Came home yesterday to find my partner fuming that someone had been whipping up a campaign against an old pub being converted into a mosque by putting a glossy leaflet through door. He usually leaves the fuming to me…but this time it had inspired him to put in writing his support of the planned mosque to the planning department. We are not even in the same postcode as this pub. Who is funding this subtle but glossy Islamophobia? #Norwich #Planning #islamophobia https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/26497737.mystery-surrounds-anti-mosque-leaflets-posted-norwich/?ref=cprfa

    @JugglingWithEggs@mstdn.social Astroturfing is known about now, and its effectiveness is going to inflect soon, so that the presence of a glossy leaflet, rather than making people credulously read on, will make them recognize that what the thing is about, it is serving the interests of Capital. None of us can afford glossy printing for ideas.
