▓ Truth Brigade homepage

h/t Meteor Bllades and Woody Guthrie’s ballad, "Pretty Boy Floyd from Dust Bowl Ballads recorded/released 1940. Group founded August 1, 2021 by Mokurai — Together, We will Fight the Lies--and Win! Propaganda, false characterizations, intentionally misleading messages and outright lies threaten our democracy and even our lives. We can effectively combat disinformation, despite the well-funded machines that drive it. They may have money, but we have truth and we have people. People believe sources they trust. When we share and amplify unified, factual messages to those who trust us, we shift the narrative. When we do this by the thousands--weâre part of the Indivisible Truth Brigade, and we get our country back.

▓ 📁 DK Equity Council Hangout homepage

Staff-diary group founded Sept 15, 2021 by QAMichelle — Latest news and information from and relevant to the DK Equity Council. Editors: Marissa Higgins ~ QAMichelle ~ … Note that there is also a Daily Kos Equity Council staff entity originating July 6, 2020 with one diary posted https://www.dailykos.com/user/Daily%20Kos%20Equity%20Council but without a group-type homepage (usually it just takes modifying the url to https://www.dailykos.com/groups/Daily%20Kos%20Equity%20Council to reach a group’s homepage, but that only gets a 404 page) so this appears to indicate that DKEC is an individual writing persona and this group founded in Sept 2021 is the group itself. If without any clear indication of what the group is “about”. Using the DailyKosEquityCouncil tag makes it clearer that it’s a staff group for anti-racism here at the site.
