Screenshotting and posting tweets that provoke emotional outrage has become the norm. All parts of the political spectrum use it. 90% of the time, the claim in the tweet has zero source to back it up. The information is accepted without question because it is propagated on forums where the audience leans towards the message being sent.
A screenshot of a tweet saying "everyday in america, 250 black men are hunted down and killed by police", it will make it to the front page on reddit (esp in 2020).
Likewise, a screenshot of a gab or parler or tweet saying "trudeau is literally worse than stalin because he had the police evict the convoy protesters", it will make it to the front page here because the people will eat it up.
None of those messages are true, but they're short texts that can be quickly read by their target audience and provoke an emotional response the further push the person into their hole of an echochamber.
Be careful of what you upvote. Use critical thinking. Have emotional control.
Trust no one. Even your alt.
Oy Vey!
Yes. It is almost NEVER about the news or how accurate it is.
It is ALWAYS about your emotional /subconscious reaction to the "news.
It is all abiut reaction and mass emotion control.
Even if it is deemed fake news later on, the mass emotional reaction stays, which was the goal all along.
Also worth pointing out: You will experience much media frenzy on incorrect and illogical statements made by not only media pundits, but government and big corp.
So if you want to downplay the reality that the prime minister of canada is a bigger criminal than stalin by leaving out all the facts, then that is your choice.
For me, if someone states something, I use my own capability to research and understand what is being said.
You clearly are the type to read it and accept it, I feel sorry for you, you should learn some critical thinking skills.
Proof?
lol? you are so simple minded you are going to ask someone for proof of something they said?
Is this reddit? you want me to post you all the links over the past 18+ years that detail the various crimes?
Do some research, or keep your head in the sand waiting for the next meme to guide you.
Where are the Canadian gulags?
