      Heh I may or may not have peeled off one “certain Trump vote” to a “Fuck it, not voting for anyone” so far

      I’ve thought about rerouting their Internet through my network via VPN and pin my own HTTPS cert to their devices so I can alter Faux News “articles” on the fly with a ChatGPT integration maybe. Wouldn’t be able to alter videos, but might be able to slow them down to dialup speeds so they just get frustrated with it and just lean more on the written stuff

    Do one better: Get control of their internet network access and start straight DNS black-holing whole swaths of misinformation on the internet. Tell them you don’t know what’s wrong and to complain to the service provider.

    You can do this easily with a Pi-Hole under the guise of it being an “ad blocker,” and slowly, over time, making more sites unresponsive.

    Make a Pi-Hole group for your own devices that doesn’t have this blocking, so when they question you, you can show them your device and be like “it works for me.”

    It’s kind of the modern equivalent of using parental controls to block FOX News.

    For legal reasons, this is also a joke, because “now that’s what I call gaslighting.”

    As someone who plays the musical instrument called “trumpet”, I ask- no, I beg of you, PLEASE do not use my musical instrument to describe fascists.
