The phenomenon of social media manipulation is 100% real. The reduction of all racism and injustice in the US to social media manipulation, and the farther reduction of that manipulation to Russia is where liberals really jumped the shark. This is the kind of shit the US has probably been doing for decades, but all of a sudden when it was used domestically everyone lost their minds.
As we witnessed on this very site, it only takes a single person, or a handful of people to register hundreds of accounts and automate them to amplify bullshit. Social media influence campaigns are trivial. Post your shit, sockpuppet some flimsy strawman opposition, own them, then bot likes and upvotes. Anyone with the resources of a modest political campaign can do this shit, and the Republicans don't need the fucking Spetsnaz to drown social networks like Facebook, Twitter and Reddit in reactionary garbage.
If the libs stopped at "Damn, perceptions on social media are extremely easy to manipulate," this meltdown would have been a lot more productive, but instead they embarked on one of the most absurd witch hunts of a generation.
It's because Americans need media literacy but that would run counter to the needs of neoliberalism.
