You'd think, wouldn't you, that Republican candidates would be smart and clever enough now to make "greatest hits" campaign ads that skewered opposition lies through their black hearts, but...
Paper ballots in person, at physical location, counted by real people, with an arbiter in each precinct to resolve any conflicts. And no pussy's allowed. Vote in person.
I noticed in 2020 the normal order of names on the ballot were listed differently; in the past, the incumbent would be listed first and all other candidates following. In the Trump-owned conservative central region of PA (I don't know about other regions), Biden's name was placed first on the ballots. That would have made it an easy cheat, as the Dominion tabulator simply counted the ovals on line 1, Biden, as votes for Trump and ovals on line 2, Trump, as votes for Biden. There was nothing that could be done about it. no one seemed to care, and proving there was a printing "error" after the fact would have been difficult for those reasons. There was nothing to see there, move along.
With all of these stories I inevitably find myself wondering “who are these people?”
Who is the guy that gets up every day and knowingly spies on his fellow citizens and tries to manipulate their thoughts and behavior with lies and trickery?
How many layers of delusion and lying to yourself at the deepest level do you have to be wrapped in to continue doing these things?
the IC has a "type." they recruit for "joiners" willing to subsume identity to ideology. they cast it as a war of good against evil and if you have break a few eggs to make that omelet, so be it.
they 100% think they are the good guys and fighting the good fight. "if you knew what we know, you'd understand..."
It shouldn’t shock me after the last four years, but it’s still difficult to wrap my head around someone allowing themselves to be that easily made into a dishonest tool.
Hitler, Stalin, Mao all thought themselves and their followers were the good guys fighting the good fight. Knowing what they knew and understanding as they did.
Pretty much every evil tyrant in history and their followers were convinced they were fighting against evil, themselves cast in the role of hero. Even Mayan ritual sacrifices, served a "greater good."
There's not enough sadistic fux to pull off mass murder crimes against humanity with sinister smiles and maniacal laughs joyfully proclaiming "evil wins, bioches!"
No. They are all, with rare exception, convinced of their righteousness and courage to fight for a "greater good" as they define it, the deaths of innocent a matter of unfortunate collateral damage.
And as his-story tells it, the side that wins and writes it fought for good while those they defeated fought for evil.
Moral of the story: Win. Winners "fight the good fight."

If Abe Lincoln was in school today, he could study all night by the gaslight the Democraps are bathing the country in. Ultimately, we must stop relying on others to tell us what's true and (re)learn to think critically, as we did when we were 3 to 6 years old. Dig into the dark corners of our brains and throw out the trash we have allowed to pile up and rot there, and replace it with "The Truth is Out There", whatever that actually turns out to be. Hey. No one said it was going to be easy...
💯 exactly right. As a species, we’ve given away our power to think for ourselves. Time to stop that conditioned / programmed habit. Very true, no one said it was going to be easy.
you nailed it, mickey free! i find it an ongoing process to cut out and remove the brain rot, but it’s well worth the effort. rediscovering the power and joy of primary creativity becomes easier the more one engages in it and even easier when one is in the company of others with common perspectives and goals.
You nailed it. The only reason they are 'shuddering' the SIO is because they have another organization (or 10) doing the same exact work. When one front gets exposed, they shut down that particular piece of the puzzle to provide the illusion of improvement -- but the 'work' never stops.
Same with the NGO’s. Whenever one gets “caught”and shut down or disgraced for their criminal enterprises, they just gravitate into another org or create a whole new one.

"How can people possibly have an election under these circumstances?" they will say. "We must declare martial law and suspend elections until "Democracy" is safe again." And the terrified public with mostly comply.
on the one hand, this one seems plausible, but on the other, perhaps not.
yes, it's a great pretext to call all things domestic "foreign" and turn the IC loose with jack bauer levels of accountability. BUT, and this is a large but, doing so has a huge cost. they let them all in over the border. it makes them look ineffective and will further demolish brandon's credibility.
they would have to go all in and really start pushing for something like martial law and CISA/DoD taking over elections.
You have a point, but Brandon is pretty much washed up anyway. He and his cabinet will be discredited, and a new puppet will take his place. On the other hand, these types of national emergencies can go on for years. The TSA and Patriot Act are still around almost a quarter century after Binladen and Al Kaida were neutralized. The end result could be the "trivial" implementation of all future elections becoming "federalized", with the states losing their control of the election process, all under the rubric of "safety" and "democracy". The new regime will temporarily shut down the border for a while anyway, because the public opposition to it remaining open is now too large.
The thing about the crowd that Biden runs with -- all their ideas are terrible to the point where it certainly looks like they're destroying the country on purpose. The only people riding in to 'save' the day are the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
"these folks are creative"...yes, but creativity driven by corruption, venality, greed and powerlust can only go so far before it confines itself into a corner, and has to lash out with naked violence when enough people realize they've been lied to for too long and have nothing left to lose. Then all bets are off. A regime only has so many tools in their kit. When they've exhausted all of them, there isn't much left except the truncheons and ever more debased show trials. The rotten edifice starts to implode in a controlled demolition, and suddenly you're in East Germany in 1989.
These people think they live outside of history. They will learn otherwise.
regarding voting machines, I have followed the arguments for years, but found this recent Scott Adams recitation more persuasive than most. Why do we have voting machines at all? Ask for an explanation. The only plausible one left is "to rig elections".
Meanwhile, the cabal is moving forward with the plot in parallel to swap out the dementia / battery-doesn’t-fully-charge-anymore puppet Biden with another puppet. Before the “debate.” 🙄🤣 No one will bat an eye. This “democracy” game is wearing too thin. The cabal wants the emperor game publicly reinstalled. They’re tired of the pretense.
They can’t give up because they are at war and they are not losing the war they are fighting. In fact, their opponent in this war is impotent (at the moment). Where in history can you find an example of an army ending a war they were both winning and succeeding on every front? Maybe some merciful armies of history stopped short of total annihilation soaring women and children or whatever. I can assure you that this army we are up against can’t have any mercy on their opponent because they have actually already lost, they are simply fighting for their lives right now and that won’t end because they’ve been embarrassed. They’re digging in, getting desperate and there are and will be extreme measures deployed.
What are the people in Washington doing, the ones who know these things and know what you speak of and are on our side? Why aren’t they ramping up protection and support of our votes in a way that any unforeseen f**kery cannot penetrate? If the IC can be strategizing and plotting how to deceive, why can’t the other side be strategizing and plotting how to protect??
Over the last 16 years or so in accelerated effort, there has been an enormous and deliberate “culling” of personnel throughout the US Govt, from the military to all the agencies and bureaus of any “wrong thinkers”, either to be outright ousted or severely marginalized.
Most of those left currently in place are loyalists to the Left.
I ask myself and others this question very often. No good answer. I think they are protecting their turf/power. If that is the case, they are no more “ on our side” than the loons mentioned in the article.
If anything, we have come to learn that whoever "they" are, they can never be trusted. Like fauci and pandemics, stanford censorship will be back stronger than ever.

Lmao!
It's still done with pencil and paper in the UK.
🤔 So you're saying that the people of London really do prefer Sadiq Kahn. 🤔
Again I say 🤔
It's only complex because they WANT it to be complex -- and they want it to be complex so they can cheat.
This is surely true.
One can get a great deal of mileage from saying with endless contempt "you just don't understand" to questioners without the technical expertise to comprehend where the snowing is coming from.
While they somehow obfuscate the fact we're just talking about counting pieces of paper.
Can you believe I'm old enough to remember when Democrats were screaming about Dominion's flaws and their danger to our democracy?
They also decried Diebold...when G.W. won. It's only okay to question in one direction.
You'd think, wouldn't you, that Republican candidates would be smart and clever enough now to make "greatest hits" campaign ads that skewered opposition lies through their black hearts, but...

It sure seems like it would be quicker, at least.
I'm not opposed to Purple Thumbs either.
I've asked myself the same thing. How can this be any more complicated than the machines that graded standardized tests back in the '80s?
Exactly the same thing.
Perhaps I should retcon my education - I really got straight A's but the algorithm made them B's.
Nys, had the best mechanical voting machines ever. Invented there. Giant machines. No fiddling allowed.
And of all places Puerto Rico,where the vote would be tallied in an hour.

There was a whole lot of Move Along in that election.

No. Really. Say nothing more. If you know what's good for you.
From a now ex-Noo Yawkuh:
You never stop needing to buy roach motels. You just gotta keep changing the placement.

What cost is there when virtually nobody is willing to pay the price for freedom?
Seems to me the lowest acquisition cost for control is just the prospect of having the process be the penalty.
