Don't forget conjuring up an external enemy to distract the public and get the population riled up.
5. Russia and Hackers and Collusion Oh My!
> Not the fault of the media who would never shut up about Trump.
But look at the ratings and the ad money they are getting? It's the same thing with school shootings. Massive 24/7 coverage turning the shooter into a celebrity. Then they wonder why shootings happen. Oh it couldn't be the media. They can't blame themselves. It must be guns. Another gem is "why is society so divided"? Could it be the media playing population/groups off each other to create drama and make more money? Of course not. They can't blame themselves. So it must be social media and the internet.
- DerfNet 9y agoUh oh, you suggested "Russian collusion" might be a load of crap. Good thing people are here to "downvote" and silence you. We're literally in the middle of yet another Red Scare. You can speak out against such nonsense without being a Trump supporter.
- tim333 9y agoYou can also note that "the heads of the top six American intelligence agencies unanimously reaffirmed Russian interference" without being a conspiracy nut.
