1/ « We need to understand the origins of the Trump blitzkrieg to #counter it in the US and #prevent it from spreading abroad. The speed of the attack can be traced to Trump strategist and “accelerationist” Steve Bannon, and aligns with his information warfare tactic to “flood the zone” to #confuse, #disengage and #disorient. Whether on climate or Covid, rumours, lies and conspiracy theories create a chaotic #cacophony, leaving the public disoriented, fearful and prey to oversimple Trumpist messages: blame the woke, migrants, transgender people, Muslims, doctors, scientists. Musk’s purchase of Twitter/X supports Bannon’s agenda. » ⤵️

A7: It's interesting the way the question is phrased. #Picard never wanted to give Jack over to Vedic, but once he found out that Jack was his son both he and Shaw were suddenly willing to use their authority to save him.

It's very un-Star-Fleet.😖

Contrast this with #StarTrekDS9 #CallToArms, where Sisko made it a point that he could not go back to DS9 after the evacuation to rescue Jake and jeopardize the crew of the Defiant.

Since many are wondering what is happening with #Twitter, it is a mix of things.

Probably now is the time to treat it as a #hostile information landscape, where social/private #information is a vulnerability and should not be posted there any more.

In general, use twitter mostly for #counterspeech, #disengage as much as possible without ceding information space ground, and be careful not to get dogpiled/doxxed and take measures to #protect against it.
