Thought Police alarm: U.S. urges you to confront friends' 'misinformation'
WND ^ | 12/4/2022 | Art Moore

Posted on 12/05/2022 6:18:27 AM PST by grcuster

The Biden administration has awarded $5 million to a group of journalists developing software to encourage Americans to confront their friends over "harmful" posts and to "correct misinformation" such as stating the COVID-19 vaccines are not effective.

The group, called Hacks/Hackers, also is organizing censorship of the online encyclopedia Wikipedia, to determine who is a "credible source" on vaccines and block others from being cited, the Daily Wire reported.

Users of the taxpayer-funded software – the Analysis and Response Toolkit for Trust, or ARTT – are encouraged to paste in their friends' Twitter and Facebook posts. The tool will tell them how "harmful" the posts are.

Reminds me of a friend who grew up in Soviet Russia; in school, they were taught that Lenin was “the Great Humanitarian”. When she was 17, and no longer at risk of talking in school, they quietly took her aside and told her the truth about communist history, including that Lenin was a murderous, evil bum.

Such a plethora of descriptive terms available to label those who are purveying disinformation! “Counterrevolutionary”, “Trotskyite dog”, “Reactionary swine”, “You’ll see the wall of a tiled cellar soon enough!” and so on.

I do that all the time. However, liberals tend to get testy when you challenge their religions.

"The Biden administration; many of whom have been quadruple vaccinated and got COVID anyway; has awarded $5 million to a group of journalists developing software to encourage Americans to confront their friends over "harmful" posts and to "correct misinformation" such as stating the COVID-19 vaccines are not effective.

Fixed it.

Remember how Obama used to say, to paraphrase, get in people’s faces about support for Obama and his policies?

Remember at least one Thanksgiving, during the Obama years, when Obama’s people issued “talking points”, to push the joys of Obamacare at Thanksgiving dinner to your unenlightened relatives, so that they too, would appreciate the joys of Obamacare?

OK ... so when “friends” are blabbing about the latest “booster” being safe and effective, be sure to correct their misinformation.

obama and his fellow travelers want to break up families.

We have never had a contentious Thanksgiving. Even with our college age kids and their cousins. It was always about the food and every one had a job to do.
