Context "The modern anti-vaccine movement was powered by unverified stories of the dead and damaged. Tiffany wasn't the first person to be swallowed up in an anti-vaccine propaganda campaign, and she wouldn't be the last. The unsettling thing about it -- to me and the more well-meaning conspiracy theorists who took up an interest in Tiffany's case -- was that she seemed to just disappear." https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/misinformation/tiffany-dover-conspiracy-theorists-silence-rcna69401 #ConspiracyTheory_COVID19Vaccine

I can't judge whether that's happening in Maricopa, but it certainly *felt* like this. It spins your head,' Zak wrote in a tweet thread, citing a 2019 paper, 'Disinformation as Collaborative Work: Surfacing the Participatory Nature of Strategic Information Operations,' written by Starbird and two of her PhD students, Ahmer Arif (now an assistant professor at the University of Texas at Austin) and Tom Wilson (who in April published his dissertation, a mixed-method, multi-platform analysis of the online disinformation campaign targeting White Helmet volunteers during the Syrian Civil War).

Supplementary #MagazineUKTheSpectatorPatrickWest "Many on the left decry with airy disdain that complaints of 'cancellation' and 'wokery' are just antediluvian grunts of conservatives who don't like, or don't understand, the modern world - with its new, strange manners concerning matters race and gender. Then there are the shopkeeper-type conservatives, who think the culture wars are all a silly hoo-ha about pronouns, toilet usage, dramas about Cleopatra and the Royal Family as seen on TV. They scold that we should be properly concerned with material materials: the cost of living, inflation, mortgage payments, industrial disputes, the future of the Conservative party. Both conclusions, from the complacent left and bean-counting right, are based on misapprehensions. They derive from a double falsehood. The culture wars are really taking place, whether the left likes or not. And the culture wars are a bread-and-butter issue, whether the right likes or not.

What was missing however, was the realisation that such conceptualisation assumes a common cultural understanding and objectives i.e. the #PoliticsStatusQuo - essentially, the further spread and reach of #OtheringElitesLiberalCulturalEducated values / a #TheoryHyperculture perspective - not the flourishing of divergent perspectives and with it, the surge in #ConspiracyTheory_.ies, the emergence of #EpistemologyAmateurParticipatoryDisinformation, #EpistemologyAmateurExegeteAutodidactDilettantism and charges of #MetaphorWarfareCulture and #CatchcryCancelCulture, supposedly mobilised as a singularly, unified attack against #ReasoningFallacyAppealToTraditionValues - representing a manifestly binary duality of #MetaphorVersusEverydayPeopleLiberals. #TheoryModernityReflexive

Trump. Leading up to that political moment, a clique of the movement's believers had situated themselves inside GOP-aligned institutions and media outlets in and around Washington, where they used the resources at their disposal to advance their cause.

#NewspaperUSBrdshtNewYorkTimesJillLepore "Mr. Musk has long presented himself to the world as a futurist. Yet, notwithstanding the gadgets -- the rockets and the robots and the Department of Government Efficiency Musketeers, carrying backpacks crammed with laptops, dreaming of replacing federal employees with large language models -- few figures in public life are more shackled to the past. On the day of Donald Trump's inauguration, Mr. Musk told a roaring, jubilant crowd that the election marked 'a fork in the road of human civilization.' He promised to 'take DOGE to Mars' and pledged to give Americans reasons to look 'forward to the future.' In 1932, when civilization stood at another fork in the road, the United States chose liberal democracy, and Franklin Roosevelt, who promised 'a new deal for the American people.' In his first 100 days, Mr. Roosevelt. signed 99 executive orders, and Congress passed more than 75 laws, beginning the work of rebuilding the country by establishing a series of government agencies to regulate the economy, provide jobs, aid the poor and construct public works. Mr. Musk is attempting to go back to that fork and choose a different path. Much of what he has sought to dismantle, from antipoverty programs to national parks, have their origins in the New Deal. Mr. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration provided 8.5 million Americans with jobs; Mr. Musk has measured his achievement by the number of jobs he has eliminated." https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/opinion/elon-musk-doge-technocracy.html #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #CharacterisationVisionaryFuturist #MetaphorWarfareHeroMusketeer #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyPOTUSFranklinDRooseveltFDR #IRLHistoricalFigureJoshuaHaldeman #PoliticsGovernanceTechnocracy #MetaphorDiseaseMindVirus #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #TauntPresumptionHubris #IRLEntrepreneurMarcAndreessen #TheoryFuturismFilippoTommasoMarinetti #PoliticsAuthoritarianismAutocracy https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/04/opinion/elon-musk-capitalism.html #NarrativeUtopiaPlacelessness #IRLAuthorDouglasAdams #IRLAuthorHGWells #IRLAuthorIainBanks #WorksSeriesTheCulture #ToponymAfricaSouthernSouthAfrica #BrandAmazonJeffBezos #PowerControlSegregationApartheid #IRLAuthorNovelistUrsulaLeGuin #IRLAuthorVirginiaWoolf

#EDUCAUniversityOfOttawaRitaAbrahamsen, #EDUCAUniversityOfOttawaMichaelWilliams "Ahmari's essay on dystopia begins by observing that 'Those of us who inhabit the Very Online Right like to point out how this or that new social phenomenon resembles this or that dystopian fiction. ... these resemblances to fictional dystopias should arrest us' (Ahmari 2021). Then he asks, 'What if dystopia is already here? What if our territory already conforms to maps drawn long ago by science-fiction authors? Could it be that we have crossed the invisible frontier that divides an ordinary place, an ordinary topos, from a dystopian realm?' Indeed, Ahmari is effusive in lauding the ability of dystopian fiction to place issues of the day (such as 'cancel culture, woke-ism and gender ideology') within wider frameworks that 'uncover the deeper currents shaping our age.' He sees these contemporary phenomena as 'merely the acceleration of older and deeper processes of ideological transformation' that dystopian fiction can help expose." Abrahamsen, R. and M. C. Williams (2025). 'Radical Right Dystopias in the Global Culture Wars.' Global Studies Quarterly 5(1).

"Owens, Crowder and Shapiro have all been of great import to the Trump movement. Other figures include - but not limited to - Charlie Kirk, Jesse Kelly, Dan Bongino, Jack Posobiec, Dave Rubin, and even Trump himself. Other figures, such as Joe Rogan, Elon Musk and Tulsi Gabbard, though not of the Right ideologically, can be counted as fellow travelers. Just as how AM radio have been the medium of choice for tech-savvy conservatives during the years of Reagan and Bush, the Internet have been the broadcasting tool for the online Trump supporters. Conservatives' favorite punching bag have been the well-to-do elites from the coasts, who are seen as unattached to a locality. However, by using the Internet, the Very Online Right can broadcast their views from anywhere in the world." https://musicallyspeaking.substack.com/p/the-rise-of-the-very-online-right #IRLCommentatorCandaceOwens #VlogLouderWithCrowderLWCStevenCrowder #TalkbackRadioTheClayTravisAndBuckSextonShow #TalkbackRadioTheJesseKellyShow [Wikipedia] #NMUSFOXFNCDanBongino #NMUSOneAmericaNewsNetworkOANNJackPosobiec #VlogJoeRoganExperienceJRE #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyTulsiGabbard

#IRLAuthorPeterJukes "Viewed against that history, Musk's line about 'abolishing' the EU [tweet] [jpeg] is more than a libertarian thought experiment. It condenses the political slogans of Trumpism and Brexit into one sentence: the nation-state as the only legitimate unit of sovereignty; supranational institutions as inherently undemocratic; the EU as something done to people, not by them. Medvedev's one-word response - 'Exactly' - makes plain how neatly this dovetails with Moscow's long-term ambitions. As former president and now deputy chair of Russia's Security Council, he has become one of the regime's most aggressive public voices, regularly threatening Europe with escalation and calling for a remade world order. When he endorses the abolition of the EU, he is not being rhetorical; he is restating a core Kremlin objective that has underpinned years of covert finance, disinformation and interference. The screenshot collapses those agendas into a single image: a leading Russian official cheerleading the destruction of the EU, and a tech mogul with his hand on the levers of global speech amplifying the same idea." https://pdjukes.substack.com/p/musk-medvedev-and-the-long-war-on #OrgEU #OrgClassifPPRUSUnitedRussiaDmitryMedvedev [tweet] #PhenomnBrexit
