A few years ago, here in Calgary, Alberta, we had a very early September hard frost, when the trees still had plenty of green leaves. Amongst the local media, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth, as they fretted for days about how in the spring, trees would fail to bud and grain crops would not come back. Over the winter, some trees maintained their frozen green leaves.
The next spring, there was no problem as trees bloomed and crops sprouted, and all was well. The media simply forgot all about their doomsday predictions. This is the AGM mindset, preached from the pulpit of TV, radio, internet and newspapers, and, unfortunately, schools. Most of society has been turned into sheep, believing any and all things that they hear or see on the ‘news’.
The ‘low information’ voter fails to investigate claims, merely accepting broadcast ‘news’ as truth, without examining such claims. The Lefties have known this for decades, so they infiltrated organisations that produce ‘opinion makers’, such as universities, especially ‘journalism’ and ‘educational’ faculties. The results are lefty journalists and teachers, with pulpits to ‘preach’ their ‘brand’ of ‘truth’.
