I no longer trust a SINGLE narrative of past seeing the extent of lies/fake news/misinformation even in this Info Age.

Thank God for Technology. Thank God for the internet. Thank God for mobile devices. Thank God for social media.

When Hassan Sheekh and Shariif camps both write AT THE SAME TIME two different accusations of the same thing

1. Hassan says Farmaajo is attacking our hotel
2. Sheikh Sharif Chief of Staff IN THE SAME HOTEL says Farmaajo is attacking our security near the Hotel

And warlord Indhacade was just interviewed BY INDEPENDENT PUBLIC MEDIA showing he and a couple of his militias with heavy weapons had "taken over" public space

and COMPROMISED Hassan Bariise writes for AP complete misinformation (literally engaging in textbook definition of SELECTIVE OMISSION; he only presents the madasha accusation without disclaimer or factcheck WHILE totally omitting public, verifiable recorded armed warlord declaring insurrection taking over public property)

And socalled believable, important members of society from Ainte and Abdirashid Hashi and all these other people who one assumes are legitimate critics who otherwise are standing pillars of society COMPLETELY PUSH THE VERY CLEARLY AND OBVIOUSLY FAKE MISINFORMATION

And the Madasha candidates of ex presidents and important former leaders write a letter affixing their signature CONTAINING THE SAME FAKE MISINFORMATION WHICH WAS FACT CHECKED ON LIVE TELEVISION THE VERY NIGHT THIS OCCURED

Only finally now acknowledge through Sheikh Sharif THAT THE GOV HAD RESPONDED TO AN ARMED DISTURBANCE CAUSED BY INDHACADE signifying their strategy of Misinformation failed. Though the point of Shekh Sharif was a fake pivot "Indhacade doesn't represent us" THE REAL TAKE AWAY IS YOUR MISINFORMATION FAILED AND YOU CAN'T LIE ABOUT WHAT TOOK PLACE

I no longer trust A SINGLE f-king NARRATIVE OF THE PAST wallahul cadiim. Not a single f-king one.

If these people including what is obviously COMPROMISED media were so shockingly brazen about spreading Misinformation being fact checked by kids on TIKTOK for God'ssake, how can anyone trust any f-king record of the Somali past?

I don't.

State no neutrality going forward about past narratives. I don't disbelief anything, but even more importantly I WON'T f-king BELIEVE anything especially accusatory.

From the Tigray Fake Somali soldeirs story to this and everything else---I swear the biggest consequence of this is just how many of us are now awake to Misinformation in Somali affairs.

When it comes to disseminating disinformation/misinformation on an unprecedented scale, a skeptic may argue you, yourself, are no less prolific.

Voltage,

Your pretentious use of flawed analysis and prose is a hallmark of amateur propaganda.

Your like an educated yet deranged version of Sahal.

There is no one who does as much misinformation and twisting the facts and insulting anybody that oppose Farmaajo’s dictatorship tendencies and name calling like traitors, foreign agents, paid actors, Kenyan, TPLF as Xoogaga wadaniyiinta Farmaajo

Was it the fact I said "Compromised" Hassan Bariise?

Ohh, sad.

Let me be blunt.

I don't think it should come as a surprise the conduct uncloaked by Sahan/Oppo desperation at the inability to stop Farmaajo has exposed there is a potential controversy on high level about the "integrity" of an industry---at least as far as Somalia is concerned.

Furthermore, there has been "grooming" on a wide latitude, but also part of which included infíltration of not only Somali Twitter sphere and Facebook, but also Somali forums including this one.

Save it. You are wasting your time on me.

Entities with incredible power with a lot of resources have been recruited to sniff the trail---according to chatter.

The handler sicced them because they are still under the impression what is so obviously already noticed has to be guarded.

It's like the town whore worrying about propriety.

It is not a secret anymore 💡
