You can blame your handful of bogeyman leftists all you want, the fact remains that 77 million of your countrymen voted for this.
What bubble do you think I'm in? Really curious.

Last post by Sophie Scholl - Today at 01:08:50 AMFor what its worth, Tamas, I fully agree with you. Without modern camera phones and social media to share said video footage, the FBI/ICE/DHS would have had a monopoly on the "truth" and the legacy media would have just accepted their version and aired/published/reported on it. Probably word for word like they do with most police and government statements. Passive voice and all.

Last post by Jacob - Today at 01:04:32 AMNo I don't think anyone is claiming that. I think the claim is that even as we know, social media manipulation undermines the power of that knowledge.
It could be wrong though.

And another 85 million that did not vote and thus tacitly supported Trump or at the very least thought he was more acceptable than getting off the couch.

Last post by Tamas - Today at 12:19:15 AMThe two killings. Are you all claiming that we as the general public would have seen evidence of what has happened, without social media? (or the easy cross-connectivity technology provides, if you will, but that is not detachable from social media as it's the same phenomenon).

Last post by frunk - January 25, 2026, 11:53:24 PMA local example, when North Carolina had its ICE surge members of several local social media groups were reporting on and tracking ICE's activities. Shortly after this started they were flooded by new accounts shouting them down and attacking them for being un-American. Just about all of those groups either shut down, became private or declared that politics could no longer be discussed on them.

It's a bit rich to castigate other people for what you imagine they'd do one day, when your people is actually doing it right now.
