    When you see hundreds of thousands sharing Facebook and Twitter posts claiming Parkland students speaking about the shooting are paid actors, you know why America's so vulnerable to propaganda, and how social media enhances that vulnerability by facilitating dissemination.

        There is a whole sick crowd out there who say every shooting and terrorist attack are fake, crisis-actors, government planned, etc. The level of crazy is off the charts - and they are infecting others. Truly frightening.

        We are made much more vulnerable by the constant invocation of “fake news” as a pejorative to describe unfavorable media coverage, thereby diminishing the fourth estate who would normally function to fact check propaganda.

        This whole time period (from 2016-present), has just driven home to me, how truly stupid American people are. Most of us believe anything we are told, it's really sad.

        Purposeful deceit on a mass scale, & people aren't guarded enough. A certain portion of our society has been primed for such an effort. I like my reality real, please. No sugar, no cream. I'm tired of this😓

        Actually, we're so vulnerable to propaganda because we're conditioned by our own media and government to accept it and or reisgn ourseleves to putting up with it because "that's just tge way it is". #ManufacturingConsent

        And yet some will still say - probably as a deflection - that they don't believe that a "small group" with a "tiny budget" could have influenced the election because "Americans are hard to fool" 😛

        Is this what passes for American exceptionalism these days?
