Winning and Losing isn’t the case here. What we are witnessing is Steve Bannon’s strategy of “flooding the zone with shit” for the purpose of fragmentation, division, and destruction of people’s lives and not serving, everyone a loser. Despite all the incontrovertible facts at the center of this “Our” story, no matter how clear a case the Yes23 makes, it will be highly likely that no single version of the truth according to the pollsters is ever going to be accepted.

We’re in an age of manufactured nihilism.

The issue for many people isn’t exactly a denial of truth as such. It’s more a growing weariness over the process of finding the truth at all. And that weariness leads more and more people to abandon the idea that the truth is knowable.

It’s  “manufactured” and a consequence of a deliberate strategy. It was perfectly distilled by Steve Bannon, the former head of Breitbart News and chief strategist for Donald Trump. “The Democrats don’t matter,” Bannon reportedly said in 2018. “The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with shit.”

The No campaign doing just that and with x 10 the money being spent than by Yes23

Bannon articulated the zone-flooding philosophy well, but he did not invent it. In our time, it was pioneered by Vladimir Putin in post-Soviet Russia. Putin uses the media to engineer a fog of disinformation, producing just enough distrust to ensure that the public can never mobilize around a coherent narrative.(Vox 2020)

The cliché about disunity being death in politics sure doesn’t apply to the No campaign. It’s all over the place, and it’s winning.
