The concept of mis-information started as a way to confuse the enemy in a war with the purpose of hindering their decision making ability IMO. The tactic of course has been developed and refined over the decades, and combined with some research it's evident it has reached a feverous pitch in the United States.
The root of the issue points to manipulation as a source of chaos which is aligned to the Heligian dilect to then provide a solution. The problem is when you have people who are free thinkers that analyse issues and question the politically correct proved answers you have resistance.

That's the world we live in today, the power elite controlling the financial system and the resistance of sovereign individuals who know better than to take their B.S. in the MSM folks. Are you taking the RED Pill, or the Blue Pill?
