of an issue whose scope seems too large for you to grasp (currently).
on a 'guns dont kill people...people kill people' level.
youre basically saying propaganda aint propaganda, money aint money, espionage aint espionage, voter suppression aint voter suppression, etc. because they dont have the same direct tangible effect of simply changing/hacking actual votes.
theres a reason we have laws prohibiting/limiting these things for elections. because theyre obviously relevant enough to work lol.
>It’s not because FB convinced them to vote this way.
people spend billions of dollars on campaign messaging and political advertising during election years. for the specific purpose of convincing people to vote this way. clearly they know something you dont lol.
a man drove almost 400 miles and risked imminent incarceration or death to shoot up a restaurant in dc because of facebook posts he saw from infowars, gatewaypundit, etc about a pedophile ring conspiracy theory based on a few sentences in a hacked email about pizza.
you dont think 'fb' could influence some votes?
