No More "Tokyo Roses" Trying To Destroy Our Democracy!
If Congress wants democracy to survive, it must both roll back Citizens United & regulate Big Tech, forbidding them from allowing foreign governments to pretend to be Americans on social media. Former Assistant Director of the FBI, Frank Figliuzzi, just posted on Twitter:
"Divide & conquer: A sample of 32,315 pro-Rittenhouse hashtag tweets, Nov 19-20, showed 29,609 with disabled geolocation. Of those, 17,701 were listed as "foreign", but a deep scrub revealed most of those were in Russia, China, and the EU. @Tara_Writer @TAPSTRIMEDIA #Rittenhouse"
The fact-checking site Snopes looked into similar claims and found massive evidence of foreign-based social media accounts pretending to be Americans while cheerleading Rittenhouse and questioning the viability of America.
This is how democracies can be destroyed from the outside, by planting seeds of hate and division that appear to come from inside and alter the sentiments of the nation.
