>The basic reason infowar tactics work at scale is that our brains are wired for evidentiary scarcity (like our metabolism is wired for scarcity of salt/sugar/fat) We seek confirmation (fragile) over disconfirmation (robust) because that’s rational in info-scarcity environments. If you’re retreating from social media, narrowing info sources to fewer “trusted” ones, and breaking up with friends who suddenly seem to have gone crazy,… Congrats, you’re a casualty of infowar. If you think of it as mental health/self care, it’s worked even better on you.

>Arguing that free exchange is inherently unfair and exploitative is not all that different from Trump’s argument against the free trade status quo.

I can only hope they are just too dumb to know what that logo means
i think they are trying to say 8th amendment is basically nazi. this is why they took the british nazi flag and painted on it 'strike for repeal', as if to say 'repeal the facist amendment'
Next year they can have signs with this on them
