You'll note that we put "actually kind of awesome" in quotation marks, while the New York Times put "deep state" in quotation marks. So it's not a conservative conspiracy theory? No, it actually exists and is awesome.

From the New York Times. Calling this Soviet would be too charitable. Closer to North Korean. How bizarre pic.twitter.com/DFshuy24JS

The excerpt reads:
When we hear "deep state," instead of recoiling, we should rally. We should think about the workers otherwise known as our public servants, the everyday superheroes who wake up ready to dedicate their careers and their lives to serving us. The are the Americans we employ. Even though their work is often invisible, it makes our lives better.
These everyday superheroes dedicated their careers to destroying the Trump administration, not to serving the public. And, no, their work was not invisible.
Also, I’m so old I remember when I was called names for referring to the “deep state.” By people now telling us to worship the deep state. https://t.co/wC7NKPo3oM

The average daily New York Times reader is college educated and I’d bet at least a quarter hold a graduate degree. But when the paper really wants to drive a point home they’ll do it as if they’re talking to a fourth grader

Kim Jong-Un, no relation to Molly, thinks they should dial back the slavish adoration a notch or two.

Lol. Conservatives are extremists who need to rooted out. Liberals are everyday heros who are making our lives better.

There is nothing "public servant" about anyone in government.

They don't for one second believe they work for us.
Ah, we’re on “there is a deep state and that’s a good thing” today

Bizarre & a fantasy. Have they ever met any bureaucrats? They are not waking up dedicated to anything but making it through the day

Servants? Serving us? Really? Using those words is extremely offensive to me. They consider themselves better than, above us. They live and work in the center of power. They weird enormous power. They were supposed to be servants, but they refused to yield their power.

Calling deep state workers "public servants" as they oppress their supposed superiors is a logic twist so tight and fast a black hole could actually develop in its wake...

They are the mouthpiece of the state

Democracy is where a cabal of long term government staffers defies the will of the people because they think they know what's best.

They even took out an insurance policy to make sure we didn't choose the wrong person for president.
There is no way that’s a headline

They shot a video!
It’s always awesome in a democracy to be secretly governed by unelected and unaccountable officials!

These everyday superheroes make our lives better every day by doing what they do. That's the dumbest thing we've ever heard.
