Election Fraud Update aka The Media Fracture

Time is ticking on any action related to election fraud. It is also ticking on the legitimacy of a Biden presidency. The narrative of a stolen election exceeds the Russiagate narrative that went on for 4 years. It won't be as loud as Russiagate, but it will be more devastating if half the country believes there is legitimate evidence of fraud. This isn't a fake FISA warrant cooked up by the CIA and FBI, it is Americans with math PhDs in some cases showing there are statistical anomalies worth investigating. I'm not sure if the media can handle the statistical arguments being made. All bias aside, major media is aimed at the mass market. They need stories like fake ballots stuffed in machines. They aren't good at explaining what an algorithm is, let alone how it works. There's no panic about fraud memes because it probably won't stop Biden from taking office, but there is a rapidly closing window on killing the election fraud meme.

Election fraud is the topic that can propel America into two distict media cultures. Right now I'd wager a distinct right media sphere will emerge next year, with Trump being the "tipping point" that puts it over the top. People following mainstream media have no idea what is going on with election fraud. Meanwhile, if you are interested, you have to subscribe to the YouTube channel of Right Side Broadcasting Network, althoguh I suspect they will be banned from YouTube sometime next year. Or you need to be following the right Twitter accounts and blogs, many of them are already being suspended or banned. (If you are right-of-center, or left-of-center and prone to disagreeing with the establshment on topics such as war and trade, you should already have backup plans for social media.) Most right-wingers still turn on NBC News or flip on CNN, or even watch Fox News. Next year, I think the competing right-wing networks will finally achieve signal dominance.

Fox News does not have signal dominance. Even Tucker Carlson's program, the most right-wing opinion show on major networks, spends a large amount of time discussing topics driven by mainstream media narratives. There were news items such as Hunter Biden's laptop that people watching mainstream news didn't know about, but most Fox News viewers discuss the same issues as MSNBC viewers. The American media environment is like a giant, wilder episode of Crossfire. Next year, right-wing media will be sustain its own narratives. It's very possible President Trump could be kicked off Twitter. I suspect Facebook will hold out longer because it has more Boomer users. Should he leave Twitter, he would take at least 20 million people with him. If there was a split with Facebook, it's possible 50 million users could go. My sense is the tech and infrastructure exists, but a rapid shift in media consumption habits is difficult, paricularly with older people who lean Trump. Cord cutting is slowest, social media adoption, etc.

Where do things stand with election fraud? Aside from all the state election hearings that were broadcast live by RSBN from November 25 through last week, which produced many claims of mistakes or fraud, people have been busy running statistical models on the election and testing Domninion voting machines.

Smoking Gun, Part 2: Ratio Transfers Proved; Entire Algorithm Reversed, net 200,353 votes for Biden

That the final hijacked state of all precincts can have their total votes changed to a uniform number, such as 20,000 total votes per precinct, and the percentage remains the same (14.65%), which is proof that a simple linear algebra algorithm was adjusting requisite precinct totals against a flat polarized template.

The precincts seized more than once were most likely to be early in alphanumeric order, proving the software takes the first available precinct from an ordered alphanumeric list by County, Precinct.

There is much more at the link, plus videos. A layman's explanation is in this 40min video.
Another mathematician has explained part of the video more clearly.
I haven't digested any of this yet because I don't have the time to keep up with it. Where do I go for a distilled opinion? On the other side of the aisle, how many people who are happy the election is over and Trump is gone, will spend any time analyzing what PhD-level mathematicians are reporting? I'm not fully inside the right-wing media bubble, but can you see how people with limited time for news media consumption could be sucked into these topics? Evening news programs would need to spend 10 to 15 minutes covering only one slice of this issue. Even if you don't believe any of it in the slightest, understand that millions of people are consuming this media. What they perceive as the otehr side's response is dismissal at best or censorship at worst.

Back in 2018 I posted, Russia Collusion Narrative Dead, Long Live Chinese Collusion! We will find out very soon if I was correct in saying it would be bipartisan. If not, right-wing media will have another topic that it can devote years of programming to because it's such as deep well.

Here's a video clip from China that's going around on social media. It might make it mainstream by tomorrow, but probably later in the week. There's nothing in this video that surprises me, but it is really good propaganda for Trump voters and sympathizers (people who might personally dislike Trump, voted against him for various reasons, but support the main thrust of his rheorical policy package). Di Dongsheng of Renmin University explains how China was able to solve diplomatic issues very quickly from Clinton to Obama, but had trouble with Trump. Mainly, he says it is because Wall Street did not have control over Trump. What is notable is this speech can be found online in China, you can see it here: 翟东升对话各路大佬:中国金融开放带来哪些风险和机遇?, but the part where he gives some details about the Wall Street executive in his anecdote is scrubbed. Jump to 46 minutes and you'll see it skips over that part. I only mention that because it makes the larger point far more credible, that CCP censors removed descriptive information about this person.

The charge he makes is different that with Russiagate, but it is far more substantial. There are Americans high up in the government and in business who put Chinese interests ahead of American interests and they are back in control with Biden. Chinese political experts are openly talking about it. This is akin to Putin going on television in Russia in 2016 and openly saying he did an election deal with Trump. It's different because this is true, whereas Russiagate was fake. It's different because Russiagate was a far more acutely serious charge, whereas this is a broad statement about generalized corruption in America. Still, it confirms the narrative. China collusion is going to be a huge story and at the very least, any time U.S. workers or companies lose out to China, it will be assumed the intentional choice of America's ruling class.

To end on a lighter note, here's 4chan laying out the timeline of Trump's recent activities in the context of overturning election results by whatever means are necessary.
Update: I saw this article that makes similar points about the media failure post-election. Why do people think the election was rigged
But we do not live in a free, open, and civilized place. Our press is violently biased and all our media of communication are oppressively censored by a well-coordinated and censorious cabal of progressive blackguards. So this election was always going to invite unprecedented skepticism whatever the result. The only antidote to that would have been unimpeachable transparency in the process, which we did not have. The perpetrators of this obfuscation have to live with the consequences of apparent impropriety whatever the ultimate result of this sad affair.

FRANKLY what is the evidence for the baseless claim that this was a free, fair, and secure election?
