The propaganda is falling on us like a hurricane right now. (USA). Should we discuss that here? Should such discussion be forbidden? (leminal.space)

Reddit's /all is about 70% US politics right now. Much of it feels like astroturfing. I've been able to read around it until now, but the saturation is too much and it feels too fake.

So is politics and news subs here... Just same clowns running the same op.

Blocking their shot allowed the natural discussion to resurface.

Fake news just blasting that shot into every social media. Any proepr discussion = ban hammer
