    It’s actually an old fascist trick.

    It’s really effective too. You always know the horrible things you’re doing before anyone else. So you can always beat the opposition to the accusation.

    “You did X!”

    “No I didn’t, why would you even think that?”

    Months (or years) later when there’s an investigation…

    “Hey wait, you actually did X!”

    “You’re obviously making it up, everyone knows it’s what you did. People have been talking about you doing it for years!”
