| Truth Brigade Fight Election Disinformation Call Indivisibles,
As we get closer to the November 8 midterm elections, disinformation is everywhere. Whether we’re looking at the big lie of election theft, scare tactics surrounding trans people in sports, or banning books to rewrite our history, the threat of misinformation is an ever-present danger to our democracy -- just ask the January 6th insurrectionists.
The MAGA Republican playbook is clear: Use whatever story is most convenient to assure their own victory. Truth has never been a cornerstone of their movement. As FiveThirtyEight recently noted, “60 percent of Americans will have an election denier on the ballot this fall.” The majority of our country is faced with the perpetuation of a myth that has been debunked over and over. Lies are not just on our screens, they are on the ballot.
But, how do you fight a lie?
Join the Indivisible Truth Brigade on Wednesday September, 14 from 6:30-8:30 ET/ 3:30-5:30 PT for our Fight Election Disinformation Call to find out.
We will be joined by Dan Pfeiffer (host of Pod Save America and author of Battling the Big Lie: How Fox, Facebook and the MAGA Media are Destroying America) to talk about how lies around voting and elections provide the pathway for bad actors to obtain unearned power. We’ll cover what states, people, and campaigns are most vulnerable and how we can and must disrupt voting-related disinformation.
When lies are on the ballot, we have both a moral and an existential responsibility to stop them from winning. If we do not fight back now, America’s faith in its democracy will face irreparable harm. Join us at the Truth Brigade Fight Election Disinformation Call to learn how.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
