Absolutely, US money and billionaires are a HUGE part of it. If anyone is curious about the rabbit hole I went down, it led to Automattic Inc. They funded the majority of big-tech companies in the past and present (at the time).

I'm sure thing have gotten worse and more "diversified" since then, I just haven't had to the time or energy lately to sink into going down the rabbit hole again.

Follow that money trail u/lovelyspearmint. It's there. As to why Silicon Valley? It's the start-up capital of the tech world, and all the major players have base offices here. This area is a beacon for mass-distribution to the people and internet, which means the world can hear even the tiniest message. If all the investors say "make sure this message is/isn't part of your repertoire", companies will in order to survive, and then eventually the people running it will start believing it themselves since everyone around them is spouting the same. That's the nature of propaganda.

To u/reluctant_commenter's second point, the medical pipeline of ANYTHING in the USA ... it's disgusting. Medical and insurance industries in this country are for-profit, not for-citizens, and cancel culture is causing corruption among even those who swore to be ethical. It all just keeps feeding itself, and TG is the latest nutritional source.

Please do share some links! Newer people need to know, and those of us who already know, we need to not forget.
