Reading @dappergander analysis on the level of conspiracy theories surrounding #midterms22, and why they seem less prominent vs '20
https://journa.host/@dappergander/109334459192581453To add to this:
In 2020, chaos was a feature, not a bug. Council for National Policy figures piloted a #questing OP that produced dozens of conspiracies (and their star figures).
This creates an alternative form of legitimate authority (/Weber), that is participative (power to capture attention & engage)

CW: Political
The waiting is difficult but with these races being so close we have to ensure every #vote is counted. Please sign up to help cure votes in AZ and GA if you haven't already done so.

#JacquesEllul: #Propaganda cannot create democratic behavior. It creates a type of man exactly suited to the totalitarian regime. Of course, it can spread democratic ideas and make the man adhere to this doctrine. But the man who adheres, is emptied of what makes democracy.

CW: The biggest battle of Putler will be the #midterms
Putler's biggest battle, after so many defeats already in Ukraine, will be the battle of the #midterms where the fate of the Ukrainian people will be decided as to whether they will be helped to defend themselves and liberate themselves from their genocidal invader conqueror neighbor. As Prigozhin said, the owner of the declared Nazi Wagner. "yes we are intervening in the #midterms" trump is a puppet of Putin.
