Brace yourself for a massive disinformation campaign against Harris as soon as they recover from the initial shock. Don't buy into any crap you see about her going forward. Eat no for breakfast.
I already saw a photoshopped picture of her hugging Epstein. It was her hugging her husband with Epstein's head
Took 1 google search to debunk. But morons on FB shared it anyway.
We should combat this by Photoshopping her head on Trump's body with already well establish photos of trump/Epstein
Brilliant
Sometimes I pump out pure genius, what can I say
I know reddit was full of ask-and-you-shall-receive requests like this, and I'm not expecting it here on Lemmy - but does anyone on Lemmy have the ability to manifest this??
We could tag it with "I'm Kamala Harris and this is a ridiculous message"
I hope there will be an investigation on how much foreign influence there is in this election. So much of the fake news and trash social media posts are Putin’s playbook. The attack on Ukraine isn’t the only war he’s trying to fight
My brother is ostensibly a liberal Democrat but he somehow believes that Ukraine is run by literal Nazis and that Putin (a "good guy") was in the right to invade it. It's literally just Russian propaganda but he accepts it as objective truth - he gets all of his political "information" from TikTok and podcasts. He also believes that all bad acts in the world are committed by the CIA and that Putin was installed by the CIA (which of course paradoxically means he's a bad person), although he admitted he has no sources for that one.
It's amazing how social media really allows the bullshit pipeline to be carefully tailored to each individual's tastes, as opposed to the one-size-fits-all bullshit pipeline that traditional mass media was limited to.
Good luck, when the UK ran an investigation into russian influence on our elections they just never made the results public despite repeated promises too.
Ironic when you think about how many of Epstein's friends were leaders of nations and well known academics.
Pretty weird considering we know a certain presidential candidate who was actually friends with him lol
I've been braced since 1980.
They will do their silly ignorant memes, but they’ll also amplify the kind of valid criticism of her that left leaning voters raise themselves. That’s harder to handle, because there is a lot of valid criticism.
It’s still hugely important to vote against Christian fascists, but it doesn’t feel good to do when you don’t like the person you’re voting for. Conservatives will amplify that sentiment to get left leaning people to not vote or to vote 3rd party.
