"There’s little doubt that the federal government is spending tens of millions of dollars a year to intervene against social media companies and messages."
All told, I bet you are off by at least one order of magnitude. And when you add in all of the other money used by our government to nudge/regulate/control and wage war against us, we are probably funding our own demise to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
This is exactly why all of us need to make certain we support those who are fighting the State and all its iterations and keep spreading the word of its many vices and criminal efforts. Like QAnon, which I imagine is a phantasmagoric creation by some kids at DOD or some other Deep State group, who sit around smoking dope or drinking and make things up and send it out, with their allies picking up the thread and spreading it further, no matter how preposterous, so long as it puts some ideas, groups, and individuals in the worst light possible. Like the MI5 Brit and the FBI, who took the dossier he assembled and funded by the FBI and the Clinton campaign, on Trump and released it, with the help of McCain and others, then MSM picked it up and published it, then the FBI pointing to the stories and using that to further investigate the Ruskies and Trump. A closed loop that reinforces itself.
These people are everything they criticize but they have billions of dollars to work with when you look at all the vehicles they can access across all media, universities, and mass culture.
Thanks for your leadership, Chris, in bringing this information and your perspective to us deplorables and unwashed peasants so we can fight.
Good luck finding anything about QAnon. I tried after J6 and could only find MSM criticism and blame articles, but nothing specifically directing me to QAnon content. I checked FB too. Not sure where QAnon "lives" online.
I'm also curious if QAnon is an organized group or a series of ideas defined at "dis-mis information" by MSM and Govt. agencies, and those who expouse them are labeled QAnon?
Aye, but she got totally ridiculed for that post though. Credibility (if she had any in) in flames....folks are getting wise to this nonsense. Same thing is happening in the UK and we have 77th brigade too, a division of the British army, paid to troll on twitter specifically people who post anything against the government narrative. They're easy to spot as they're not exactly bright.
Musk is not alone, via SpaceX he has many military friends.
That the military and IC are not monolithic reflects the feudalism in Federal skin that is our government.
Musk may appear an outlier, not really, bold though he be.
Many elites in a quieter fashion are defecting back to America from globalism.
They want a sane, rich, powerful country.
Thiel, Katherine Boyle, Marc Anderson, az16.com, Lattice the OS for war, I can go on.
Micron is building a chip factory in central NY state, 50K jobs.
Hardinge moved a machine tool dies manufacturing plant to Elimira, NY in 2021.
Musk an engineer would never go out on a limb alone like this for no reason, and not alone.
The reason for Musk's life is space, and Mars.
He is acting to stabilize his launch platform of America and by extension the earth.
Not for all the world would Musk risk Mars, nor should he.
As for him facing some flakes with some DARPA or IC funding, I would not worry too much.
We've been funding the other side or both sides since the Bolsheviks of October 1917, indeed Taylorism seduced Lenin, Stalin was absolutely the greatest implementer of Taylorism and 'efficiency'.
We built the tank , er tractor factories at Stalingrad and Kharkov.
To fast forward to other IC projects we have respectively William F. Buckley and Gloria Steinham, who seem an odd couple until you consider they were both CIA.
As for the Democrats using Federal funds to support their attack dogs, uh yes...forever.
The LSC / Legal Services Corporation has always been a slush fund for Dem activist lawyers.
The list of politicized Government offices that are basically Democratic ward heelers would fill up volumes and the Federal Government Org Chart.
The government IS the Democratic party, the Democratic Party is the government.
I was thinking this from the beginning. This group all got together and “nominated” Musk to be the public guy to take over twitter and be the tip of the spear. There is definitely a war on here.
Seriously, if this war is deggenerated to "experts" TWEETING, and everyone accepts that as credible ANYTHING, then frankly the war is over and it was a draw between dumber and dumber!!!🤦♀️🙄😑
For those not already incapacitated by social media trance, then I suggest, teach your kids debate and the classics and they will be able to survI've the coming "idiocracy". #whokilledcriticalthought #languageisdead #tweetfacecartel
What in the hell is Qanon anyway. One of my employees accused me of being "Q" a few years ago and I have no idea what it is really. All I know is it is used and a pejorative when it comes to any thought the left disagrees with. FYI, employee is no longer working for me. Not because of this, it was other nonsense.
It's an intelligence agency internet based psyop via a posting board that they developed in order to snare undiscerning "patriots' into believing there were "white hats" inside the government and military that were coming to save us from the commie takeover among other things. It led to a small number fools going to DC on Jan 6th thinking they were meeting up with military to overthrow the stolen election. They were lured into the Capitol building by complicit Capitol police and then were jailed. Almost 1000 Americans were arrested and many still sit in a gulag with no due process. Sad. It has now been used to brand all populists and conservatives (especially those who openly speak of election fraud) as nutcase, dangerous insurrectionists. It was a very successful overthrow of MAGA and a demonization and criminalization of the political opposition.
When did trapping and jailing your political enemies like they are 9/11 terrorists become acceptable? It must have been part of the Build Back Better playbook along with election month, pronouns, and mis/disinformation, which are the most banal, overused terms, and don't seem to be going away any time soon.
Because it's OK When Democrats Do It. Duh. How many people are serving time for rioting in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, Kenosha, Washington DC, etc.? None. Why? Because It's OK When Democrats Do It.
It's ironic you use 9/11 because that's where all this started. With the Patriot Act, and the immense funding to all the 3 letter agencies since. Almost all of the legislation was wishlist items these agencies had wanted for years, and only tangentially related to "terrorism".
Of course when I say “anybody” I mean someone with wealth and reach. Some nobody like me is allowed to realize this. A guy like Elon needs to be kept under thumb.
It's not just Twitter and Musk. It's everything. The feds have been taking our money to fund the pet projects of the PTB for a long time now. I don't see any way to end it, as the old Republican presidential candidate game of "which three executive departments would you cut tomorrow?" isn't even laughingly played anymore. (For the record: Education, Energy, and Agriculture. And I'd gut HHS and the DoD.)
Seriously: How can anybody stop this?
Here's a fun one from today about the USDA: the place where Tom Vilsack takes a breather between gigs at lobbying firms, and also the sponsor of yet more climate BS. So glad we fund this stuff. Is three billion dollars still a lot of money? It feels like it.
TUSKEGEE, ALA. — On Dec. 12, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that investment in Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities was increased to $325 million, bringing the total investment to $3.1 billion. The second funding pool will be distributed across 71 projects.
Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities exists to support small and underserved US agricultural farmers who produce climate-smart commodities and to leverage greenhouse gas benefits of climate-smart production. The second funding pool was particularly focused on innovative projects that emphasize enrolling small and underserved producers and invest in measuring, monitoring, reporting and verifying the benefits of climate-smart practices at minority-serving institutions.
In November, the US Department of Agriculture announced an investment of $300 million into the second pool of funding. The additional funding will better cover the $2 billion requested in project proposals.
The first round of funding, totaled $2.8 billion, while it received over $18 billion in total project requests for projects between $5 million to $100 million.
“Expanding opportunities for small and underserved producers is a key goal of Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities,” said Vilsack. “Small and underserved producers are facing the impacts of climate change head on, with limited resources, and have the most to gain from leveraging the growing market demand for agricultural goods produced in a sustainable, climate-smart way. Our goal is to expand markets for climate-smart commodities and ensure that small and underserved producers reap the benefits of these market opportunities.”
USDA anticipates that the projects from both funding pools combined will result in hundreds of expanded markets for producers, a reach of more than 60,000 farms and over 60 million tonnes of carbon dioxide sequestered, among other benefits.
The Democratic Party using the government as an arm of the party has been the situation our entire lives. It's only since they started looting the entire country and still are running out of money, and started slaking the gays thirst for children with school kids that anyone noticed.
The Democratic party is all about Top Priority Trading.
Wall street has an endless thirst for money, gays for kids.
They are taking over the food supply under the guise of "helping" farmers. They are actually destroying farmers. Those that survive will be forced to grow mRNA loaded vegetables and God knows what kind of insects for the enslaved masses to consume.
The good news is that most of these projects are really just treasury smash-and-grab, money-laundering schemes that will have minimal actual effect, because they are run by stupid people who have no clue how to get anything actually done. They will in most cases accomplish little more than flaring off vast quantities of taxpayer and Chinese cash.

All these spook agencies, departments, think tanks, NGOs etc. are the new Byzantium red tape. To me, they're all rooms filled with faceless souls where there is no truth, justice or accountability. A metaphor for an endless stairwell in either direction. Maybe you'll see that one shadow down below or above you that gives you hope and as you race toward it, it disappears.
Such a nightmarish scene is reminiscent of The Trial. Kafka is no longer fiction. It's crossed over into reality where the state apparatus is concerned.
The West believes it has some sort of functional, organized and well-heeled bureaucratic machine employed by far-seeing abled minds who want to do good. But when you're in a state of disrepair and incoherence wallowing in a valueless and unprincipled cocoon, what we actually have is organized chaos. An illusion of a functional state.
At that point, all talk of good or bad ceases. Now we have a situation where our civil servants have taken it upon themselves - seeing this uncontrollable chaos - to ignore all laws, due process, charters, documents, constitutions and agreements and just, well, fucking wing it 'because monsters under the bed'. In some ways, the state projects its paranoia on its citizens.
It's all so daunting.
Bah. I'll stop here lest I make less sense. Just thinking out loud over peppermint tisane.
When I read about this Elon rabbit tweet (since I’d rather end it all with an ice pick than participate in any social media) I took it more as a Matrix reference......what does his tweet have to do with QAnon? I only ever met one Q believer - he was one of the sweetest, kindest people I’ve ever met, and not an idiot. His hope and belief in “Q” seemed more to be a naive desperate optimism - that people were embedded in high places to save us and the country from layers of powerful corruption that seems to have no bottom. He was right on his assessment of the corruption. What he missed is that nobody is coming to save us. We have to save ourselves. Through courage in our every day lives - school board meetings, our workplaces, in how we vote (even if we don’t like the system). We aren’t being asked to fight the great wars of our parents and grandparents - literal physical danger - and yet so many people won’t even find courage enough to simply speak. He wanted an easy answer to the ugliness - it relieves us as a society from the burden of our own salvation.
Agreed - though seeing it in the context of when it was first released - it was pretty groundbreaking at the time. The opening sequence with Trinity.....you were literally holding your breath the entire time. Seeing it for the first time now could never have the same magic :)
Actually I did watch the first one when it came out. I have almost no memory of it! And I'm a science-fiction fan. I guess I'll rewatch that one again just because it comes up so much in terms of red pill/blue pill etc.

Well shit you make QAnon sound pretty cool, gonna google it up and dive in
:D
Good luck finding anything about QAnon. I tried after J6 and could only find MSM criticism and blame articles, but nothing specifically directing me to QAnon content. I checked FB too. Not sure where QAnon "lives" online.

Do you like poetry? https://qanon.pub/
I wonder if Ms Orr Bueno has ever heard of Barbara Streisand?
Because I don't know what's "Qanon", but Q always claimed to be military intelligence / NSA.
And to be fair, much of Musk's money, and certainly the early stuff, came from the Government too.
Sometimes it just feels like a big elaborate play.
It does feel scripted right? A distraction. From what?
The deep state fleecing your cash, and taking away your freedom and liberty.
Aye, but she got totally ridiculed for that post though. Credibility (if she had any in) in flames....folks are getting wise to this nonsense.

I wondered what it was too so I googled Qanon after J6 and couldnt find much info or links to any Qanon websites.
Of course the feds can haul a 1000 Americans in for J6 with geofencing tech but they magically are impotent in finding QAnon 🤡.

Bingo. Remember the news footage of Dem politicians denying there is such a thing as ANTIFA....even as cities burned all over the country?
It's ironic you use 9/11 because that's where all this started. With the Patriot Act, and the immense funding to all the 3 letter agencies since. Almost all of the legislation was wishlist items these agencies had wanted for years, and only tangentially related to "terrorism".
Its even more ironic that "patriot" has become a dog whistle for domestic terrorist and the Patriot Act now includes domestic terrorists.
Chris want to emphasize Musk isn't alone and that elite defections to America are what was missing.
Was, it's actually happening.
The government can’t afford anybody to realize that it’s mutated into exactly what the founding fathers took up arms against.
Of course when I say “anybody” I mean someone with wealth and reach. Some nobody like me is allowed to realize this. A guy like Elon needs to be kept under thumb.

USDA bumps up funding for climate-smart projects
12.13.2022
By Rachael Oatman
TUSKEGEE, ALA. — On Dec. 12, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that investment in Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities was increased to $325 million, bringing the total investment to $3.1 billion. The second funding pool will be distributed across 71 projects.

What changed is noticing....
They are taking over the food supply under the guise of "helping" farmers. They are actually destroying farmers. Those that survive will be forced to grow mRNA loaded vegetables and God knows what kind of insects for the enslaved masses to consume.
Food in the not-to-distant future: GMO (CRISPR edited) vegetables, cultivated (lab-grown) meat and insects! 😋
Canada and Holland are already setting "nitrogen targets" to force farmers to stop producing food.
You won't even get the veggies, prole.
Yup. Didn’t NZ ban home gardens as well?
The good news is that most of these projects are really just treasury smash-and-grab, money-laundering schemes that will have minimal actual effect, because they are run by stupid people who have no clue how to get anything actually done. They will in most cases accomplish little more than flaring off vast quantities of taxpayer and Chinese cash.
It’s sad that that’s good news.
Good take, and hopeful in a way.
The voluminous cash flows into the leftist bureaucracy that has become tradition are not returning results.
We Americans see it now.
With growing clarity.
All these spook agencies, departments, think tanks, NGOs etc. are the new Byzantium red tape. To me, they're all rooms filled with faceless souls where there is no truth, justice or accountability.

All of that makes perfect sense.
I made a slight edit. But man, this sort of topic can splinter off into a manifesto. But I'm all out of hoodies and dark sunglasses.
I was quite the fan of Orr in my days of being interested in 'combating disinformation'. Before realising 2 things.
'Disinformation' is a demand-side, rather than a supply-side phenomenon.
'Disinformation' is ideology-agnostic.
It was a short hop from those epiphanies to this one...
Who gets to decide what constitutes 'disinformation' creates the perfect space for their own version of reality to flourish. Whether or not it's true.
I don't get the bunny thing. I thought QAnon was that frog?
When I read about this Elon rabbit tweet (since I’d rather end it all with an ice pick than participate in any social media) I took it more as a Matrix reference......what does his tweet have to do with QAnon? I only ever met one Q believer - he was one of the sweetest, kindest people I’ve ever met, and not an idiot. His hope and belief in “Q” seemed more to be a naive desperate optimism - that people were embedded in high places to save us and the country from layers of powerful corruption that seems to have no bottom. He was right on his assessment of the corruption. What he missed is that nobody is coming to save us. We have to save ourselves. Through courage in our every day lives - school board meetings, our workplaces, in how we vote (even if we don’t like the system). We aren’t being asked to fight the great wars of our parents and grandparents - literal physical danger - and yet so many people won’t even find courage enough to simply speak. He wanted an easy answer to the ugliness - it relieves us as a society from the burden of our own salvation.
geez, I don't want to watch all those matrix movies.
the first one is dope, worth your time for sure
Agreed - though seeing it in the context of when it was first released - it was pretty groundbreaking at the time. The opening sequence with Trinity.....you were literally holding your breath the entire time. Seeing it for the first time now could never have the same magic :)
Actually I did watch the first one when it came out. I have almost no memory of it! And I'm a science-fiction fan. I guess I'll rewatch that one again just because it comes up so much in terms of red pill/blue pill etc.
I took the bunny thing to mean follow the white rabbit, as in The Matrix.
BTW, forget about Q. The real action is R. I found out about it on 13Chan.
This comment gave me such a laugh!
The frog is Pepe, I think, and dates back to 2016. I think QAnon was less pro-Trump and more mentioning conspiracy theories, but I tend to ignore the labels in this game. I don't know how much they matter.
