and you are mistakes if you do not understand the role of the media in totalitarian states. We crossed that threshold oh truly in 2000, but I would say started in the 1990s. We will rue the day, or should be already, that the telecommunications act of 1996 was passed and signed. (See the rise of Trump. He farts, BREAKING NEWS)

And no, it is not a conspiracy. I will grant you that. It is editorial choice. And this is the kind of editorial choices that lead to propaganda and the manufacturing of consent. As I said, I vote to remain in practice, It really, really does not count.
