Winners, Losers and Links
Winners
Censors - This week saw an orchestrated op to push for the removal of any counter-narrative messaging.
Left - Any anti-misinformation moves will hurt the right. The left makes narratives and deem what is official. Ask Project Veritas.
Scandis - Their nations are relaxing lockdowns and doing the opposite of the Anglosphere. Nordic model for the win.
Losers
Skeptics - Anyone questioning Big Brother will be silenced.
Anti-CRT Parents - This is the latest overreach in the domestic war on terror. While this does mold an opposition into a coherent force, the power of the FBI is intense.
Police Unions - If the FBI will raid the NYPD union office, they can do it to any. Once again, the feds might be molding a coherent opposition which would have remained disorganized and lacked unity.
