If you have less tech-savvy older relatives who are victims of the regime's disinformation machine:
-
Acquire their YT/FB login/password (create an excuse, borrow their phone and reset the password or create a new account)
-
Login to the YT/FB account on another device.
3. Watch/like anti-fake news videos, mainstream media videos and block fake news pages/channels using their account. Repeat often.
- Occasionally bring up talking points to see if their views are changing.

This is the kind of thing I want to see. Not just one show, but as many as possible, oversaturating the internet even. With different flavors, approaches and target audiences. Let the algorithms work in favor of truth for a change.
(All of this requires time, money, effort)
Quoted RegineCabato's tweet:Yes, the attempt to dumb down the conversation re: NGO definition is a troll line.
Proposal: A fun and snappy weekly YouTube show called TrollBusters compiling and debunking the scripts of the week, gathering screen caps and receipts, explaining the structures, fallacies, etc. https://twitter.com/imnotyomom/status/1525381997836632064

Second quick draft was much better than the first. Hopefully we have good pulls in the Arena Open as well!

Tried an early morning off-stream #MTGSNC Quick Draft unsurprisingly with UW. Didn't get there though.

So basically, politely correcting false info just makes things worse. If so, how are we supposed to fight disinformation?
Quoted emollick's tweet:🤦 Let’s say you see someone make a mistake & post a false political story on this website. So you point it out to them, politely. What happens next?
The partisan slant & toxicity of the person you corrected’s future tweets goes up & their quality drops! https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3411764.3445642

Around 14 months after I first broke through to Silver rank in #StreetFighterV I managed to hit Super Silver for the first time! At this rate, it'll be two years into SF6 before I hit Gold in SFV lol #gaming

Drafting Streets of New Capenna! ep5 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgsnc
Just one draft again today, my first shot at the GW archetype. Wasn't super happy with the deck and had lots of grindy mirrors but at least I was able to get to 4 wins.

I rarely do #selfies, but here's a before and after. I promised to get my hair cut after the election. I've let it grow out for about a year, this was the longest it's ever been.

My coping mechanism is quotes apparently

Today is the day of destiny. Starting a thread for when I go out later. #Halalan2022

#Halalan2022 Pro-tip: If you have not yet gone to vote, you can search Twitter for your voting location ("Sth Sth elementary school") to see if people have reported how long the queues are, vcm problems etc
Vote has been cast at Tandang Sora Elementary School. Around 20 mins once we found the room
(Click photos to view full-size)
Still so many people though. Social distancing impossible. Think vcns in other precincts at same site had problems as someone was on a loudspeaker telling voters to wait or leave their ballots for batch feeding.
Our room was on the 2nd floor; my seniors were able to handle it but what abt PWDs? Still, happy we were able to vote quickly, though as usual the elem school seats could only accomodate one of of the butts lol
Good luck to everyone still trying to vote today and I hope we all pass today's collective IQ test! #Halalan2022

@mlq3 Am currently doing my list; I've found some red flags raised about D'Angelo (mismanagement of some cosplay funds?) and Cabonegro (predator accusations?). Have you seen these concerns and found them to have no merit?

@ainsleysdad11 it's unnecessary to message me directly, I can see replies to the bot
