first article i saw, but a quick look at their website shows they have no criticism of capital, its just another one of those little bougie groups that funnel people away from any sort of real analysis for a showy little minute of ‘direct action’

this sounds stereotypically lib instead of a straight up psyop

unless you consider libness to be a psyop, i’d have to agree then

As mentioned above, Aileen Getty is one of several heirs to the $5.4 billion Getty fortune, which the family acquired through their oil company, founded in 1942. While the company no longer exists today, having been sold in the early 2000s, the money certainly still does, and so people have started questioning if, in reality, Aileen Getty still has active links to the oil industry.

However, unless Getty is investing in oil ventures so secretive that there are no records of them available to the public, the opposite appears to be true. In 2012, she founded the Aileen Getty Foundation, which, according to the foundation’s objectives, “supports a wide range of local and global organizations and initiatives that enhance the environment, our communities and the lives of individuals through innovation, preservation, connection and kindness.”

I’m an outsider to this debate, but even a bourgeoisie publication is saying that a child of an oil family used her inheritance. We can critique the group without repeating lies from the Western press. (unless you have more damning information or a leftist source)

In 1000 years scientists will find the paint residue and people will appreciate it as an interesting historical fact that Stonehenge was once vandalized by a psyop meant to hurt climate change organizing

“Despite our image of Stonehenge as a grey, austere structure, during the late Tupperware/Wrapper Culture at the LTBIIIb-c boundary, local religious cults donned black masks and dyed it a brilliant orange while conducting their rites.”

For one of the parasite in chief with idiot hat’s many useless celebrations they projected a whole bunch of royal worshipping propaganda onto Stonehenge, so as far as I’m concerned this is far less offensive than that.

“Saying random shit from memory” seems to be a recurring problem with Hexbear.

It’s funded by Aileen Getty, whose dad owned Getty Oil (which was bought by Pennzoil who was bought by Shell).

I don’t believe she’s doing a psyop, just a lib doing what libs do.

It’s simply not possible that random people who are genuinely afraid of climate changes are doing irrational things out of fear of climate change. (sarcasm) “There must be some evil rational actor forcing them to do this so that they make ME look bad.”

Declaring this to be a psyop recenters the narrative around yourself. It makes the narrative not about climate change or people reacting to climate change in irrational ways but instead about themselves. Yesterday it was not even called a “psyop”, people were just calling them feds. Adding “psychological” to the narrative inserts the self into the narrative. It’s twitter brain.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
