(51,129 posts)Bullshit fake news was more easily dismissible when it came from the lips of obvious liars. I'm not saying Trump's lies are not obvious, just that an authority figure legitimates the lying for many deplorable intellects.

(53,072 posts)The insane progressives and JPRs of the world push and still continue to push that Seth Rich story.
People are all too willing to accept and disseminate stories that promote their particular faction, with no regard to evidence. The enemy of my enemy . . . only the enemy of your enemy is Putin and the white nationalists. They are also your enemies, our enemies. I see it on all sides, including among those anxious to run with anything critical of Bernie.
And we still see otherwise good Democrats eager to sign on to Russian propaganda because they see is supporting they narrow factional interests.
I see all this and I am left with no hope for democracy in this country.

Never forget, over half the protestors in Chicago '68 were taking orders from the Republicans. Things are not what they seem, and agit-prop is everywhere there is progressive activism.
