Accuse The Other Side Of That Which You’re Guilty
As shown here, this concept far predates the modern Republican party, but, to my mind, it became their MO in the early days of the Trump administration, surrounding the phrase “fake news.”
Trump’s critics, including most of the mainstream news, pointed out, quite correctly, that most of what came out of the president’s mouth was completely false, and dubbed it “fake news.” When Trump saw how effective this was, he turned it around, and began using the term to describe the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, and all other participants in print and digital media that didn’t report the news as he wanted them to.
Another example of Goebbels’ tactic, albeit a much smaller story,
David Todeschini, 70, runs a medium-sized channel on Bitchute, an alternative video sharing site like YouTube, called Net4TruthUSA.
In several of his videos, Todeschini has said Democrats are pedophiles. In the title of one recent video, Todeschini wrote that President Joe Biden was a “cho-mo,” which is prison slang for pedophile.
QAnon followers claim that there is a “deep state” of senior Democratic Party politicos, CEOs, and celebrities that run a sex cult involving children. There is no evidence for this theory.
However, records show that Todeschini is in fact a pedophile. In 1990, he was convicted of coercing an 8-year-old boy into sexual acts in 1987, as noted on the New York state sex offenders register.
