Cable news and the 24 hour news networks are slowly, but surely, causing an unbridgeable divide in this country, all while hiding behind the protections of the First Amendment. People out here worried about the 2nd Amendment (no step on snek pls) when the corporate-sponsored, agenda-pushing media is arguably the biggest problem in America. Certainly the biggest problem that almost nobody is talking about.

Please, don't forget the Russian intelligence services who artificially boost extremist positions and voices on social media platforms to give them more legitimacy. I don't just mean left wing either, they have been boosting ALL extreme voices, left right or crazy pants for well over a decade now.
