About

Welcome to our new blog, demailwatch: our short-form word that describes our mission to keep track of and comment on Socialist Democrat Email Propaganda. By "Socialist Democrat" we mean the Democrat Party in the the United States of America. 

Evidenced-Based Analysis

We started tracking emails from a number of Democrat individuals and organizations (mostly the latter) roughly 13 years ago (our first tracked email was on 12-10-2010). From that date to the date of this post, we have received 15,638 emails — an average of roughly 4 per day from only about five or six subscriptions (sources). Undoubtedly there are more sources than the few to which we subscribed. Had we subscribed to more sources, we would assume an average of one additional email per day for each additional source. You can do the math; our point is not so much how many emails we received (though the number and constancy of messages is essential to effective propagandizing), but the nature of the emails.

What's in a Label?

The labeling system for this blog is equivalent to categorizing the various types of email propaganda messages; note that "propaganda" is not used as a label, as all of the messages are propaganda. Those category labels, in the beginning, will be: idpol (identity politics); crisis; guilt; celebrity; superiority; fear(mongering); and ego. Of course, most posts will have more than one label. Labels might come and go as we progress.

Our posts won't necessarily be in exact chronological order, but mostly will be listed from most recent to oldest.

"Republicans Aim to Decimate Abortion Access"

Like most of the fear-mongering emails that the Democrats send to their faithful, this is an "urgent" matter. Oh, really? How can something that is not true, and would represent no threat to anyone even if it were true, be "urgent?" Well, the simple answer to that question is that the Democrats always have to have a current (and usually totally false) crisis in order to raise funds—funds that will not be spent to fight an imaginary battle, but funds that will go straight to the bank accounts of both the Democrat hierarchy and the organization that sent the email, in this case the DSCC (Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee). To My Dear, Ignorant, Democrat Friends:  Allow me to explain why it is not true that "Republicans aim to decimate abortion access."  First and foremost, the Supreme Court did not ban abortion, it simply said that abortion is an issue that should be decided by the individual states, and that the federal government has no constitution...

"When I was a kid, I lost three fingers on my left hand while working in our family butcher shop" 2023-02-22

Here's a soppy, tear-jerker appeal designed to con you out of your hard-earned money, from a senate re-election candidate who says he pays $12 for what looks to us like a $5 haircut. (I've got him beat: I only pay $11 for a similarly bad haircut, but I do live in a red state, so you would expect to pay less.) This is a great example of a sob-story, identity-politics (let's keep sending him back to Washington because he and his family were too stupid to keep him from cutting off three fingers) appeal for your money.  This is Jon Tester. "…who lost three fingers on (his) left hand while working in our family butcher shop." Despite (or because of) his family's obvious ignorance of  child labor laws, he wants to be a U. S. Senator.  Jon also touts his "collection of dirt-stained T-shirts"  Three missing fingers and dirty shirts are the only  qualifications he puts forth, and that's after already serving in the Senate for sixteen years.  If you send M...
