It's amazing how infrequently they use their miraculous powers. If they can shape public opinion so effectively then how is it they've used that power on things like this but not on sanctions or border disputes?
- DoItToMe81 4y agoIf the country that can barely run its own army or collect taxes somehow can mastermind every trolling and propaganda campaign on Earth, I have to wonder how much more the US logically must do. Maybe this article was written by Washington trolls and bots?
- BMc2020 4y agoIt makes the days of planting favorable newspaper articles seem quaint. However, the Russians have been fomenting revolution almost 100 years now, they are very good at it. But this article is from the NYT so it won't be by trolls and bots. NYT is way up in the political influence sphere. The Sulzbergers were thoroughly compromised long before the internet came along. They get to keep their power and influence as long as they color inside the lines, and also they enjoy the not insignificant protection of the US Government. TL:DR; A Game of Thrones was a documentary.
