Time to put away the pitchforks. It's not what the title and description might suggest. This is just an exposé by Johnny Harris on the history and overreaches of the intelligence apparatus here in the US .

Aside from the one line of text in the description, at no point does the video attempt to repudiate the great orange troll.

Guy uses clickbait title to flame outrage, gets outrage.

The title and description were taken direction from the YT video by OP. I suspect that they were intended to lure those on YT who might be more sympathetic to the idea of a "Deep State" as expounded upon by those on the far right in hopes to enlighten some about what the real deep state looks like. It's fair to say that Lemmy, at least this instance, tends to lean the other way, so perhaps a different title would have been more appropriate here.
