FCC didn't plant it, didn't pay for it, didn't orchestrate it, so not really complicit. The worst you can say is they didn't do enough to stop it because it was supporting what they wanted. Guilty of confirmation bias, certainly. Psyops? no.
- calibas 7y ago"it was supporting what they wanted" Yeah, because the FCC and "Broadband for America" are only separate in theory. When you have the industry controlling the FCC to this point, the only difference between psyops and marketing is who's footing the bill. You're technically right base upon a very literal definition of psyops, but missing the whole point.
- calibas 7y agoIf you look the other way while someone commits a crime, especially when you're a regulatory agency, that makes you a criminal. That makes you complicit, you're helping the criminals get away with it. To me, you're acting like a jaw-dropping level of corruption is somehow excusable, perhaps because it's "normal"?
