1. La Desinformación como Estrategia Central del Partido Republicano.
Existe una percepción generalizada de que el Partido Republicano utiliza la desinformación de manera sistemática y deliberada como una herramienta fundamental para ganar elecciones y mantener el poder. Se considera que su supervivencia política depende de crear una realidad alternativa para su base electoral.
- Republicans need disinformation because they’d be exposed as frauds without it. So many who vote for them often don’t know what’s really going on.
- This is why republicans will fight to the death to prevent anything that tracks or calls out disinformation. They are completely dependent on it.
- Disinformation rules the gop and their maga minions. It is their tool of choice for unfettered control.
- The entire republican party would be lost without their constant war on the truth. Being able to freely spread disinformation is essential to their survival, which is why they're now shutting down anything that either studies or fights it.
- 1/ why are democrats scrambling to counter disinformation while republicans act like it’s not real? because the gop doesn’t see disinfo as a threat. They see it as a strategy. They’re not just tolerating lies. They’re building their power on them.
2. La Ineficacia Demócrata: Críticas a la Falta de Respuesta.
Una crítica recurrente es la incapacidad o falta de voluntad del Partido Demócrata para contrarrestar eficazmente las campañas de desinformación. Se les acusa de ser pasivos, lentos y de no entender la naturaleza de la guerra informativa, lo que resulta en derrotas electorales y la pérdida de la narrativa política.
- Dems get smoked by disinformation…when will they learn, get tougher, and fight it. Drives me zonkers.
- Exactly the problem: the dems have done nothing to combat all the rwing disinformation, now also the dem gaslighting and the total collapse of our media! the dems suck!
- What democrats need to do is learn how to combat disinformation. Or they're going to just keep on losing.
- This is what democrats consistently fail to do - get ahead of republican disinformation. I’ve watched this happen since the ‘90s.
- Dems are practically non-existent in combating the disinformation and that is why trump is president.
3. Frustración y Llamados a la Acción: ¿Cómo Combatir la Desinformación?
Ante la inacción percibida, surge una fuerte demanda para que los demócratas adopten tácticas más agresivas. Las sugerencias van desde "inundar la zona con hechos" hasta la controvertida idea de crear su propia maquinaria de desinformación para nivelar el campo de juego, reflejando una profunda desesperación.
- Do you want dems to start lying like the gop? create a dem disinformation machine?
- Please have the party fight the war on disinformation. Social media platforms have ended fact checking. If dems ever want to win again they need to fight the massive amounts of disinformation every day. Flood the zone with facts.
- We need to help the democrats get some serious counter-disinformation capabilities and tactics up and running. There's an information war going, and only one side is fighting right now.
- Dear democrats, it's the messaging, stupid. Learn how to fight disinformation with a clear, resonant strategy. Hint: key word is "fight".
- Dems should do exactly what republicans do. Sabotage the country and blame republicans for everything. Hack and release. Flood social media with information. It doesn't even have to be disinformation because republicans are so fucking vile.
4. Guerra Asimétrica: La Lucha de la Verdad Contra la Propaganda.
El ecosistema de desinformación republicano crea un campo de batalla asimétrico donde la verdad por sí sola no es suficiente para ganar. Se argumenta que los demócratas están perdiendo la guerra informativa porque no han adaptado sus métodos para combatir un adversario que no juega con las mismas reglas de la realidad y los hechos.
- Agree that the gop disinformation ecosystem is depressingly effective. It sets up an asymmetrical battlefield, but if dems don’t find a way to counter it, we are lost.
- America is drowning in disinformation and propaganda. Republicans have also been engaged in mendacity and asymmetrical information warfare for decades.
- You can’t fight disinformation with disinformation. You’re only going to end up with voters who have absolutely no idea what reality is. That’s the weapon of the enemy.
- The truth by itself is not an effective way to combat disinformation. Otherwise disinformation would be useless. It's about how its delivered. And dems are losing the information war badly.
- Dems are losing the disinformation war. Gop has a 3 decade head start w/fox. Dems are better by every measure but low information voters are gullible & lap up the right wing bullshit.
