True..

We're trapped in a feedback loop where capital formation = more consolidation, which = more political power, which = more capital formation... Which leads to even more consolidation.. and more power.. Etc.

It's now to the point where they can create news on the fly.. Regardless of anything.

Foreigners must be very confused by this.. and think we take this seriously. Because, OMG! NEWS!

In reality it's just cheap kabuki... but it has a veneer of legitimacy, especially to those who are unfamiliar with the issues..

I agree. And it's those ignorant masses that serve as these bastards' target audience. With no ability or background information to compare against, they're unwitting victims.

No, I stand by my statement. They need to be brought to heel. They're the very embodiment of those forces that seek to undermine a citizenry's rights. And they do so with soft power, so it's insidious. The average guy doesn't stand a chance. Between a hostile government and a media construct determined to subvert him, he'll fall. They appeal to our finer instincts, whilst using them against us.
