The deep state isn't some conspiracy theory.What if the deep state doesn't exist? Like what if the us gov is just really incompetent?
I mean, what will you guys look for on social media for hours a day?
What will be the purpose of your lives?
I mean...gosh...OH wait, there is no deep state beyond "keep focused on red vs blue so I can kill and rob you."
All state is the deep state, and every government is the enemy of the common man's interests.
Saying it doesn't exist would be like saying the stock market isn't run by profit driven capitalists.
It's like saying acedemia isn't awash in left wing propaganda.
The deep state requires no central control mechanism, no secret agreements nothing like that.
It merely requires the institutions to be populated by self interested bureaucrats and far left ideologues.
Think of the beltway as a giant version of hollywood or a college campus. It's got administrators who just want to grow their department, regardless of whether that's the right thing to do, and It's got left wing fanatics who drive out anyone who offers an opposing viewpoint.
No conspiracy theory required. Just the emergent peoperty of a critical mass of left wingers in one place.
Denying that exists in the face of such overwhelming evidence seems to be the tin foil hat approach to me.
The mass of left wing thought also explains the incompetence.
