Putin has the ESP
No, it isn't Vlad Putin, it is Vlad Surkov. Surkov understands that people on social media who react-comment with Twitter-Length Tweet-thinking of 4 words are easily controllable with media systems. Vlad Surkov openly explains this, but the people on social machines who have brain-damage from their machine lust can't seem to put two and two together and get anything near 4 or higher. Reacting only to clickbait and headlines, giving up their free thinking skills to meme-patterns.
Vlad Surkov: "The illusion of choice is the most important illusion, the main trick of Western democracy especially…. The rejection of this illusion in favor of the reality that everything is predestined will allow society to reflect first on our vision of democratic development," Surkov wrote. "Foreign politicians talk about Russia's interference in elections and referendums around the world. In fact, the matter is even more serious: Russia interferes in your brains, we change your conscience, and there is nothing you can do about it."
