They financed right wing think tanks to subvert the population

These are very dangerous times when people cannot distinguish between fact and fiction or trust what they see and hear, especially from their own governments. It’s a time when Independent investigate journalism is more important than ever, and is why Putin has closed down any and all news outlets except his own Russian trusted state mouthpieces. Trump, during his term in office, did a good job of rubbishing journalists who questioned the Trump/Fox version of events, silencing their voices at press briefings by branding them liars and peddlers of false news. All of his supporters, which was almost half of the US population believed the Trump/Fox line and still do. There are people here on this site who are Trump supporters, and who still parrot the Trump line which is remarkably similar to the Putin line. Then there are the ones who call themselves libertarians who hate any sort of government control or laws of any kind which impinge on their personal liberty. They disbelieve everything official and prefer alternative facts because it suits their narrative of belief that the state is out to get them. These times we live in when deliberate misinformation is used as a weapon are extremely dangerous, and when proliferation of false information via Social media can become so pernicious that it ultimately leaves people unable to distinguish reality from propaganda.
