I had a most bizarre cognitive dissonance on NPR (or was it the BBC?)

Anyways, they were pleading for Syrian refugees, those poor refugees at some border in East Europe. And they interview a woman, a mother with child, and the mother explains her misery, how some thugs threatened to kill her if she did not let them adopt her as sister and wife on some train manifest because families get priorities.

I was like, helooooo, terrorist infiltration! But this did not even register on the comentator who was asking for help for these people.

Unbelievable.

The narrative of this story was "refugees need help". It was not "these people are savages and dangerous", and it was not "even though these people may be successfully settled, they will bring Islam". As narrative synthesizers, these "journalists" cannot just present what happened, they must support their existing narrative by whatever news passes their desks.

They are consistent and subtle. They feed an army of liberal commuters with their non stop government supported propaganda. Even though their stories have lots of interesting content, I cannot listen to them for five minutes at a time without wanting to puke. It is so obvious what they are doing, when one listens with a critical ear.
