Our motivation behind starting this blog was simple;
There was so much misinformation being spread on social media by groups of people campaigning for their favorite candidate, that we had the strong desire to bring truth to those who may be "less skilled at googling" or simply just did not have the time to scour the internet for public records or go on fact finding missions. We unfortunately saw too many people buying into, and vowing to vote for, the twisted rhetoric spewed by these people who claimed to represent certain candidates. It was sickening that information could be so misrepresented, that some members of the general public were being "duped". So we set out to create a blog, full of references, to set the record straight. We had no bias, no intention of endorsing any specific candidate, and no foresight that we'd ever be sitting here having to defend ourselves from lawsuits for defamation and libel. We simply wanted a way to put the truth out there without our comments being silenced and deleted by social media moderators.
Yet, here we are, every article has, unfortunately become, a mission to educate the public in an attempt to undo the lies and twisted statements made by the Larson campaign. Yes, we've been directly threatened with lawsuits, but we still stand here today, in unification, because her campaign consist purely of mud slinging defamatory statements towards Cantu and Singh. Don't believe us? Try yourself asking her a simple question on Facebook or Nextdoor. If your question is not presented in the form of "all hail the holy Lei Ann", then you too will be blocked, shunned, muted, and even bullied. She may give an you an ultimatum, demanding a public apology by a specific time and date, or she may find out where you work, call your job, and attempt to get you fired. Is this the type of mentally unstable person we want in office? It saddens me that it's come to this, because all she has actually accomplished is ensuring no outsider will ever have a chance at Mayor of Manteca for a long, long time. In the last 6 days since creating this blog, we have received over 1,500 views with an average read time of almost 6 minutes. We have received countless messages of people reaching out to us, thanking us for our work and what we are doing. We have received more subscriptions for instant notifications than we can keep up with. For that we are thankful, and we want to say; Manteca, we hear you, we are with you, and we will continue to set the record straight, for you. - With love, UPVM. |
