The #Liberals have a #candidate problem continued:
“The #Coalition’s (#LNP) election campaign is being dogged by a lengthening list of #CandidateIssues, the latest revelation that the contender (#JeffreyKidney) for the #Melbourne seat of #Wills pleaded #guilty to obtaining financial advantage by #deception and was ordered to pay #fines and #compensation worth more than $10,000.”
The poor quality of candidates is beginning to bite the Liberals.

#Dutton ducks question on #LNP vetting amid concerns over #charge against #Melbourne #candidate.
9’s newspapers reported that the candidate for the seat of #Wills, #JeffreyKidney, pleaded #guilty to obtaining financial advice by #deception in 2024 for a 2019 breach.
Kidney was ordered to pay fines & $10,640 in compensation to the Victorian WorkCover authority but no conviction was recorded against him.
#auspol just another typical LNP member.

Déception à La Bocca – Les Saisies 
Notre expérience à La Bocca a été marquée par une organisation chaotique, un service extrêmement lent et des erreurs dans les commandes. Attente interminable, plats mal préparés et manque de professionnalisme du personnel ont transformé ce qui devait être un repas agréable en véritable épreuve. Une adresse que nous ne recommanderons pas. lire la suite https://jason-edwards.fr/une-experience-extremement-decevante-a-la-bocca-les-saisies/
Deception, Obfuscation & Misdirection
This is a concatenation of posts I originally made in 2016-2017--even more relevant today...
Most are familiar with the concept of #FUD—short for #Fear, #Uncertainty & #Doubt. It summarizes a strategy often used in marketing and political propaganda. Its effects are pernicious, divisive and lead to exploitation. Examples abound. Fear is a strong motivator! To resist FUD one must understand how it is practiced using the principles of #Deception, #Obfuscation and #Misdirection.

YES, THEY MOST CERTAINLY DID.
We know they fed it the entire library of human literary works.
What are among the most common literary work? News, Fiction & Drama.
What are among the most common topics of news, fiction & drama?
Different forms of lies & deception.
Now tell me again they didn’t teach it to lie.

““We are public servants, not Elon’s servants,” one Food and Drug Administration employee told the reporters, adding, “[t]he public deserves to know how dysfunctional, destructive, and deceptive all of this has been and continues to be.””

#DOGE has nothing to do with efficiency; it’s the Trump/Musk Department of Government Evisceration. Firing thousands is about undermining Social Security, privatizing veterans’ healthcare, encouraging tax evasion, and invading our personal privacy. It’s really a sideshow in a multi-ring circus of #deception designed to create the illusion of chainsaw savings with no accountability.

The deeper problems connected with advertising come less from the unscrupulousness of our 'deceivers' than from our pleasure in being deceived, less from the desire to seduce than from the desire to be seduced.
