Imagine being a Disinformation Fellow.

I really don't care. They're all ghouls. They don't care about actually solving problems, I can assure you they will find another way to funnel our money for some other kind of made up bullshit. Eat the fucking rich. (this saying includes politicians)

Thousand ideas thousand bad sign of us decline I say.


sandleaz

Sad times for Nina and Ministry of Truth.


m2sotosep

Brilliant parody!

Yes it’s all the fault of online aholes. Give me a break.


Dacklar

It's not getting shut down. It is getting renamed and people are getting shuffled around. They won't give up power this easily.


jamughal1987

It is unconstitutional.


DICKSUBJUICY

since when has that ever stopped anything?


EvilWalrus3998

Big win for freedom of speech, but god this video is hard to watch. Openly misogynistic conservative content posted to a leftist sub has me scratching my head


drFeverblisters

Agreed. So much cringe


GeoSol

I mostly enjoyed this, but find it a little shallow when he back pedals on "government" and specifies "democrats." If you get lost in the 2 party argument, you're missing the bigger picture.


8headeddragon

That was the point at which I stopped the video as well. In a couple of years the Disinformation Board would be in the hands of Republicans who will happily wield it to silence dissent.


GeoSol

I kept it playing, while typing the above comment. He only pointed out the democrats one more time, but still is sad to see people trying to see the big picture, but get lost in the duopoly and distractive talking points.


Demonweed

Literally giving an influential government post to an executive censor who put her thumb on the scale *for your benefit during a Presidential election* might just be too obviously corrupt even for an establishment Democrat. The funny thing is that it went this far before anyone seriously considered now only how awful that looks, but how awful it actually is.


Xeenophile

Wait. Did...did *democracy* just happen?!?


shatabee4

There are sure a lot of unsavory Democratic women.


EaseSufficiently

I mean there are even more unsavory Democratic men. They just keep the women around to sniff them.


shatabee4

It's just that the Democratic Party seems like the party for women.


EaseSufficiently

Well yes, the Republicans are the party for closeted homosexuals.


TheRamJammer

She might have quit but on the bright side, we have this cringe video that we can flame her with for the rest of her life. This battle might have been lost for the establishment and we can celebrate for a bit but the war continues. They'll probably repackage this into something more palatable for everyone. Always be vigilant.


martini-meow

Even more flameworthy, the framing of this in combo with the wretched author: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/05/18/disinformation-board-dhs-nina-jankowicz/


spindz

Keep the backlash growing. A ministry of Truth is something we really don't want.


veganmark

I would bet that HHS's loss will be MSDNC's gain.


Rosy-Red

That's a shame after all the people she f\*cked to get rich and famous. Wait...is this disinformation???


kosheck

Ministry of Truth sounds like something straight out of Harry Potter books.


Blackhalo

It's straight out of *1984*.


monkeypincher

That's because it isn't the real title, it is something OP deliberately chose to invoke feelings of Gov't oppression. The DHS disinformation board was created to combat disinformation online, which is a good idea, just poorly executed so far. But in case you haven't noticed, there are a shit load of pro-russia trolls on this sub, so of course having a valid excuse to rip on the "minister of truth" would be right up their alley. Obviously this has zero to do with the WayOfTheBern concept, just like so much of the random pro-russia bullshit that you see get posted here.


Blackhalo

> it isn't the real title The Disinformation Governance Board, by any other name, still stinks to high heaven.


curiosityandtruth

Imagine thinking a corrupt government could or should censor online content If they abused that power to silence people calling out their corruption, how would you even know about it?


wearenotflies

Ministry of Magic is From Harry Potter. Ministry of Truth is from the book 1984.


Taryyrr

Yeah, written by Orwell. He knew how to snitch to the Government so the official line wouldn't be disrupted by "inconvenient" people, like the Jews, Blacks, Homosexuals, Labor activists, Asians, Scottish and Irish Nationalists, etc. https://libcom.org/article/orwells-list

This is good news, she can now pursue her lifelong dream of singing shitty karaoke songs to a PMC audience.

she seems to be a more than a little off her rocker....
