Well... thats kinda the point. Do you really believe that only "truth" is what ABC,NBC,CBS,FOX tell us and that if not being mention by them, must n ot be happening?
Putting aside conspiracy theories, do you seriously not believe that MSM is largely and wholly corporate controlled and VERY filtered and biased? Infowars.com may not have the best reputation, one of the largest benefits of 'social media' sites or aggregators like slashdot/reddit, etc... they can put focus on stories that are ignored or lost in the signal/noise ratio and might not have made prominence. If going to one of these sites now can put you in same category as a "miltia" or "homegrown terrorist" and establishes "probable cause".... that is scary. Sit back and passively take the news in from the tube, anything else and your 'dangerous'. Oh, and you probably even shouldn't criticize government policy out in public, you might be labeled a terrorist.
How can people even really joke or find this funny? Sure 4chan was mentioned, and they are oh so hilarious.
But anyplace where people are meeting for active discussion, dissent, countering MSM bias the government can now label "possible terrorist organization" and establish "probable cause"?
That is horrifying
