Elliott Gabriel — Facebook Partners With Hawkish Atlantic Council, a NATO Lobby Group, to “Protect Democracy”

Summary:
The partnership between Facebook and the Atlantic Council is an attempt to ensure the grip of dominant imperialist powers – militaries, multinationals, banks, and philanthropists – who feel threatened by the unrestricted flow of information and anti-systemic narratives on social media. It's all about who controls the narrative. The Internet and social media are threatening elite control and they are now attempting to re-consolidate control. If you don't know know who the mark is, you are the mark. Also when media is "free," you are the product by being enticed to give up your data for free.
