Apparently the "propaganda machine" and its targets have been misidentified....In fact, we have had it all BACKWARDS!
It is a jaw-dropping revelation, as alarming and earthshaking as the threads a week ago that revealed that impoverished Americans' rage at looters and profiteers is wholly justified, but that we have had the wrong target in our sights! We have tragically misidentified the REAL threat to us.....a cunning Goldstein by the name of....wait for it....
Glenn Greenwald. 
Yes, Greenwald is the REAL looter and profiteer that Americans need to fear. Not the tentacled NSA, not the rapacious One Percent, and certainly not the corrupt, purchased politicians who have been driving millions into poverty through predatory corporate policy. No, it is Greenwald. He has power!
Glenn Greenwald is impoverishing me!

And now thank god we have you and your compatriots to identify the REAL propaganda machine, too.
Thank goodness you are here to defend the beleaguered NSA, the struggling global banks and corporations, the quivering and impoverished government of the United States, and the bedraggled One Percent against the Massive, Orchestrated Juggernaut of Propaganda being wielded against them by....poor Americans and Julian Assange... (cough).
The cadre of pro-corporate, pro-police state, pro-Third Way, pro-everything One Percent brigade at discussion sites across the internet has NOTHING to do with propaganda. It is merely a fluke of nature that they have swarmed into sites across the internet and shifted the political balance of DU and other discussion forums in just a few short months or years. It is merely an accident that they predictably and reliably swarm *every single discussion* that implicates this administration in the persecution of whistleblowers and journalists and assaults on the Constitution for the benefit of the One Percent. It is merely a bizarre accident that they evidence an influx and constant growth in their numbers that is unnatural to the point of being ridiculous**. And it is wholly a coincidence that they share a consistent set of rules and tactics for smearing liberals, disrupting liberal discussion, and fervently defending, minimizing, or denying *every single aspect* of the growing corporate authoritarian state.
How in the world will the voiceless US government, the helpless surveillance and corporate media machine, and the defenseless banks and corporations of the One Percent *ever* hope to overcome the dread power of the vast propaganda machine wielded by the people against them?!
