"Trump's claim that he’d rather deal with a Liberal than a Conservative in #Ottawa is the same tactic Putin used when he said he preferred Kamala Harris—while actually backing Trump.
Poilievre and Trump’s messaging is no coincidence.
Canadians won't be fooled."

This is an extremely good article of all the ways Trump is bringing authoritarianism to the United States of America. With multiple experts drawing multiple parallels to past fascist regimes and also, how it is different this time, particularly with information warfare.

Wake up America.
For the love of god.
WAKE UP AND FIGHT

HE IS TRANSFORMING YOU INTO EVERYTHING YOU SAID YOU WOULD NEVER BE.

I didn't expect my post about Swedish Television mistakenly labeling Vladimir Putin as "president USA" yesterday to blow up the way it did. What I *really* didn't expect was #Hachyderm's admins deleting my post just as it was approaching a thousand boosts. This because someone allegedly reported it as "misinformation", and that what I saw on TV "does not appear to have actually happened"... which ironically is about as Putinesque a statement can be.

So how would you fact check this? A few people commenting on the post had already done that, the way people normally do — by asking for the source. And they got it. I even boosted the link to SVT Play, where the broadcast can be streamed by anyone. It's still there https://www.svtplay.se/video/jAM5B9o/aktuellt/tor-13-mar-21-00?position=135

The Hachyderm "fact checking" process doesn't ask for a source though. In fact, they didn't ask me for anything. Since there were no news headlines mentioning this blunder, it must not have happened.

I appreciate the lecture for me to "fact check my posts before posting", but the assumption that I'd want to post anything on this instance again could certainly need some fact checking.

To the rest of you, enjoy this last screenshot of Putin definitely not getting labeled as "president USA" on SVT2 News on Swedish Television. And for those of you who can't get enough of things that never happened, I'll post a video in a comment below too.

This is pretty rich coming from a US company at a time like this... at least they spelled favourite correctly 😂🤣🙄

Just 6 months ago..
🇨🇦 Conservatives quickly delete #Poilievre's Russian jets video..

"These are our people!
This is our country!
Let’s bring it home!”

'OK, Pierre..
Those mountains you call the Rockies?
They’re in Utah
The foothills? Indonesian
The grazing cattle are in California
The new home is being constructed in Slovenia
Then there are those Russian fighter jets. Are those coming home, too? Isn’t Norad supposed to prevent that sort of thing?'
