The rise in Islamophobia (a made up non-existent phenomenon) is all caused by those pesky Ruskies.
A global network of anti-Muslim activists is using Twitter bots, fake news and the manipulation of images to influence political discourse, new analysis reveals.
Many have recorded significant growth in their social media followings over the past year, co-ordinating to push the message that Islam is an “imminent threat” to western society. Researchers from the anti-racist organisation Hope Not Hate found that the impact of tweets from one controversial US activist, Pamela Geller, who is banned from the UK, is magnified by 102 bots, automated or semi-automated accounts that automatically tweet or retweet their content.
Because, of course, it is impossible that we could have done our own research and reached our own conclusions about the Religion of Peace[sic]. It’s just not possible that seeing news clips of Islamists flying aircraft into buildings, blowing themselves and others up and driving vehicles into crowds while screaming “allahu akbar” couldn’t possibly have caused anyone to consider whether these are, actually, the adherents of the Religion of Peace[sic].
And then, there are those who live in the shadow of places where they feel like aliens in their own country. No, of course not. It is all Russian bots that are doing it. Fake news, nothing to see here. We cannot possibly be reaching our own conclusions based upon evidence. Fuck no. We are all in the thrall of Russian bots.
Is there anything that Russian hackers can’t do? Soon they will become as omnipotent as climate change in their ability to cause imaginary disasters.
The Russian hackers created climate change to destroy us all. Or did climate change create the Russian hackers?
I wonder how those of us who don’t use twitter at all, ever reach an opinion?
Oh, yeah, however did I manage?
Q: Why are MSM, Politicians, NGOs & SJWs so pro RoP and anti-Christian when so many of RoP actions & beliefs are exactly what MSM, Politicians, NGOs & SJWs loathe & campaign against?
That’s a question I have often posed but have yet to have it answered. Certainly I’ve received replies – generally dismissing me as an islamaphobic racist for having the cultural insensitivity to even harbour such thoughts, let alone express them to others.
I’ll answer it for you Ted (and Pcar)
The answer is that all these groups have one thing in common – the destruction of Western Civilisation. Most of them want this, because they have this ridiculous misplaced “guilt” and the ROP want this, because they’ve been doing so for the past 1400 years.
Basically, the Frankfurt School believed that as long as an individual had the belief – or even the hope of belief – that his divine gift of reason could solve the problems facing society, then that society would never reach the state of hopelessness and alienation that they considered necessary to provoke socialist revolution. Their task, therefore, was as swiftly as possible to undermine the Judaeo-Christian legacy. To do this they called for the most negative destructive criticism possible of every sphere of life which would be designed to de-stabilize society and bring down what they saw as the ‘oppressive’ order. Their policies, they hoped, would spread like a virus—‘continuing the work of the Western Marxists by other means’ as one of their members noted.
To further the advance of their ‘quiet’ cultural revolution – but giving us no ideas about their plans for the future – the School recommended (among other things):
1. The creation of racism offences.
2. Continual change to create confusion
3. The teaching of sex and homosexuality to children
4. The undermining of schools’ and teachers’ authority
5. Huge immigration to destroy identity.
6. The promotion of excessive drinking
7. Emptying of churches
8. An unreliable legal system with bias against victims of crime
9. Dependency on the state or state benefits
10. Control and dumbing down of media
11. Encouraging the breakdown of the family
One of the main ideas of the Frankfurt School was to exploit Freud’s idea of ‘pansexualism’ – the search for pleasure, the exploitation of the differences between the sexes, the overthrowing of traditional relationships between men and women. To further their aims they would:
• attack the authority of the father, deny the specific roles of father and mother, and wrest away from families their rights as primary educators of their children.
• abolish differences in the education of boys and girls
• abolish all forms of male dominance – hence the presence of women in the armed forces
• declare women to be an ‘oppressed class’ and men as ‘oppressors’
Munzenberg summed up the Frankfurt School’s long-term operation thus: ‘We will make the West so corrupt that it stinks.’
The School believed there were two types of revolution: (a) political and (b) cultural. Cultural revolution demolishes from within. ‘Modern forms of subjection are marked by mildness’. They saw it as a long-term project and kept their sights clearly focused on the family, education, media, sex and popular culture.

Nisakiman, the general tone of that “list of things to do” from the Frankfurt school seems strongly reminiscent of some other thing I’ve seen in the past. It took me a while to remember it but it’s “Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion” or somesuch — which I believe has been exposed as a fake, no?

The idea that there is a Zionist plot for global domination as detailed in the “Protocols” has been shown to be a fabrication used to justify Anti-Semitism. The use of cultural Marxism, based on the ideas of the Frankfurt School, to undermine Western Civilisation is a reality. There may not be a central plot, but the various hard left groups understand the methods and the goal. Just as we have Dhimmis who happily work with Muslims to undermine our society, there are many moderates across the political spectrum who work with cultural Marxists as they seek to destroy Western values.
