yall made fun of 40 year olds falling for fake news on facebook but the second it was revealed that yall could have fallen for it here its a conspiracy
except we have zero proof besides a claim from tumblr while fake news on facebook can be debunked by a google search. i’m not sure how you can look at the trend of blogs being deleted and not think something is fishy.
american media censoring stuff is like, not a new thing at all.
what is the propaganda behind pointing out police brutality and criticizing political candidates ? how is it “fake news” ? the arguments are generally “oh it’s dividing america and helped trump win” which is wrong, america was never united and hillary won the popular vote anyway. if trump did divide america worse, what does that say about america ?
it’s frustrating to see people trust these conclusions while beforehand saying staff aren’t trustworthy and are always doing bad shit.
And there IS proof that the US has run a lot o social media accounts and even a whole frikking social media platform to effect politics in other countries:

It’s possible that there are 80 minor blogs run by Russian government agents. So what? How is that worthy of sure a collective panic? How many blogs do you think the US is running?
