Cyanide and Happiness

Here's more, the evidence is massive and every major institution is reporting on it, but people like you are tuning out and not caring because it just seems like more "gender war nonsense" or "internet arguing" which is exactly the point of what they've been doing for decades, making it so people get mad at anyone who raises awareness of outside influence in our social discourse because you're all tired of caring. I get it. You are not "talking reason to a conspiracist" here, you're a victim of warfare.

Your personal feelings are irrelevant, this is a huge issue that you can google and get avalanches of reports, stories, data, evidence and facts. But for some reason people aren't caring as much about facts anymore... hmnnn, interesting.

And I'm saying that bad actors from a variety of opposing sources have been exploiting our existing social vulnerabilities. Don't be obtuse, you either know exactly what I'm referencing and it's making you mad, or you're dense and ill-informed.

Yes it's always been a "thing" but over the last couple decades there have been organized efforts to boost and amplify every small social contention, which is why you have the rise of the "men's movement" and all the stupid nonsense that came with like redpill BS and incel talking points getting amplified across the world. It's not conspiracy, it's been documented and we ~~have~~ had a whole operation in our national security agencies to monitor and track down these subversive efforts.

Here, while I'm "taking breath" maybe you can get yourself up to speed:

"Russia is waging an information warfare campaign against the U.S. that didn’t start and didn’t end with the 2016 election. Their goal is broader: to sow societal discord and erode public confidence in the machinery of government. By flooding social media with false reports, conspiracy theories, and trolls, and by exploiting existing divisions, Russia is trying to breed distrust of our democratic institutions and our fellow Americans. While Russia may have been the first to hone the modern disinformation tactics outlined in this report, other adversaries, including China, North Korea, and Iran, are following suit." - https://www.intelligence.senate.gov/press/senate-intel-committee-releases-bipartisan-report-russia%E2%80%99s-use-social-media

Don't be ignorant how vulnerable you are to outside influence. They DEPEND on people like you to keep making people shrug and not pay attention as they use our emotions and social issues as weapons to destabilize democracy. What, are you worried you have to DO something about it? Don't worry, you can keep zoning out and staring at your social media and dumb youtubers being paid by foreign nations to scream about things nobody actually cares about in an effort to make people enraged. You don't need to feel any feelings of guilt or responsibility here, just don't keep working for them for free.
