I think it's great. Let them defend their record. If we had an objective media, they'd also ask a critic of the WEF to write a piece, but of course we do not.

You may have heard the phrase. It started life as a screenshot, culled from the internet by an anonymous antisemitic account on the image board 4chan. “Own nothing, be happy – The Jew World Order 2030,″ said the post

How typical. They found one anti-Semite complaining about it, so obviously, anyone who dislikes them is a nutsi!

Having read it, it's not actually defending the WEF. Only throwing the kitchen sink and attempting to attack people who criticize it by means of guilt by association.

The board, which is completely unmoderated, was also used by operators of a Russian propaganda campaign. The intent was apparently to spread disinformation in a bid to stir far-right outrage about COVID-19 and perpetuate domestic extremism.

Recent analysis explains how this context brought extremists together “using rhetoric that trivialized National Socialism and the Holocaust.” This same far-right, Holocaust-denying cohort latched onto the Great Reset

Trudeau recently criminalized not just denying the holocaust, but also "downplaying or trivializing" the holocaust. 2 years in prison.

So it's not surprising that now what they are doing is explaining how any oppositional "rhetoric" to the WEF, or any other liberal policy/plot, is actually downplaying or trivializing the holocaust.

"downplaying or trivializing" the holocaust. 2 years in prison.

I had no idea. A sure enough police state.

Nothing brings extremists together better than a singular, despicable enemy to hate together.

Next up, why Trump is Ultra Mega Giga Hitler.

And it's on 4chan. So it would literally take less time to post it themselves than it would to find it.
