Swan did not write "wypipo".

Look up the actual quote and do not post fake shit even when your heart is in the right place as it is frequently including this thread.

Counter propaganda works ONLY WHEN it is:

* true and accurate
* clear
* fast

Faking words and stuffing them into people's mouths, especially those making common cause with us, does not work.
