    The Trump win/Clinton loss plus the several (now-debunked) Russiagate scandals have been godsends for manufacturing the consent of Democrat-leaning Americans to embrace the censorship of “misinformation, malinformation, and disinformation”. My gen-x professional-managerial class peers are believers, despite my deprogramming efforts.

      yeah, stuff like Russiagate is basically taken as gospel by the libs even though it has been thoroughly debunked at this point. That was an absolutely brilliant piece of propaganda that convinced large swaths of US public that Russia is able to have significant influence on US domestic opinion.
