The chaos is ratcheted up a bit more . . . exactly as planned by the oligarchy.

Lawlessness and evil are increasingly flooding the land and the planet . . . as the script outlined 2,000 years ago.

Buckle Seat belts, folks . . . The E-Ticket Ride is gathering speed.

This is wrong on so many levels. A pregnant lady?


Is nothing sacred? Cats and dogs behave better than that.

I'm starting to weep for humanity when we attack our children, our elderly, and pregnant women.

- The fact it was done on Veteran's Day mAkes me really weep.

INDEED.

Lawlessness is increasing. It will get worse.

We have been warned for 2,000 years.

I'm not sure that will be any great or lasting solution.

The oligarchy has been masterful in controlling GOP and DIMRATS ruthlessly to the destruction of the Constitution.

Actually, i see Facebook and twitter and the like as part of the problem. Some 'grievance' or rumor can go around the globe a few times, enrage multitudes of those who want to believe, who have been conditioned to become angry at any outrage, real or not, but even worse, conditioned to believe it has, long before it can be debunked and that spread to counter the rumor with the truth.
This is the new propaganda, and I have little doubt that the crowds could be manipulated into violence and self-destruction at the hands of those who would defend themselves against unwarranted attack.
A few carefully planted and coordinated accounts with some well made video and chaos could be created almost anywhere.

Exactly.  And it's completely unaccountable. Propaganda that can be injected straight into the vein.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . . you'd be wise to think carefully, folks . . .
.
You're beginning to sound like globalists and Trump wanting to shut the net down because of far too free a flow of information.
.
The solution would be far worse than the problem.
.
Yeah, our Republic and freedom of the press etc. are extremely messy. Life's like that--particularly with humans.
.
The alternative is the Eloi shuffling off to the maws and caverns of the Morlach so obediently . . . . for dinner . . . as the main course.
.
Choose your poison wisely.

Which do you think leaders have historically manipulated MORE?

--the haphazard free flow of person to person information sharing informally, freely

or

--the tyrannically strictly and rigidly controlled flow of information?

Think carefully before you answer. There WILL BE a test . . . and our culture is increasingly flunking such tests.

You misunderstand the point.  The free flow of propaganda is what it is -- whoever creates it is unaccountable: there is no way to argue with a meme.  Oftentimes such memes or narratives get uncritically picked up and passed along.

The thing about social media is that there is no moderating influence.  Things go viral, whether they're true or not.  Cynical actors can exploit, and even create and magnify the effect.

A well-crafted political meme can have extraordinary reach and influence (e.g., Ferguson, MO), regardless of truth.  It's propaganda, straight to the vein.

Perhaps you misunderstood my reply.

I would largely agree with your assessment.

I'm merely asserting that the solution of  preventing such by controlling things more

would be far worse as a solution than the original problem, imho.

Power only INCREASES !CONTROL! . . . and only from less tyranny to more tyranny.

They are already scheduling the Draconian control of the net. So, ultimately, it is a moot issue with their 'final solution' already mapped out.

WHEN that day arrives, I think that perhaps even you would long for the days of freewheeling even horrible meme's running rampant with lots of clueless followers sucking it up as though it were true.

Perhaps your uses of 'degenerate' and 'children' are overly charitable.

. . . perhaps 'creatures of the night' . . . overly given to demonic control . . . would be somewhat more accurate.

Perhaps.

The worst part of all of this is that these people have no demands. It is like someone took over a bus with a gun and the police ask him, 'What do you want? What is your goal?'


And the guy answers, "Nothing'.
What do you want us to do!?
I don't know what I want, but you better make it happen or I'm going to start shooting!


How do you appease or calm a group of people who have no goals and no demands?


It is hate for hate's sake. It is rioting for the sake of rioting. Nothing more.

Worse, they have no clue

I am not advocating for action on the part of Government. Not at all.

 But for us to not be aware of the potential for everything from SWATting, to false accounts which create an online persona we have no connection with until the raid team/police/Alphabet soup of agencies show up, bank accounts are siezed, etc, or groups of aggrieved citizens show up to demonstrate their displeasure or wrath upon their target, be that through false representation by another as you or the assertion by people who are opposed to you, your business, your politics, (or for any of a host of possible motivations), wish you harm.

The potential is there. Mere rumors can take days to quash, even with willing help. Some just won't go away, but that is no different from the backyard fence and wagging tongues and flapping lips of old, just far, far faster and much better distributed.

To ignore that potential is folly. To regulate it beyond making those who act illegally or those who falsely incite such actions accountable is wrong, too.

Agreed.

I'm certainly NOT suggesting folks remain unaware of the hazards and risks.

I'm merely noting, that, imho, "curing" such problems by government rule, law, regulation and/or policing would end up far worse than the problem.

And, in general, I'm NOT supportive of endlessly coming up with the umpteen hundredths law to further shove the citizens into tighter and tighter straight-jackets. We have plenty of laws on the books already.

Disgusting.  Blocking traffic, harassing and threatening and attacking motorists, smashing store windows, destroying property, setting fires – that is not protesting, that is rioting.

However, the title of the video – “Portland anti-Trump rioters attack pregnant woman with a baseball bat” doesn’t match the news report video posted nor any of the reports on the incident that I could find.

Was her vehicle blocked? Yes.

Did someone smash her windshield? Yes.

And both are inexcusable.

Did a “couple” of the protestors appear to try to help her and diffuse the situation? Yes.

Did anyone hit her with a baseball bat? No.

Was she pregnant? Unknown.

The reporter says the female driver, who was obviously shaken and very upset and understandably so, said she was in an emergency but nowhere could I find that she said or that the reporter said that she was pregnant.

So why is that the title of the YouTube video?  More sensational to get more clicks for the YouTube vid?

I’m sure I will see this posted elsewhere with the headline “BREAKING!!!! PREGNANT WOMAN BRUTALLY BEATEN DURING SOROS RIOT FOR HAVING A MAGA BUMPER STICKER!!!!!

Yeah, the video did not seem quite as dramatic as the title.

However, it is my policy and usually most site's policies to go with the original title for copyright reasons.
