The largest skew of our information within the US is state narrated pro-state skew - not 'left-wing' or 'right-wing' news.
And honestly it's sickening to see such an increase in what's truly rotting our democracy: people stating, in an uncontroversial tone, how we need to shut down free speech for the security of our country.
This tacit allowance on the affront to free speech was and is seen in the rise of authoritarian states around the world.
It's scary to hear such views even on Hacker News.
