Okay, y'all. Now we are in the zone of where we have to be aware of the fuckery. We know the GOP is actually trying to pull in their bags of tricks to suppress the vote. Don't be the willing mule to pass their propaganda around. The Corporate media has been the willing mules.

It's because they're down horrendous for ratings. It's not people who know better who they're targeting. They're targeting people who usually don't read/watch more than one source, and preying on those whom are medically anxious, traumatized, and/or depressed.

This pisses me off since the doom porn is pretty prevalent. Also some of us here on Spoutible are guilty of echoing (sharing) and Quote Spouting said doom porn. This will hurt us in the longest run. The best we can do is to re-learn media literacy.

Also we must actually make sure that we don't fall for the coordinated DARVO that is going on right now. @cbouzy has shared a post with the doom porn, and he's correct. This is not coincidental. this is a psyop.

We cannot depend on the corpo press to report on just more than the five things they report on. That is we must go for good indie sources to make sure that there's truthful reporting. Because a lot of corpo media (and some indie sources) ten to both-sides an issue.

Also, they tend to play into people's anxiety, trauma, and fears. It's the same with the polling. Most of us here decided we're going to reject the polling, and make sure people get to the polls. This is will not be the only thing that will have an impact.

As such, I would implore you not to share dubious stories. If you have to fact-check it, then you have to do it with gusto. November 5th will be here before you know it, and we must make sure we're on guard for all the dirty tricks from not only the GOP, but 5th Columnist Dem/Indies.
