Well, it sounds like your blaming the dems when in fact its the uber wealthy that make up the deep state who profits off of wars and a divided and struggling populace. The uber wealthy happen to fall on both sides of the political spectrum, Robert Mercer, Koch brothers, Shelden Adelson, Rupert Murdoch... none of which likely complained when we went to war with Iraq and Afghanistan under a republican president.
The EXACT same can be said for democrats and their wealthy elite.
The point is that we are getting manipulated by both sides, but if you can't see how FOX news plays in to your fears just as much as MSNBC plays in the liberal fears... then I don't know what to tell you.
The deep state only cares about profits and empires, they don't care about the false dichotomy of liberals vs democrats. They use wedge issues to control us.

Lets take the russian bot example. So we are to believe that a few people making bots that are pushing a pro russian narrative on Facebook and twitter has the ability to steal an election, but these platforms being ran by democrat or left wing supporters that routinely censor right wing and constantly push pro democrat messages is of no consequence?
It boggles the mind.

All I'm reading is some kind of paranoid justification for putting a morally corrupt idiot in the most powerful position in the world. Dont you people understand if we impeace this piece of # and get him out of office we would still have a conservative republican I.E. Pence. And maybe we would not have to put will all this childish behavior.

Oh look, right on cue.
Remember, the left was so appalled by a group paid for by trump using facebook data.
Well it turns out, an Obama campaign manager admits that Facebook was in the tank for them, and allowed them to use this data themselves.
A former Obama campaign official is claiming that Facebook knowingly allowed them to mine massive amounts of Facebook data — more than they would’ve allowed someone else to do — because they were supportive of the campaign.
In a Sunday tweet thread, Carol Davidson, former director of integration and media analytics for Obama for America, said the 2012 campaign led Facebook to “suck out the whole social graph” and target potential voters. They would then use that data to do things like append their email lists.
ijr.com...
But never mind that Facebook is ran by dmeocrat supporters and is helping them mine info on voters, thats no big deal. Now a different company trying to use a small portion of the info that Facebook has access to to help republicans, that is a HUGE DEAL!!!
The hypocrisy is astounding.

So if this is all the leftist democrats, why is the investigation being led by the quite-far-right UK conservative government?

a reply to: Grambler>>>>>> What I hope people realize is that they're going after social media because the deep state hates that people have a free and unfettered access to soap box discussions and the exchange of news and opinions that run counter to what they want us to hear. Screw the MSM and the official narrative, people have to have the ability to hear what others have to say and the right to be heard. Yes, some of whats said is fake news and unfounded opinion, maybe a little is even trolling. But so is what the MSM and Deep State push on us. So social media ended up being a threat to them and now they want to pretend that it has to be taken down and rebranded in a more positive way. They'll silence us and that will be that.

But but what about all those AM station talk shows? Those radio stations reach far more people that Twitter, Facebook, PBS, NBC, ABC, CBS, nearly every trade magazine and publication, and just about every single major newspaper outlet.
I think it's so unfair that right wing talk shows have such an advantage. And don't even get me started on GAB or T_D reddit.

Are you implying that right-wing people think for themselves whereas left-wingers let their masters do the thinking for them?

Because the establishment on the right and left is on the same side.
They want total censorship of any viewpoints or methods that dont favor them.
Why havent the conservatoves enforced brexit in the UK? Cause they are globalist estbalishment people, like their buddy hillary.
