Politicians who repeatedly tell lies in order to spread false information that will harm their voters, small businesses, and the country in general are genuinely trying to cause harm. For example, Trump's false or misleading claims total 30573 over 4 years. What has that done for the US? There are now large portions of the US who believe in practices and politicians who have and will destroy much of the lives of the 99%.

Politicians who repeatedly tell lies

You could have just said politicians.

Remember when Adam Schiff (D) objectively lied to the American people multiple times about having evidence of direct of ties between Trump and Russia. When questioned under oath he said the opposite. Why is he still allowed on twitter? That seems like pretty dangerous misinformation given the current political climate. Remember when he doxxed a journalist? Remember when he lied about Russia again just this last November?

Remember Russiagate? Remember when the FBI bugged the Trump campaign based on the Steele Dossier which was known to be false at the time they used it as an excuse to bug the Trump campaign?

Why are all the people involved in this still on Twitter?

Remember when they lied about Trump saying fine people on both sides? Remember when they lied about Trump saying you should inject bleach? Remember when they lied about Trump firing tear gas at people for a photo op? Remember when they lied about 5 people dying on Jan 6?

Remember when they told us the summer of 2020 was mostly peaceful when more people died in those riots than all black people killed by cops in the entire year prior? Remember when Trump was banned from Twitter for "inciting violence" in his tweet that told people to act peacefully and go home? Remember when the Hunter laptop story was silenced because it was "stolen" or "hacked" when it was actually legally obtained?

Remember when they lied about Sandmann? Rittenhouse?

Remember when Biden promised in his campaign that he would never do vaccine mandates? Remember when Pelosi said they don't have the authority to do vaccine mandates? Remember when Fauci said vaccine mandates were unethical and if someone refuses the vaccine that's the end of the conversation? Remember when Fauci said masks don't help? Remember when Fauci said masks help? Remember when Fauci said 2 masks isn't better than 1? Remember when Fauci said 2 masks are better than 1? Remember when Fauci claimed there was no gain of function research at Wuhan? Remember when the NIH claimed there was?

Remember when they told us ivermectin is just horse dewormer? Remember when the Lancet published a fraudulent paper on hydroxycloroquine?

Remember when the WHO said covid doesn't spread person to person? Remember when Pelosi said to go into chinatown at the beginning of the pandemic? That sounds like it qualifies as dangerous misinformation.

Remember when Kamala encouraged Americans to not get vaccinated because it was the "Trump vaccine"? I guess that one is only okay if you're in the right political party.

Remember 15 days to slow the spread? Remember when we were told life would go back to normal after 2 jabs? After 3? After 4? Daily pills?

If you're going to play this game there won't be many politicians or institutions left on social media.

That article from the Washington Post supports my comment on the behavior of politicians and is a hit piece on POTUS 45. If, as you claim, there are large portions of the country that believe the political 'narrative' then this article is a black pill for those that don't. https://thefreethoughtproject.com/poll-40-percent-americans-justify-violence-against-government

Perhaps I was not clear. Trump and MTG and others have been pushing a narrative of lies that harm a large portion of the US. Indeed the polls showing that some of those people want a violent revolution (eg. the boomers who sit at home on their retirement checks that we'll never see and are happy to answer polls) is evidence that the lies are working. They are making people believe in false narratives.

I'm trying to say that all politicians lie and make outrageous statements for votes, red or blue. You and others claim that POTUS 45 and MTG are harming a large portion of the country. Is that as bad as POTUS 46 and Congressmen saying they'd use the military against citizen militias? That is about as ridiculous as anything that came out of 45's mouth. I'm not red or blue, I vote for whom I please and not along party lines. Covid has become a tool used to control the masses and I avoid the propaganda whenever possible. I pay the price for that, but It's my body and my life, not the governments'. The jab is a personal choice, not something mandated by authoritarians.

I see this argument regularly on Saidit and I share everyone's concerns about corruption on the Hill &c. Problem is that we should see that the most corrupt of this group (especially in the GOP) have a very long track record of it, whereas there are a few who are actively trying to pass bills that could benefit the 99%.

Covid has become a tool used to control the masses

This has become a kind of catch-phrase, whereas there is absolutey no evidence for it. There is also a long history of virology that should be considered.

The jab is a personal choice, not something mandated by authoritarians.

If however you want to work among others in a society, you would naturally choose to get the jab and not help spread the virus. One's government is indeed mandated by voters to keep voters safe. And those who are unvaccinated can stay indoors until or unless they are willing to get vaccinated and thereby join others.

Glad to see you are concerned about corruption the Hill. Problem is government corruption is systemic, Federal to Local to one degree or another. The State I reside in was founded on corruption, it's in the history books. Read a book written by a freedom fighter during the Nazi occupation or a person residing in a Soviet Bloc county in the 60's and you will see near exact comparisons to this vaccine mandate nonsense. The MO is the same, confuse, divide, and destroy those who won't comply with the fear narrative. The vaccine is NOT a end all-be all solution government says it is, we are all different and unique. Look to people qualified to opine on the vaccines, like the inventor of mRNA technology and not a talking head on TV or an influencer on social media and maybe it'll bring a better understanding of the fear porn behind the virus.
