The damage control is off the charts. The 'fake news' narrative was clearly dreamt up by a PR firm to divert the heat off of them. They actually think that by creating a bigger lie it will get them off the hook for all the other lies they've told. Fucking lugenpresse, what else do they know.
The Information Age is dead. We enter upon The Meme Age now.

Well that's going to be their problems and puts places like Holla Forums at an advantage for now. However it won't stop them from learning how to adapt memetic strategies to influence communities like this. They're going to have to reinvent themselves (and they will eventually) or risk losing it all. Wouldn't be surprised they're attempt to build their own private imageboard network to study such a new power structure.
Jaxson Miller
Except that's literally impossible. You can't create an A.I or commission a study to get a true gut laugh. They'll basically be as effective as Holla Forums since both of their memetic deficits is that they lack souls.
We we're the first group in human history to weaponize the human soul.

In trying to drum up viewer hours, to sway people from paying attention alternative sources, the media machines do seem to me to burning their own house of cards down. Maybe they can take the 'alt-media' with them, but maybe not. It's a high-risk move, as you say, but it might pay off. Personally, I don't think they have a choice. It's all or nothing for them at this point.

They're really reacting like an industry when a newcomer is about to shake their dominance. They circle their wagons, salt the land and poison the wells and hope the newcomer dies out while they survive on moldy weetabix. in commercial industries, people do this by offering goods, tech and services at often below cost price to use up old stock to starve out the new and coming competition by reminding their market who is better. It only works for material markets

Kek has spoken.

Unless the ultimate goal is synthesis. To put it another way, they have to become more like us.
Bentley Davis
If they become more like us then they'll eventually be absorbed into us while we most likely would lose little if any ground.
I'd be their death.
Brandon Kelly
You'd think that's what they'd do, but these places are literal echo chambers. Nobody who even hasn't memorized their entire narrative worldview is even allowed to make coffee.
