Serial came out with another podcast. The improvement association. It is about a group trying to get a block of black people to vote in rural North Carolina. Its pretty good. This group has been tarnished by unsubstantiated claims of illegal ballots. These allegations have all been investigated, and found to be without substance.
The right actually rigged an election. Guilty, they needed to redo the whole thing in 2018. It made national news back then. Trump even campaigned the night before the election.
Maybe you heard this later on too. Unsubstantiated claims about stealing elections. It is interesting. Once something gets screamed about enough it is hard to turn off the noise.
Anyway it's about a group trying to build political power for blacks in an area that knows all about Jim Crow. This group has been around a while, so there is political infighting. I just go back to you scream a lie enough it is bound to be considered the truth.
The right actually rigged the election. Guilty, but they didn't seem to get in any trouble. I think the guy who brainstormed the false ballots did. White people are more mad at the group who they consider just as Guilty, just not proven. Proven in their own minds however.
That's how fox News and others created a whole stink about the Presidential election being stolen. Scream a lie enough people will believe it to be true.
I think they are on the wrong side of this, and will pay a price. When fringe right news becomes the accepted truth for a group, they will never get numbers. Cuz its based on bullshit. Think Joseph McCarthy. Oh he had his day in the sun, but ended up being a dishonorable pos in the end. The truth has a way of winning in the end. See Germany circa 1933-1945.
I have no idea what circa means. I know it is used in that way, or close to it. :)
I don't do podcasts all too often, but if serial comes out with one I jump on it. It is always informative, and makes you think. Also exposes the ugly truth in most cases.
I spose.
Laterzzzzzzz. :)
