As it becomes increasingly clear that yesterday’s conspiracy theories are today’s real news, the call to kill the messengers just gets more shrill and hysterical.
The attacks on free speech with high-tech censorship campaigns and old-fashioned hit pieces in the “War on Fake News” are massive and concerted.
The book burners are starting so many fires it’s impossible to stamp them all out.
What are the horrible thought crimes committed by the alternative press?
The new media has consistently exposed the lies and crimes of our corrupt and broken institutions.
Pioneers of alt media have passionately and convincingly made the case that The Patriot Act literally reversed the gains to human liberty codified in The Bill of Rights.
Independent media dismantled the lies that were presented as the pretexts to the invasion of Iraq. The same lies aggressively promoted by Bush, Hillary Clinton, CNN and The New York Times and that resulted in the death of a million people and global chaos. By contrast, how many people have died as a result of alternative media reports? The answer is zero.
The independent press interviewed NSA whistle-blowers who accurately described how the U.S. government was illegally spying on its citizens and retaining our data, and how these whistle-blowers were being persecuted by their own government for coming forward and refusing to break the law.
This was years before anyone heard of Edward Snowden.
Amazingly, there was very little interest in these bombshell allegations in the mainstream press.
It’s hard to believe now, but in those days, people who claimed the government was spying on innocent citizens were dismissed as paranoid by the self-proclaimed arbiters of truth at the NYT and CNN.
Grassroots media detailed a decade ago how police forces all over America were becoming militarized and predicted that this dangerous trend would lead to racially charged conflict on the streets of the nation. What kooks!
We have also railed against; torture, needless wars, police brutality, government corruption, the two-party duopoly, the criminality of the banksters and the end of privacy.
Now the very same mainstream media hacks who promoted the lies that lead to war in Iraq and Libya and mindlessly regurgitate whichever talking point is uploaded onto their teleprompter are gleefully assassinating what they call “fake news” using edited tape and misleading hit-pieces.
While these discredited war cheerleaders lie about why our sons and daughters are sent to die, we are bravely exposing the fraudulent casus belli they traitorously and disgracefully promote.
While these corporate spokespeople work for the interests of the oil and drug companies and political forces that pay their salaries, we risk everything to expose the crimes and scams of these same broken institutions.
We have done a great public service by exposing the deceptive, psychological methods used by the ruling elite to warp historical narratives, manipulate patriotism and manufacture consent.
By helping people to recognize and suspend their belief in propaganda and therefore their own complicity in it, the alternative media is helping to create a public awareness to the tactics our enemies use to keep us divided, steal our rights and slaughter countless innocents all over the world.
I know it’s fun and easy to call us tin-foil-hat wearers, or whatever pejorative has been chosen for you today, but let’s be clear about whose dirty work some are doing. Ironically, many are using talking-points written by deep-state operatives to ridicule the idea that the deep-state exists at all!!
Alternative media is in direct competition with the mainstream media for revenue and the MSM want to control the information we are exposed to.
The MSM is waging a concerted demonization campaign aimed at destroying some of the dominant platforms exposing the lies and crimes of their corporate and deep-state masters and many are helping them do it.
The MSM is an enemy of the truth and of the people. Friends of mine have been accused of being Russian agents in The NYT because they simply told the truth about Clinton during the campaign.
The corporate press has gone from lying to the American people to lying about the American people.
Do we have the will and power to destroy our common enemy?
“…Do we have the will and power to destroy our common enemy?…”
We already have destroyed the Zionist media, but we have several “common enemies” left to tackle.
All you really have to do is cause people to question what’s in “the news”, and they’ll start to see through the lies by themselves. They’ll never admit that you were right, but instead they’ll flaunt their new-found “superior wisdom” to others, and thus our numbers keep growing.
Belief in mainstream media lies is as powerful as a belief in any religion, in that people don’t want any disturbance of their personal assessment of how the world operates. Expose a few lies of the mainstream media and their belief system will develop cracks. Once they begin to question what they’re being told it will crumble, because the mainstream media is becoming more and more desperate with their lies.
They believe it because they were taught to believe it, and never bothered to question (and are loathe to question) their “reputable and respected” sources of information. Doing so forces them to enter a scary world in which they know nothing.
And it gets worse. After they discover that the Zionist news is nothing but lies and distraction they have to learn that the same lying bastards decided what they were to learn in college, and since their college “education” has some degree of pride attached to it, they’re shattered by discovering that they really know very little of importance. Enter the subconscious defense against truth.
Nice essay Jolly!
lol…. maybe a little too long-winded for the comments section?
Easy—seek the truth, and live in reality. Unfortunately, there are folks out there who will have to be hit hard by reality or the truth before they seek it.
But it seems to me the Zionist controlled media is virtually destroying itself…yesterday I read an article about how white Hollywood celebs are being shamed nearly out of existence (Supposedly this applies to Taylor Swift and some “redneck” actor, forget his name), or they have to become Katy Perry types who “hate” their whiteness. And if this is true, then at some point many whites, coming to realize that the Zionists want taken out of the way, will be hit hard with truth. Hopefully, so will blacks and Hispanics and Asians, who are now being used as useful idiots (esp. blacks, who, when I was growing up, mostly hated Jews….how times have changed.)
“Pioneers of alt media have passionately and convincingly made the case that The Patriot Act literally reversed the gains to human liberty codified in The Bill of Rights.”
Pioneer Henry.
“Alternative media is in direct competition with the mainstream media for revenue…”
They’re in direct competition with ‘PROGRAMMING’.
