You are. It's not a theory, conspiracy or otherwise. It's not a political argument. It's the reality. There's a war going on - an informational war. The one side is the governments, the deep state (of any nation), the "elites", the press, the academia, the entertainment complex, the "opinion makers", the "fact checkers", all that crowd. On the other side, there are people who want to take informed decisions by themselves, based on their own values, desired and goals. They former do not want to allow the latter to do that. For their own good, of course, because they consider themselves smarter, more educated, more moral, more progressive, more... everything good, so it's only natural that they would take the decision making power from the rubes. This is what you are witnessing. It's for your own good. If you disagree, well, welcome to the other side.
