It's wild to me when people have the realisation that maybe the entire Western media wasn't lying to them and they're like "Russia is so good at information warfare!" Like, Laura, they're not. You just ~wanted~ to believe it because it was politically convenient for you at the time.

Laura Loomer @LauraLoomer · Jul 21 I did say these things about Ukraine and Zelensky and I am not deleting my posts because I’ve realized, I was wrong. I was living in a media echo chamber and I was propagandized by Russian media on social media to believe those things. So I came to Ukraine to see the country for myself. I am going to try to find evidence for the propaganda I’ve been fed, and if I don’t find it, I will let everyone know so they too can come to see the light. On day one, I’ve already seen photos of dead priests in Bucha murdered by Russia and I saw the mass grave where the bodies of murdered Christians were placed after Russia sent forces from Chechnya to massacre innocent people. I spoke with officials who rescue POWs and they showed me photos of Ukrainian POWs who had swastikas engraved into their forehead by Russians. Who are the Nazis? 🤔 I was lied to for years. I realized Ukraine and @ZelenskyyUa aren’t the jihadi apologists… but Russia and Putin are! I was wrong! I have a responsibility to correct the record. Russia is very good at information warfare.

This is an good synopsis of why maybe the project to build a ballroom with a bunker underneath is just building a ballroom with a bunker underneath, and how the blowback trump is facing is just a consequence of the evisceration of the concept of truth he partly did himself and rode into power on,

Most Americans are against Donald Trump’s new White House ballroom. I’ve been looking into it and it might actually be one of the more normal things he’s doing at the moment. And that’s why it’s causing him so many problems. youtu.be/OUxdsySDsUw?...

I have to say I’m a bit disappointed that the teams who are on the verge of being knocked out of the World Cup if they don’t score in the last minute of the game aren’t trying 90s kids sports movies style trick plays. Switzerland, just give the Flying V a go. Why not?

In "normal times™️" this headline would have been discussed widely and probably lead to massive demonstrations within Germany. ... but now we live in the "jungle times™️" and this is merely a side note in the news cycle. ™️by @mattbevan.bsky.social

I still peruse the X timeline for work purposes and the algorithm has decreased the proportion of Nazi stuff and replaced it with people engagement baiting by saying the dumbest things imaginable.
