US Midterms & Fear Mongering

Coincidence? I think not. If I was a company planning regulatory capture, or even just wanting to impart my will & desire, I would 100% ramp up all (marketing) efforts just before an election. Why is it so hard for people to see this? We all know bots run rampant across the internet. Every large company has a multitude of people and personalities, each with their own visions of the future (some good, some bad). How difficult is it to amplify the (inner) people that express fear when you want to? Encourge the scared people to speak up and then put their posts on blast to create groupthink. Propoganda 101. All platforms operate on an algorithm of engagement, which can easily be manipulated... and if you're in this thread you already knew that.
