Democracy comes at a cost, and this is exactly the cost one has to pay for. I am not surprised by the attempts of Russia, because I am sure that they are involved at many level besides social media. I know the case of Former KGB Agent Yuri Bezmenov, who went on the mission to take control of the government of India. At that time their was no internet or even television set at every home, Indians depended on Newspaper or Radio to get the latest news. KGB had implanted more than thousand news during 1970s. link Yuri Bezmenov, who later become a mole, talks about his mission and how he brainwashes the whole nation by controlling the academia and media. link ▶ this video CIA has also been equally involved in manipulating the stories to get the desired result. link link link link link ---- At this stage, I have learned that no one is your friend or your enemy. It is all business to get ahead in the competitive world. CIA is no saint, author sounds concerned because he thinks he is on losing side. But anyway, this is a battle of newer generation which can be slow but is equally damaging like a direct war.
Absolutely, the reason I wrote left is that for the past decade it's the left I'm afraid of. Of course, the right can use them for evil too. But seeing how American media behaves, scandals around people who don't agree with the left narrative, is very much frightening and reminds me the Soviet past. When I call it out, people say something along the lines "freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences", after social and regular media (that is left, let's face it) doxx and destroy a person. I know plenty of people who are afraid to speak out. Even having a little bit different opinion can destroy your career. But you have family and kids. What is more important? The Google Memo guy is a brilliant example. It doesn't matter what he wrote, people wanted to destroy him and they did. No freedom from consequences... We had a similar saying over here too. It meant a crime against the state/society. That is a reason my grandmother was not able to go to the university. Her father used to own a small two-man brick factory and by being a capitalist he committed a crime. Your universities are filled with ignorant, blinded radical people, who don't teach thinking but dogmas. Looks like the KGB work started to take effect a little too late.[0] People reading it I'm a republican nutjob, but believe me, having once lived in that kind of society they are pretty close to the truth on that. Wrong on many other things. [0]: ▶ this video

One idea/theory/conspiracy that I have is explained in this Yuri Bezmenov "Brainwashing a nation" ▶ this video . It says that you fund counter-culture movements as much as possible for them to go completely full-scale. Examples: Black lives matter (which was a honest one at first) then went full kamikaze. Let's bring 1M+ syrians, what could go wrong (when Albania was in ~civil-unrest in 1997 all borders closed). Multiculturalism is ok friend. All cultures are equal (they're not, many suck, like roma example that I gave in another comment).
