CHINA.🇨🇳

A 2019 document leaked from D&C Think, a think tank based in Beijing, reveals *A LOT* about the U.S. Governors that China considers to be *FRIENDLY* towards the Chinese Communist Party.

The Chinese source is below. It is *revealing.*

BREAKING

CAPITOL SIEGE FACTS.🚨

• FBI alerted Congress
• Ex-Police Chief warned SIX TIMES
• Attack *PRE-PLANNED* (not "incited")
• Dem. removed 'panic buttons'
• Weak National Guard, police presence
• Leftist agitators in crowd
• Protesters 'let in' building

THIS IS ALL SUSPECT.

READ THIS: "I am a pollster and I find this election to be deeply puzzling."

1. "President Trump received more votes than any previous incumbent seeking reelection. He got 11 million more votes than in 2016, the third largest rise in support ever for an incumbent." [Thread 1/13]

NEW YORK.🚨🚨

"THE GOVERNOR... MAY ORDER THE *REMOVAL* AND/OR *DETENTION* OF SUCH A PERSON OR OF A GROUP OF SUCH PERSONS BY ISSUING A SINGLE ORDER.... SUCH PERSON OR GROUP OF PERSONS SHALL BE *DETAINED* IN A MEDICAL FACILITY OR OTHER APPROPRIATE FACILITY"

Tyranny. Period.🔻

"IF A PERSON OR GROUP DETAINED... NEEDS TO BE DETAINED *BEYOND THREE BUSINESS DAYS,* THEY SHALL BE PROVIDED WITH AN ADDITIONAL COMMISSIONER'S ORDER PURSUANT TO SUBDIVISIONS TWO AND EIGHT OF THIS SECTION."

This is not even close to Constitutional. This is CCP-level tyranny.

NY's proposed "law" would not be a law at all. It flagrantly, blatantly & explicitly violates the Fourth Amendment rights of ALL American citizens. This is arrest without due process rights. It is the kind of Intolerable Act our Founders went to war

The great strategist Sun-Tzu instructed, “All warfare is based on deception.”

It appears that our nation's political establishment has ‘declared war’ on our Election System. [Thread]

Instead of demanding transparency & accountability, the U.S. media is aiding this deception.

Instead of asking questions about the U.S. election, it is censoring & suppressing them. This is bizarre journalistic behavior. Americans of all political persuasions should be alarmed.

While we were sleeping, enemies wheeled in Trojan horses in the form of voting machines. The Greeks built these vessels of ruin used in the Trojan War; we acted foolishly, just like the Trojans, and wheeled them into our counties & precincts without knowing what is in them.

What is in them are secretive source codes undoubtedly stitched together like a Frankenstein’s monster.

Nothing is stopping us from concluding the voting machines have Abby Normal brains - regardless of assurance from a DHS private-public partnership functioning as their PR arm.

We are just supposed to take Dominion Voting Systems’ word that it never used Smartmatic’s source codes, even after it bought the Smartmatic subsidiary Sequoia in 2010, right as it bought scandal-plagued Diebold voting systems (a subsidiary of Premiere) in 2010? Sorry. No.

To the person who thinks that they might be autistic. - a thread. /1

I imagine you have gone your entire life wondering why you are different, why you can't seem to understand things the way that others can and why everything just seems so hard. I'm proud of you for getting this far. /2

Part of you might be thinking:
"But if I was autistic, surely it would've been noticed when I was a kid? So maybe I'm making this up."
So many autistic people aren't diagnosed until they are adults, if diagnosed at all. You would not be the first and you won't be the last. /3

"My family and friends don't think that I could be autistic."
People's understandings of autism tend to be based off of the media, which doesn't show every possible presentation of autism, or based off of someone they know, and all autistic people present differently. /4

People's perceptions of autism can also be based off stereotypes, for example, "autistic people can't make eye contact, so you can't be autistic." While this is true for some, it isn't for all, so you can begin to see how one presentation of autism can't possibly fit everyone. /5

The people can always be brought to the bidding...tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the naysayers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.

Hermann Goring

We've seen reports of Yoruba leaders asking President Buhari to stop the war and sack service chiefs immediately as a way of beginning restructuring.Our country is sitting on a keg of gunpowder they claim. Once again partisan hacks want to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

You see, when you are fighting small limited wars there is a natural inclination , on the part of politicians not directly impacted by the war to want to blow things out of proportion. There is a basic disconnection now in this country between the population and the war

....and i find it quite frankly. Frightening. Compared to what was obtainable 2015, the security situation in Nigeria has vastly improved yet the media ..and partisan hacks portray a much more pessimistic narrative.

Consider that in 2015 over 21 Local government areas and 2.6 million Nigerians were cut off from the rest of the country, under the administration of a caliphate in Nigeria for 16 months. A huge chunk of the northeast was no mans country.

"The engineers on my team just want to code. They don't want to have anything to do with product. They just want specs. What do I do?"

1/n Are you asking them do to X *and* do their "day job" as defined by their managers (and frankly your roadmap) ?

If so, start there...

2/n Do they have a reason to believe that doing X will in any way improve the quality of the product and make their lives easier? Have they ever seen X "work" ?

Show don't tell.

3/n Is there average day/week a quagmire of unnecessary meetings, wading through tech debt, struggling to get *anything* to work ... and jumping through process hoops to prove their worth?

If so...no they will not have bandwidth.

4/n How do incentives work on the engineering team? Maybe they want to help, but their "grade" is determined by something altogether different.

"I'd love to, but I am on the hook to deliver [some project] this quarter to make a good impression..."

Talk to eng management.

5/n Have they had any time to practice?

Or did they get thrown into the deep end the first time they were given a shot ... expected to brainstorm on demand, be as vocal as practiced PdMs and designers, and "participate" !

Make it safe to practice. Reasonable expectations.

Horseshoe theory sets off my bs detector & the divisions on the left leave me at a loss for an explanation- Venn diagram? Another shape? What's going on?
Enter @bastardspod! They really break this down & sort it out in a way that helped me out a lot.

Three of their points I found particularly useful in explaining why the horseshoe looks correct to some or why/how some ppl that look left-ish are really extreme right or take that turn (ally with boogaloo or proud boys, for instance?). 2/10

📍as you go farther left, some are more attracted to authoritarianism or violence like those on the right. BUT this is NOT a horseshoe bc the ideals of left & right are starkly different. That's important - this isn't a horseshoe. 3/10

Their examples are Kessler (of Unite the Right) who started in Occupy Wall St NY & Mussolini who started out against imperialism. Seemingly left-ish ppl turned fascist - why? I agree with the hosts when they said if you're anti-authoritarian, you won't end up a fascist. 4/10

📍(surprise!) toxic masculinity (they don't use those words) or wounded masculine pride is a factor. The pod says~getting the shit kicked out of you can push men in a violent authoritarian direction. Feeling disenfranchised like MRAs and white nationalists seems related too. 5/10
