This falls in line with nearly all the anecdotes I've heard about intra-family pressure campaigns to force everyone in the clan to get vaxed

I'm not hyper-skeptical of the vaxes, but the movement is driven hard by longhouse instincts and should be distrusted on that level alone https://twitter.com/HarmlessYardDog/status/1387923177414795264

These campaigns aren't designed to convince reasoned opposition. They're designed to maximize the amount of people who will accept the propaganda

Once the elite Zoom call has embedded the message, the discussion is over. It can simply rely on its converts to enforce the message

Since this process hasn't actually won the debate—it deliberately eliminated the *possibility* of debate—people will continue to resist its fiats

Since resistance to regime rule is unacceptable, the next step is simple: declaring resistance illegal

This is the regime's playbook wherever its goals are threatened, be it on corona, "fortifying the election," "systemic racism," literally anything Trump did

Get your true believers into a private room, then big-data your way to manufacturing the propaganda needed to end debate

(And it's no coincidence that in our increasingly longhouse culture, all of this propaganda relentlessly hones in on what causes "harm" or is "unsafe," this is what resonates over and over, it's a constant subversion of the motherly instinct to help the helpless)

The cynical excision and replacement of public debate with machine-precisioned propaganda should be enough for anyone who is not psychopathic: look, you've already won, you control both the "measurements" and the belief *in* the measurements

The fact they still feel the need to take that second step—the one that then declares you a criminal for disagreeing with them—is the clearest possible evidence that this regime's chief concern isn't "freedom," "democracy," or even science

Their own obsession with certain words reveals the only things that matter to them: power, and oppression.

The ruling powers manipulate the former away us so that they are most free to wield the latter against us. Once is coincidence. Always, it's exposed as the rule.
