November Morning
Some bare trees I’ve seen
Most however, are still rather green
I start my day with lemon & honey
To have a whole day of energy
It”s stronger than coffee 💛☕

How Republicans Fed a Misinformation Loop About the Pelosi Attack – The New York Times
The flood of falsehoods showed how ingrained misinformation has become inside the G.O.P., where the reflexive response of the rank and file — and even a few prominent figures — to anything that might cast a negative light on the right is to deflect with more fictional claims, creating a vicious cycle that muddies facts, shifts blame and minimizes violence.
It happened after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, which was inspired by Mr. Trump’s lie of a stolen election, and in turn gave rise to more falsehoods, as Republicans and their right-wing allies tried to play down, deny or invent a different story for what happened, including groundlessly blaming the F.B.I. and antifa. Mr. Pelosi’s attacker is said to have believed some of those tales.
“This is the dynamic as it plays out,” said Brian Hughes, a professor at American University who studies radicalism and extremism. “The conspiracy theory prompts an act of violence; that act of violence needs to be disavowed, and it can only be disavowed by more conspiracy theories, which prompts more violence.”
The Justice Department moved swiftly to bring criminal charges against the suspect in the attack, David DePape, 42, who prosecutors said broke into the Pelosi home intending to kidnap Ms. Pelosi and shatter her kneecaps, and assaulted her husband with a hammer, leaving him with a cracked skull. The San Francisco district attorney said it was imperative for prosecutors to present the facts to the public, given the misinformation circulating widely about the case.
But by then, it was far too late. In a pattern that has become commonplace, a parade of Republicans — helped along by right-wing media personalities including the Fox New host Tucker Carlson, and prominent people including the newly installed Twitter owner Elon Musk, the world’s wealthiest man — had already abetted the viral spread of lies about the attack, distorting the account of what happened before facts could get in the way. Finding life on far-right websites and the so-called dark web, conspiracy theories and falsehoods leaped from the fringes to the mainstream.
THIS IS HOW CONSPIRACIES START: nytimes
Although I thought it said “share,” I can’t get a word of it onto my post. But it does go on and on with minute referencing just where and how many of those MAGA stories originate and flourish and the perpetrators. If you’re at all curious about how, go read this long story. You’ll probably want to copy it on your computer. Hint: The facts are related to the Paul Pelosi attack.
Trying one more time to get a reference, by copying a paragraph: “The disinformation surrounding the attack on Mr. Pelosi presented many of the standard elements of alt-right conspiracy theories, which relish a culture of “do your own research,” casting skepticism on official accounts, and tend to focus on lurid sexual activities or issues related to children, often driven by a fear of society becoming immoral.”

Be flexible with your body, mind, and soul
Whatever physical practice we do to be more flexible is useless if we do not allow our minds and souls to welcome change, flexibility, and commitment.

♫ Louie Louie ♫ (Redux) — Filosofa’s Word

I’ve played this one twice … in 2018 and 2020 … so it’s time for a redux! Last time I played it, the version by The Kingsmen was of not-so-great quality, so tonight I went in search of a better one. With my poor hearing, it’s hard for me to tell, but hopefully this one […]
