Time Magazine published an article on Thursday  titled “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election” that explains how a supposedly bipartisan group of individuals managed to sway the election. Their version of truth is that they were saving it.

Their work touched every aspect of the election. They got states to change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public and private funding. They fended off voter-suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time. They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line against disinformation and used data-driven strategies to fight viral smears. They executed national public-awareness campaigns that helped Americans understand how the vote count would unfold over days or weeks, preventing Trump’s conspiracy theories and false claims of victory from getting more traction. After Election Day, they monitored every pressure point to ensure that Trump could not overturn the result. “The untold story of the election is the thousands of people of both parties who accomplished the triumph of American democracy at its very foundation,” says Norm Eisen, a prominent lawyer and former Obama Administration official who recruited Republicans and Democrats to the board of the Voter Protection Program.

That’s why the participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it. And they believe the public needs to understand the system’s fragility in order to ensure that democracy in America endures.

So they claim that they were “fortifying the election”, not rigging it. That is very much a matter of viewpoints. What that paragraph reveals though is what we already knew. A group of well funded people across industries did everything they could to guarantee the outcome. Their version of democracy was fortified, not everyone’s.

I have a hard time understanding how changing laws, and manipulating media coverage protects anything. It seems to me like you are instead creating the view of the world that you want and forcing it on everyone else.

They writers at Time breathlessly sing the praises of the group that managed this monstrosity. The entire article reads like they believe the architects of this manipulation were the David against the Goliath of natural thought.

This only shows what we the paupers have been saying for years. A small group of powerful people can use money and connections available only to them, to pull the levers of a normal democracy, and get what they deem as “right.” The next quote from the article shows one of the ways in which they used one of the tools in their box.

The racial-justice uprising sparked by George Floyd’s killing in May was not primarily a political movement. The organizers who helped lead it wanted to harness its momentum for the election without allowing it to be co-opted by politicians.

It was all orchestrated. The riots, the talking points, the videos of righteous anger, the polls, every nightly newscast,  were all theater. The entire show was put on to manipulate those that were not already in the Biden camp. Big tech and the MSM conspired to silence actual news and thought leaders that might prove dangerous to their vision.

This damage cannot be undone. We cannot un-see this. No election from now on can be trusted, now that the curtain has been pulled back. This is the proof of what we have been screaming. The hubris required to say that what they did was right is astounding.  The masses will rightfully never put trust in our system again.
