Today that is easy to for you or me to say.
But not all that long ago there were many people who considered that type of talk as a mere conspiracy and it was something you should not worry about.....and anyone who brought up or endorsed the concern was CrAzY.
I know Alex Jones has been going on about this stuff since way before 1999 (Police State 1) because there was this guy at work that listened to this loon named Alex Jones during break and went on rants during lunch as to where things were headed. It was all stuff that you never heard about on ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and the new kid on the block Fox News.
Everyone laughed and would tell him he was nuts
Who provides more credible news Infowars, Breitbart, Zerohedge, MSNBC, CNN or Fox News?
Who is telling the truth Alex Jones, Glenn Beck, Chris Matthews or Sean Hannity?

They say that Putin jails journalists he can't intimidate, and kills journalists he can't jail. They say he dominates all mass communications media, particularly television, which is wholly owned and operated by the Kremlin and serves as the dominant source of news for most Russians. And they say Putin's attacks are not limited to traditional media, but rather increasingly target the Internet, choking it off as a source of criticism before even half of the population has been able to access it.
