It's The Media Stupid

[OldYallow]

Humans are stupid and can be herded, and brainwashed easily. Millions of Americans have been convinced to ignore obvious facts. They have been convinced to accept evil, and resist good all because of their "ideology"..... They live in an alternate universe where up is down, watching your neighbor's kids starve to death is ok, and lying is just fine because the ends justify the means in all situations.

We are screwed folks. The cause of this "problem" is hate radio, corporate funded think tanks, and corporate (billionaire) controlled media.

Ever see a show on how many people died in Texas because Perry/Abbott didn't expand Medicaid? Ever see the death toll? Won't happen. Ever see a number on corporate media of how many people have died, or will die from climate change? Nope. Too much profit in it for them ignoring it.

The media serves our owners, and is there to distract us so we don't ask for our fair share from them.

I know many "conservatives". They are actually evil, but they don't know it. They have been brainwashed.

What can be done about it?

WE NEED TO TAKE "OUR" COUNTRY BACK! Not the racist Nazi assholes that use that statement.

1. We need to take our MEDIA back.

Won't be easy, but possible some/many now will recognize the need.

2. An Officer Gets Shot And It Is Headline News For A Month

100 people die because they can't afford medical care, and there is nothing. Media silence. I guess needlessly dying Americans isn't news.

We are being herded.

4. no, the threat of classified risotto recipes leaking to the russians is no longer operative.

the white house is now safe for the party that outs undercover cia operatives and shares contraband intel with the russians.

6. This can't be said enough

7. Depends. Many photojournalists are true artists. The writers mostly failed fiction authors.

But mostly they are just paid to seem stupid by their corporate masters.
