When the anonymity of the Internet meets the coverage of political parties then the situation resembles a “mud” that leaves scars everywhere…
With the tactic of “mud on the fan” and the “mud” maintained through the anonymity of the Internet, it is difficult to clean up. All it takes is to be targeted. Everything else is made easy, all the more so at a time when conspiracy theories are now being propagated by political parties that seem to be invested in the various “spammers.”
Considering polls that show three in ten believe – or don’t rule out – that we are being spammed, and the fact that the Internet offers anonymity that adds to an extreme toxic environment dominated by the muck and the sludge produced in it, it is easy to create a climate that fosters conspiracy theories.
The “what are they hiding from us” question now sticks in all cases. All it takes is for someone to be targeted and asked to prove they are not an elephant. They all fall over and start practicing the art of character assassination. Let’s see for example what happened to the rector of the EAP after the announcement was made regarding the degree of the ND MP Dimitris Markopoulos.
In X and on social media in general, he was found… blamed for why the NAP made this clarification. His picture started circulating and a question was raised as to why he did it.He found himself in the crosshairs of internet professionals with the mud falling on the fan.
And somewhere in there the usual “what are they hiding from us?” began as questions began to be raised as to why this announcement came out and the MP’s degree has not been displayed. This is the tactic that appeals to any sprayer looking to find out what they are hiding from us. This is the tactic, after all, is how the beatings and the supposed cover-up came into our lives. Because it’s easy to blame someone, but hard to pick up on it because you can’t do it for someone else since you’ll be exposed.
This is how the “yes but” theories of “yes but” and that there’s something the government wants to “hide from us” begin. Easy solutions that don’t need a lot of words, unlike those who have to explain that they are not elephants.
The whole thing, however, is based on something else. That there are political parties that are quick to adopt the theories by officially reproducing the most extreme scenarios. And these are assisted by the media, creating a political climate outside of politics.
