Project Veritas? More like Project Bullshit.
Project Bad Faith
They are longtime believers of the philosophy that you’ll never go broke telling people what they want to hear.
Good.
Es freut mich!
I needed words and am refreshing my German on Duolingo.
“Unconvincing”? More like willfully fraudulent. I don’t feel like sullying myself in researching that turd today, but has O’Keefe ever in his entire adult life been involved with anything that wasn’t crooked? Has he ever even tried to hold a legitimate job? Or has he been an amoral professional liar the whole time?
O’Keefe should probably be serving a prison sentence, and should definitely earn a permanent ban from all social media platforms, but this is a start.
Project Falsitas if we’re sticking with the Latin.
Yeah, the Limbaugh show was going off on the censorships and cancel culture and mind control (etc) today.
The Russian state propaganda paper was named Pravda, the Russian word for “truth”. Funny how that word seems most used by those avoiding its meaning.
Good job Twitter. Sure, most of us here have known O’Keefe and his gang were infamous fraudsters going back a decade, but have a cookie for finally banning them.
Yeah, I cannot believe how lightly he was sentenced for conspiracy and attempting to wiretap a Senator’s phones.
I automatically distrust any organization with “truth” in its name. Using Latin is a multiplier.
You love to see it
Can we get some eye/mouth swappage in here please?
I came in for an unsettling image of this bucket of tongues n turds.
(looks under couch cushions, checks toilet, peeks in cat box, sigh)
Jack Dorsey: “Enabling fascists for over four years? Not sure what you’re talking about.”
(…nervously sweeps swastikas behind pile of blue check marks…)
Reminds me of people who say “Trust me!” out loud.
True con artists and cheats seem to get an early start when it comes to their trade.
It’s kinda like any legislation with “Family” in the title. It’s code for “anti-gay.”
Enkwife has an allergy to politicos saying "Look… "
she thinks it’s code for “here comes a whole load of bullshit! open wide!”
I think that is what they call a “tell”
Similarly there’s a far-right site and mastodon instance (which I will not directly reference) which is “that is true” in latin.
They claim to be more reasonable than the “looney” Gab, but are filled to the brim with conspiracy whackos.
