Last week, Tracy and Dale McMullen sold their vacation home in Buckeye, Arizona, a property they owned for five years. The Alberta residents, who usually spend four to five months in Arizona a year, said they are not planning to come back.
“We decided to sell the property after the current POTUS took office,” said Dale, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump, who was inaugurated for the second time in January.
“It was time to leave. We felt we could not trust what he might do next to us as individuals and to our country. We no longer felt welcome nor safe.”
Loaded question, negging question. “your seemingly misleading comments” - no precise quotation of what I have said that is misleading, just more vague bullshit.
Not my fault that the entire world is confused by “Operation Matthew 4:19” - Kremlin and Cambridge Analtyica simulacra and information warfare since March 2013. See this Lemmy community: “Understand USA” [email protected]
Not my fault you are so confused in April 2025 and didn’t study and learn from Neil Postman’s 1985 book:
“In America, everyone is entitled to an opinion, and it is certainly useful to have a few when a pollster shows up. But these are opinions of a quite different roder from eighteenth- or nineteenth-century opinions. It is probably more accurate to call them emotions rather than opinions, which would account for the fact that they change from week to week, as the pollsters tell us. What is happening here is that television is altering the meaning of ‘being informed’ by creating a species of information that might properly be called disinformation. I am using this world almost in the precise sense in which it is used by spies in the CIA or KGB. Disinformation does not mean false information. It means misleading information–misplace, irrelevant, fragmented or superficial information–information that creates the illusion of knowing something but which in fact leads one away from knowing. In saying this, I do not mean to imply that television news deliberately aims to deprive Americans of a coherent, contextual understanding of their world. I mean to say that when news is packaged as entertainment, that is the inevitable result. And in saying that the television news show entertains but does not inform, I am saying something far more serious than that we are being deprived of authentic information. I am saying we are losing our sense of what it means to be well informed. Ignorance is always correctable. But what shall we do if we take ignorance to be knowledge?” ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, 1985. [email protected]
Not really, but nobody else is doing it. Civic duty is how I have described it when asked why before. Mastodon hashtag I originated: “My Civic Ditty” https://mastodon.social/tags/MyCivicDitty
No, the 5,000 Kremlin alternate reality screen games (“Operation Matthew 4:19”) continue to penetrate hearts and minds and divide people all over the world. Your question is another Loaded question, negging question
another Loaded question, negging question
another Loaded question, negging question
I’ll keep REPEATING: Russia-watcher Catherine Fitzpatrick, who documents Kremlin disinformation for InterpreterMag com, says just as Moscow uses vague Internet laws to encourage self-censorship, trolls inhibit informed debate by using crude dialogue to change “the climate of discussion.” “If you show up at The Washington Post or New Republic sites, where there’s an article that’s critical of Russia, and you see that there are 200 comments that sound like they were written by 12-year-olds, then you just don’t bother to comment,” she says. “You don’t participate. It’s a way of just driving discussion away completely,” she adds. “Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work.” -Daisy Sindelar. August 12 2014
I’m not here to crticize articles and act like they are for entertainment and casual purposes. Again, you are trying to change the climate of conversation that the goal here is to “criticize articles”
The purpose is for people to understand, comprehend, not to criticize them. So far, you demonstrate no understanding other than to apply active measures against me to drive me crazy and make me want to quit using Lemmy. REPEATING: “You don’t participate. It’s a way of just driving discussion away completely,” she adds. “Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work.” -Daisy Sindelar. August 12 2014
My postings here on this post I created here… here… here on Lemmy… Started with “anti-goodness abounds” - which has been your behavior. “anti-goodness abounds” in April 23, 2025.
You’re doing an exceptional Bad Job at making people understand.
You’re talking to someone that rang the alarm bells way before Cambridge Analytica and correctly identified the misinformation and it’s source in 2015.
You lost me completely with your unclear messaging and ad hominem attacks.
Am I arguing with a rogue LLM or is it DMT fueled rambling?
Dehumanizing me as a machine, LLM. [email protected] community about your dehumanizing behavior of real people. So common in April 2025 machine lovers society that I am documenting it.
Your active measures of wasting my time, demoralizing me, dehumanizing me with lemmy computer machines messages after messages of badgering insult replies has worked very well. You are one of the best haters with Lemmy media platform.
Nel Postman’s 1985 book lost you completely. [email protected]
You have a target fixation on my personal writing because I have autism and you sense it.
You can’t cite a single one, you can’t quote a single time what I’ve said that is “an attack”. You misunderstand and have so much egoism and self-centered you think the topic is two people, your own self - I I I I ego.
This is my personal diary posting, so the topic was my personal expressions. The fact you find me difficult to understand is your problem of egoism, not mine. You haven’t even tried reading the other postings from before today, you just keep badgering and insulting me and giving me loaded questions as active measures of Kremlin media techniques on electric media.
I’ve done my best to try and be positive about your active measures and make it a teachable moment, but I’m already on my deathbed and the USA I’m living in is so much a Hell enviornment of mass dehumanization I’m almost barely surviving. Which I have openly discussed on social media. I do not enjoy the enviornment of April 2025 society I am living in, I find it horrific and bad, and that is why I named these postings “Diary of Anne Frank”.
So many people think it is fun, thrilling, exciting, “High Energy”, I witness it. But I don’t enjoy it.
Whatever you take, take less.
You want me to die, I’m already on my deathbed, so stop taking my medication and food and die. Got your message. A death-wish response.
Wow, why would you stoop that low?
What do you mean? You think I’m a liar? I am on my fucking deathbed and have been. I can barely eat any more. You think this is just a message on Lemmy and not factual reality? I’m not stooping low for your sake, I was here as I have been openly stating. RFK Jr is mass dehumanizing me for my autism just today. I have Hyper Empathy and I can’t take the constant “anti-goodness abounds” and mass dehumanization gong on in USA any more, I have already been hospitalized over a dozen times.
People just don’t get the title meaning of “Diary of Anne Frank”, and take everything as insincere.
Is this you?
https://www.gutknechtautism.org/experience-lots
I got the title, and I liked the post. Your comments on the other hand were outlandish and way too open to interpretation.
Just say it directly, it’s the Internet.
If you didn’t lie about your health, I would like to apolgise for implying you lied.
Yes
You are fucking PUNCHING DOWN on me!!!
QUOTE, GIVE ME A PRECISE QUOTE what is so fucking “outlandish”? Tell me why my expressions are wrong and please quote EXACTLY what you are referencing. Don’t just point to 5,000 pages I’ve publish and say every word is outlandish.
WHAT, PLEASE BE SPECIFIC AND PRECISE. I have NO IDEA what your brain thinks and does not understand!
