  1. Appropriating the death count: Manufacturing consent for an attack on Iran | Protests | Al Jazeera
    aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/1/

    "Unverified protest death toll estimates have been widely circulated, preparing public opinion for military intervention and downplaying the genocide in Gaza."

  2. Violence gives Trump exactly what he wants: pretext. A blank check for repression, surveillance and total control. It does not threaten his power. It authorizes it. Do not take the bait! #StateViolence #ManufacturedConsent #AuthoritarianPlaybook #ReichstagFire #PassiveResistance

  3. War in Venezuela, Brought to You By the Same People Who Lied Us Into Iraq

    Washington is making big claims to make the case for U.S. intervention. We’ve heard all these arguments before.

    I got a 4-page flyer from my Conservative MP, explaining how crime was out of control and we needed more cops and heavier sentences.

    With a reply-paid "questionnaire" asking if I agreed with everything.

  5. So it's not going to be a "fire", but a "war" started by Israel, that Donald Hitler uses as his tool for taking full control?

  6. I look at US resistance celebrating the Tesla take down awaiting the default of twitter loans and all I can think of is that Musk has already switched from the Tesla meme stock to his AI grok meme stock to secure the loan.

    His AI may achieve more w/ all the government data the rest of US based AI can not. It needs to be seen, if Musk can do what Mercer accomplished with Cambridge Analytica. I have my doubts.

    And because of this it is all the more important to have a diverse media/journalism landscape and transparencies of allegiance and a commitment to facts and clarification of when/what is an opinion.

    #Terrorism is a tactic used in Assymetrical Warfare

    Every world leader knows how it works & why, bc Franz Fanon explained it decades ago

    World leaders pretend they DON'T know they're doing exactly what guerrilla forces want them to do bc it's a mega revenue stream for #Military contractors/donors AND it gins up the patriotic masses

  9. @QasimRashid Trump wants war with Iran, that's why. To get the public sentiment onboard with going to war with Iran, those in power sow hate and division. That way, when they initiate war with Iran they have the public onside... even if that means members of the public personally get conscripted to fight or even if that means escalating to WW3 with Iran + Russia + China. That's where this is intentionally heading to, #ww3 and the muslim hate is #manufacturedconsent

  10. "AI offers two things, more exploitation and a veneer of objectivity" - the accountability sink.

    Old by today's internet standards, but still gold. Reminds me of the "Line goes up" video on crypto that circulated a couple years ago.

  11. Probably shared by many, but another great video by @owenpeterjones!

    I've studied #journalism and what now is happening (worldwide, not only .nl) is completely the opposite what journalists were trained for. What is going on!? I'm not a conspiracy person, but why does that happen all at once? Why exactly days after the re-election of #Trump? Why while Israel is finishing their ethnic cleansing of North-Gaza? Is this all related or just by accident? I don't know what to think anymore. Only that the capitalist #media overlords are completely claiming their influence now and that many journalists are complicit in this road to an authoritarian clusterfuck!

  12. @urlyman internalizing the blame for the faster failing is an anti-pattern and a symptom that the actual accountable parties have #ManufacturedConsent in you to be the responsible party.

    Do not let them emotionally abuse your good-faith and humanity.

  13. From Times of Israel: "After a months-long investigation, the Shin Bet has concluded that Palestinians who entered Israel from Gaza for work prior to the October 7 Hamas terror assault did not provide Hamas with intelligence information that would assist with the assault, Channel 12 reports."
