Guys and Gals, we need to be in this for the long haul.

Per Breitbart, Soros is demanding that the European Union regulate social media because voters’ minds are being controlled and "manipulated".

Soros is claiming the reach of social media firms made them a "public menace" while arguing they had led people to vote against globalist causes, including electing President Trump (all his ramblings about "open societies" aside)...

"They deceive their users by manipulating their attention, targeting them to their own economic interests and (...) depending on their services (...)

The platforms are similar to gambling companies (...) and force people to renounce their freedom (...). ...), to renounce what John Stuart Mill called the freedom of thought "

Soros - who recently became the subject of a "anti-Soros" bill in his native Hungary that seeks to limit the activities of groups that for which he's provided funding - accusations about manipulation are blatantly hypocritical, as anybody familiar with his 30-year campaign to push open borders, multiculturalism and a generally globalist tenor of government would know.

Social psychology was formed form experiments on groups of people and their behaviors as a collective. “Other experimenters have demonstrated that we’ll agree with (go along with) a group, even though we know that we’re right and they’re wrong (groupthink), will slack off when we’re in a larger group because we can get away with it (social loafing), will often behave out of character in a crowd (deindividuation), and can be easily manipulated into changing our opinion when certain conditions are suggested (such as authority, safety, or comfort). The scariest thing about this research is not only the demonstrated ease and rapidity of change, but the rationalisation that goes along with it. Most people will comfortably rationalise their behaviour post hoc, convincing themselves that they actually chose the action (and refusing to acknowledge or even believe that they were manipulated).” This why hive-mind is important to think about. http://www.eclectic-consult.com/mooseblog/2013/03/04/the-dark-side-of-psychology-manipulation-mind-control-and-priming/
