Furthering one's political education is always worth making a thread for, right?

Here's some interesting stuff I've found lately on the US 'Deep State,' the (theorised?) loose network of cooperation between the military-industrial complex, oil companies, Wall Street and intelligence agencies that relies on parliamentary politics for money and legitimacy.

Anatomy of the Deep State (just what it says on the tin, doesn't put all that much emphasis on party lines)

Situational Assessment 2017: Trump Edition (a predictive look at the US culture war as reflected in and influenced by politics; Uses extended metaphor, has elements of 'buy my book' at the end)

Donald J. Trump and the Deep State (a two-part, quite specific look at individual characters and groups in the global deep state and their connection to Trump and other parts of the US system, relies on a whole lot of citations which I didn't check)

Anything you guys want to recommend to the ol' reading list (or any criticisms of these suggestions so far)?

Will you accept videos? I am having a hard time trusting the old media lately since Wall Street's story about PewDiePie broke last week and other things as well. Plus, I am not paying monthly fees to get biased coverage of something.

The Media Failed in its Coverage of the PewDiePie Controversy (Liz Finnegan goes into depth about the old media and how they just post articles without providing the entire information at hand)

I'd recommend you guys watch MSM Tried To Destroy PewDiePie and OMG It Just Backfired! So ridiculous... and PewDiePie: The Death of Comedy and Journalistic Integrity.

Gender-swap experiment shows Hillary even less likable as a man
An experiment designed to reveal gender bias by reenacting the presidential debates with the candidates’ genders reversed found that Hillary Clinton would have been even less likeable as a man.
The two NYU professors who designed the experiment were "unsettled" to discover that audience members actually found Trump's style more endearing when it came from a woman.
One female audience member even remarked that she found the male version of Clinton "very punchable" because he smiled so much.

On a cheeky humor note...

If it's not low-calorie rehab monster, you're wrong, and I've got a list of political reasons to justify that claim. #1, everything else is communist. Coffee is concentrated communism. #2, shut up. #3, also shut up. You get the idea.

You just have to be careful about it. Sumatran? Communist. Columbian? Communist. Guatemalan? Communist. French roast? You can capitalize it, but natural state is communist. Americana is a commie trick, it's not real American coffee and therefore it's communist. Etc.

Really you have to go to Starbuck's to get coffee, because they exploit the poor overseas, which capitalizes just about any blend.
