It's obvious to anyone who's eyes are open. When Operation Mockingbird infiltrated the media 60+ years ago, it was easy for them. There were only a handful of news sources, and people believed them. There was no way for "conspiracy theorists" to get information to the people on a large scale. The invention of the free internet was major setback to the powers that be... one they are desperately trying to fix by censorship. Your average normie is too entertained by the "bread and circuses" to dig deeper. If free speech disappears from the internet, they won't even notice.
