll lie about anything.

You consistently repeat the fable that Trump is an honest man who puts anything ahead of his own interests.

Propaganda isn't just getting people to believe lies; it's about changing the way people think about themselves and the world. Polarization is just the beginning.

Here's a lesson on use of right-wing authoritarian tactics. Polarization brings survivalism: "it's our way or the apocalypse." Stoke fear w/triggering keywords to create appetite for authoritarian rule. Make violence - say, Jan 6- into patriotic act to "save the nation."

The Oathkeepers leader schmoozing with the GOP establishment at CPAC tells everything you need to know about the state of the Republican Party today.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
