Fox News IS literally a terrorist organisation [View all]

I am sitting here, at 734 AM, after seeing people in Dallas hugging cops (that made me cry and gave me a brief feeling of hope), listening to a fucker like Trump even sound (or his surrogates) somewhat rational (don't flame me for saying that, I know he is a fucking rotter to his dark fucking core). watching Newt fucking Gingrich making a cogent statement to white America about how they do NOT know how PoC feel. I see people at least trying to come together and maybe, just maybe have a wee bit of good come out of this madness and death parade.


THEN

I switch stream to Fox.

And they are literally trying to bait BLM and others in Baton Rouge with bullshit agent provocateur reporters ramping shit up at the protest. They CONTINUOUSLY are playing BLM videos with BLM chanting death to cops, pigs in a blanket fry like bacon. They have assholes wall to wall making false and inflammatory statements. They are ripping Obama on every front for BULLSHIT reasons.

This shit is being viewed by millions of people who could possibly be turned away, even if a little, from their goddamn racist thinking IF they WERE NOT fed the Fox HATE psyop 24-7.

I am beyond raging. Fox is willfully trying to instigate short term immediate violence, and prevent medium to long term repair of our goddamn social and racial fabric.

They are THE ENEMY of the USA, ALL the USA, every single person on some goddamn level, no matter what race or socioeconomic level other than the .1% (not 1, 0.1!). Blood is on their fucking dirty fucking hands. I feel so so helpless to do anything (even if I was there in the US atm).
