'election denial' is considered to be one of those....

Think 600K bullet votes is a fabrication. And Snopes says Starlink wasn't news. Silent Type Nov 16 #6

I'm not sure the starlink connection being news is the issue... Think. Again. Nov 16 #11

If I remember correctly Linda ladeewolf Nov 16 #12

Bradblog.com / Bradcast (Brad Friedman) has picked this up too nmmi Nov 16 #8

DailyKos and Brad somebody? Not my gotos for truth. When Harris, Biden, Democratic governors, etc., join Silent Type Nov 16 #9

Let's hope the letter to Harris works then! Think. Again. Nov 16 #13

Fine, I'm skeptical too. I have listened to a lot of Brad - he was on when I did my jogging a couple of years ago nmmi Nov 16 #23

Thanks, if any of this is true, we need to be sure it's being covered by legitimate people. Think. Again. Nov 16 #35

4 years ago, misinformation would be charitable. Silent Type Nov 16 #40

4 years ago was the last presidential election. markodochartaigh Nov 16 #41

And software has been changed since. So, it is ancient history. Silent Type Nov 16 #42

No. If one reads the Politico article markodochartaigh Nov 16 #43

Elon Musk was promoting same conspiracy theory right up to Nov 5th. Silent Type Nov 16 #46

I suppose that Musk would also markodochartaigh Nov 16 #47

No, I'm saying some of you have changed your tune on his allegations and so did Musk when trump won. Silent Type Nov 16 #49

Are there any clues as to why this article "disappeared" from Kos and search engines etc.? Emrys Nov 16 #14

I have no idea why it was so difficult to find earlier today... Think. Again. Nov 16 #15

I wasn't necessarily looking to fuel conspiracy theories (who knows? they may be well founded) Emrys Nov 16 #17

At first I thought it was just blocked to non-subscribers of Kos (I don't subscribe)... Think. Again. Nov 16 #19

Brad blog actually has much more in depth info than the kos article questionseverything Nov 16 #29

Here's a link to the BradBlog coverage... Think. Again. Nov 16 #36

Thanks ! Think. Again. Nov 16 #25

That's the different article I said upthread that I'd found searching on Kos Emrys Nov 16 #53

Thank you. AllyCat Nov 16 #24

Daily Kos staff obviously killed the post as "violating rules against conspiracy theories".... Jack Valentino Nov 16 #48

I believe Daily Kos has it up live now though, so it probably wasn't "killed" by them. Think. Again. Nov 16 #51

That's a different diary on the same topic. They DID kill Jack Valentino Nov 17 #54

I wonder why? Copyright issues maybe? Think. Again. Nov 17 #55

NOOOOOO--- because DK has strict rules against "conspiracy theories", and Jack Valentino Nov 17 #58

So by re-writing the post, they were able to bypass that somehow? Think. Again. Nov 18 #59

This also needs to be communicated to Marc Elias.... Sogo Nov 16 #52

Yes, the video shows that Elias is very concerned that we don't do what rightwingers did in 2020. Think. Again. Nov 17 #56
