This is exactly what Putin (and Musk, and Trump, et al) are trying to advance. This has been brewing for decades in Russian nationalist thought, and he has allies. Pay attention to the debt ceiling! This is what it is about! 👏

'Golden billion,' Putin's favorite conspiracy, explains his worldview and strategy

The conspiracy theory claims global elites plot to hoard the world's wealth and resources, leaving the rest of the planet to starve — and it's gaining traction in Moscow amid the Ukraine war.

Twitter has become such dead ends for tweets. It’s like you’re floating around in a void. 😝

Honored to have Zarina Zabrisky reporting from Ukraine on Episode 50(!) of Radicalized Pod. She has heartbreaking stories from the front lines in Kherson, where the Russians mined everything on the way out, and critical perspective on how the war is going overall.

If you haven’t seen the show, please give it a try. We work hard to bring the latest news on the information war and interview great guests with my cohosts @HiFi and @HeidiCuda 🙏💙

SUCH a cool experiment out of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab: https://archive.social

Allows you to capture a thread from Twitter and archive it in sealed PDFs to attest to legitimacy.

Could be enormously useful to journalists, archivists, etc, particularly with Twitter facing a perilous future.

Save Your Threads

High-fidelity capture of Twitter threads as sealed PDFs on social.perma.cc. An experiment of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab.

Bellingcat created a tool — the Auto Archiver — to help the open-source community, as well as journalists and researchers, easily archive online content. The tool allows for posts, and their video or visual attachments, to be archived by simply entering a link into a Google Sheets document.

Has anyone used this tool, and if so what does a low-tech user need to know? Thanks.
