    It’s scary, because it also shows how much built-up resentment there is.

      This. If the people genuinely believed in the current system, there’s no way this shit would work.

        I also think there are bigger issues with the current system, but that’s an incredibly naive way of looking at it.

        Brainwashing is much easier than you think, and social media has made it so much easier to run such psyops campaigns. There will always be some issue you can get people riled up about.

        The west is just completely unprepared to deal with military-level budgets being used to push destabilization their societies though social media.
