[/quote] Smith Mundt Act if not mistaken [/quote] The Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, which constrained the US gov from targeting the American public with the weaponized propaganda it uses on foreign populations, was [b]repealed[/b] in the 2013 NDAA. [/quote] The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, which was contained within the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (section 1078 (a)) amended the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987, allowing for materials produced by the State Department and the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) to be available within the United States. [/quote] Ah. Yes. The Broadcasting Board of Governors, aka the U.S. Agency for Global Media https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Agency_for_Global_Media The source of all propaganda evils. :wtfpoint: [/quote] In fact, it was probably the Broadcasting Board of Governors that issued this new weaponized radleft screeching point to the MSM at 4 am this morning. :lopanmad: [/quote] Weren't we hearing a similar talking point from the FBI about a week ago? The modern fascist deepstate comes with a ministry of propaganda. I bet they ache for a gulag. [/quote] :evil3: And it's in their sights now [/quote] Take a look at the current CEO of the BBG :damned::uhoh: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Agency_for_Global_Media#/media/File:John_lansing_ceo-sq.jpg "Current USAGM CEO John F. Lansing, who had been selected and approved in 2015 by the BBG Board holding a Democratic majority during the Obama administration, was not nominated by President Obama nor confirmed by the Republican-controlled U.S. Senate, as this was not required under previous legislation. In June 2018 President Trump announced his intention to nominate documentary film producer Michael Pack to head the agency. As of early December 2018 he has not been confirmed yet by the U.S. Senate." [/quote]
Original Message
Did I just see that?
An entire segment dedicated to how devastating conspiracy theories are... and how to handle family members who believe them...
Unbelievable.
They actually link the belief of conspiracy theories to a serious mental health diagnosis.
Wait... what??
This is absurd.
(watch the whole segment)
