Imagine a fictive society in which corporations and special interest groups have so much money to burn, that they can afford an army of trolls that constantly monitor wikipedia, create organizations which conduct fake studies, and found whole grassroots movements that have no other purpose than to misinform the masses after gaining their trust by posing as the good guys, but secretly pushing some corporate agenda...

Oh wait, you don't have to imagine anything, because there's a whole industry out there already making a killing from doing exactly that.

Folks, this has nothing to do anymore with making a few bucks here on Steem, but I'm asking you to share the crap out of this video and expose these frauds to as many people as possible. Enough is enough. Tomorrow they will air the Grammy awards and we just learned that those are most likely rigged as well. Actually no big surprise there.

I really would like to hear your opinions about all the fakeness we have to deal with everyday. Nothing is sacred anymore and con-artistry is reaching whole new levels by being a mainstream source of income. How do you protect yourself and your family from this constant assault with manipulative bogus info? We all rely on information in order to make intelligent decisions. What are the sources for truth nowadays and if there are any left, how long until they will be corrupted?
