They showed this recent clip from some government function where a democrat senator or congresswoman or something (I didn’t recognize the lady) was questioned about a claim she made at a rally that police in America were hunting down and murdering innocent black people

When challenged she said “it was at a rally and I was speaking rhetorically”. Fair enough I guess. So would her claim be something the disinformation board would go after? We all know the answer to that one. Of course not. But it’s a claim that erodes trust in police, which could prevent someone from providing police information they need to solve a major crime. Or maybe prevent someone from contacting the police to save a loved one. So it could directly result in human suffering. But is not “disinformation” worth pursuing. Because it fits a political narrative

This isn’t an argument for the Ministry of Truth board, because it’s a stupid fucking idea and it WILL bomb in the polls. But just showing how easy it is to abuse such a thing

They make disinformation more popular by suppressing things like the hunter Biden story

Also, Dems won’t even be effective in this. Republicans like Mitch McConnell absolutely would, however. It’s very dumb of the democrats to continually expand government power and then complain when republicans do nefarious things with that power

Congress needs to be replaced 1:1 with people selected by Lot and then the new body of citizens needs to assert legislative power over the executive branch. This is getting ridiculous

I wonder if the ministry of truth will weigh in on the hunter biden laptop story, and punish those spreading the lie that it was russian propaganda, which was not only untrue but may have severely altered the course of the last presidential election.

SOME PEOPLE might say that's a problem that the "ministry of truth and 100% correct information" might want to look into!

It's dumb of the democrats to expand government power and then do nefarious things *themselves*. Which is why their support generally is absolutely tanking.

this is a government thing, not a left thing... not that the left has anything to do with Biden's admin at all, that's like calling Diet Coke "water"

they also do this shit, they package poison with pretty wrappers. it's what governments do

Democrats can’t do anything dude, they almost lost to trump, a man dumb enough to stare at an eclipse. The dem gov of Virginia told parents they couldn’t say what their kids were taught in school. They are transparently bad at politics and can’t do anything

I’m sure in California they can, but in most of the country they are powerless. Democrats have a pattern of doing dumb shit and then they leave office and get mad that republicans used powers expanded by democratic office holders
