    Social media is exactly that, social. The cuck and everyone else had/has access to social media and main stream news.

    And not surprising as a liberal you blame social media and technology instead of the people who use it. Always trying to shift blame to someone or something else, it's what you all do. So natural for liberals it's like breathing. Truth is, always looking for someone to blame when liberals should be looking for a mirror.

    Did you miss the part where a foreign player had massive troll farms which then lead to the right wing picking up on the same tactic which pushed thousands upon thosuands of disengenous memes that tried to push narratives such as BLM being systemicslly violent? Liberal leaning groups didn't play tic for tac here. It's obvious on social media. Go to your Facebook news feed and it's mostly disnengous far right skewed bullshit.

    Blame both the social media algorithms and infrastructure that allowed this and naive individuals such as yourself.

    We can blame both. Do you happen to know who this guy that was interviewed is? His words are pretty ****ing important when it comes to Facebook and Zuckerberg. He knows what he is talking about. I suggest thou sincerely listen to him instead of assuming you know everything in regards to this issue.

    i've said this hundreds of times now, don't like him at any level but like the havoc he's causing. also i believe in democracy and he won fair and square despite any reports to the contrary. real people voted under the current electoral system and he won the most electoral votes. blaming the system or the russians is fine but it's the real people who voted and as i mentioned in another thread social media platforms and being stupid isn't illegal. perhaps it's karma for those social media whores and slaves. not to toot my own horn but i've never owned any type of social media account because i saw the privacy issues a mile away and i'm not an idiot.

    Oh man. You must be some successful individual who possess a high level skill. No social media accounts. Good for you.

    Also, Putin's troll farming disproportionately affects the elderly who have seen a surge of social media membership in the past half decade because hey, it's a pretty pragmatic way to keep in touch with distant relatives. Too bad they didn't have the years of experience in distinguishing between click bait memes and actual news.

    Coincidentally the elderly are our most active voting demographic.

    Sugary foods are evil making people fat, not the fat asses appetites fault. Cancer is not smokers fault, it's the tobacco companies fault. Drug addicts, not their fault. Divorced, cheaters, not their fault, it's facebook and tinder fault, election not the voters who voted fault, it's the media, fbi, comey, russian trolls, etc... No personal responsibility exists in liberal world. they have to and need to create a government to care of it's the helpless citizens.

    Having said that, I'm not as cruel as you might think. I'm against corruption at all levels and the wars against the uninformed and poor and we should fix those issues. But not at the cost of personal responsibility or in such a way that it's replaced with excuses or a government program. otherwise we'd have a Dept. of Forgiveness fixing everyones self inflicted problems. Now that I think about it, you liberal would love another Dept.

    Old people are stupid, old people use facebook, old people vote, but at the end of the day they are not responsible for their personally casted vote. That's what you're going with?

    You are confusing a normative ought statement with me just telling you what happened.

    You are telling me that the opposition to Trump was incrediblely stupid to lose to an idiot like Trump. But I'm telling you that is nothing but a feedback loop from hell.

    Trump apologists fall into the same feedback loop from hell:

    Trump is competent and smart because he won an election.

    He won because stupid people voted for him.

    Trump is competent and smart because he won an election.

    He won because stupid people voted for him.

    Trump apologist, liberal bullies, etc..., not any different to me so I can agree with this. But you don't see them as the same which is hilarious. More in common they you are willing to admit while yelling at the top of the their lungs how they are different and good guys. completely tolerant with those that agree with them but not those who don't because it's facism or some crazy ass bullshit LOL!!! Fight facism with facism!

    You are just spewing drivel with platitidues. You probably are the type that subscribe to youtube channels that try to find every nook and cranny of the world wide web to find anecodotes that confirm your preconcvied bias to push a narrative of whatever the **** you are b****ing about it into systemic issue. You are part of that brainwashed social media circle jerk that thinks that every modern Collete campus has been experiencing riots on a weekly basis.

    did you not read, i don't have and have never had any social media account so it's impossible to be brainwashed. now you on the other hand probably do use social media so perhaps you're the brainwashed without evening knowing it. note, deny that you are brainwashed is exactly what they would brainwash you to say.

    Do you subscribe to any politically changed youruve channels? Do you source information from non-subscription based click bait news sites?

    nope, i've got my cf.net account and that's about it outside of email and banking/commercial/billing online accounts that you have to have nowadays. i do have a google account because of my phone but i don't use. obviously you're not aware but i work in IT field for almost 20 years and many many years ago got my CISSP and a few other security certifications. i've had the knowledge to protect myself before even the first dotcom boom and the subsequent social media boom that followed. but more than anything, i've used common sense.
