Good panel discussion. Need more for the vulnerable voters still uninformed and misinformed

[@NikosZaidGomez]

And we need to get out there, pound the pavement and talk to these people.
We can get lost, like the talking heads on TV, in thinking these are wholly new times. But people are still people, the world is still a real thing, and we can still talk face to face, and it works.

[@user-wz6oq9ox1p]

Exactly...firehose of falsehoods!!!!

[@nonuser1532]

Like what the mainstream media spews every day?

[@campion77]

Ms. DiRetsa nailed it.

[@jluther1755]

Sounds like other countries are now able to enact a Version of the United States playbook from the last 7 decades. Looks like the technology has Leveled the playing field somewhat

[@NikosZaidGomez]

If you hate America, just say so.

Thank you intelligence community !

Steve Bannon: "Flood the zone with s***".

[@JohnAranita]

I don't want to spread misinformation.

[@brianboneslee]

If you have a brain coupled with independent thought most people will be fine.

[@nonuser1532]

So, half the world is doomed.

Pot, meet Kettle

[@NikosZaidGomez]

I think this was quite a scary segment, so I want to say, to all the commenters, that we will defeat this.
Our adversaries will lose, because they have no pursuit other than power, which makes their movement weak and fragile.
We have our American ideals, freedom, equality, improvement, justice, happiness, etc, and that makes us resilient.
We'll get through this, defeat it, and come up with new solutions to do so. So keep the faith, we will destroy those who want to harm us, even when they recruit the gullible and malicious amongst us.

[@nonuser1532]

So, their fearmongering propaganda works on you?

[@Shining237]

Fear-Based Propaganda
