Diabetic Cyborg Life 09/02: Remember False Advertising?
I see Trump, the GOP, and crooks like Alex Jones profiting 100’s of millions of dollars off the big lie of voter fraud in 2020. Isn’t there a law or two that stops that? I know they all hide behind freedom of speech and free expression. Yet, freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences from your words and actions.
I was in journalism school and took an advertising class and the idea of false advertising was covered well.
“False advertisement is untrue or misleading information given to you to get you to buy something, or to come visit their store. Those who make and sell products must honestly present their products, services and prices to you. Here are common examples of false advertising.”
Now lying and claiming fraud in the most secure, freest, most participated in election is by definition is false advertising and fraud. The fact that ignorant GOP/Republicans want lavish millions on con artists is another subject entirely. Just because your chosen useful idiot, Trump, lost doesn’t mean it was “stolen.”
Millions of claims of fraud are used daily to milk money and votes out of fools across the nation, yet that does not mean any of them are true.
Group think and drunken showmanship doesn’t make lies, true.
