It’s odd, yet predictable, what the media has done to us. As things worsen, and our precarious national opinion becomes more apparent, the media goes into top censor mode. We have left wing media, supported by left wing fact checking, balanced by big tech filtering of the internet searches, and AI feeding us what we want to see. The illusion is so great, that most Americans have stepped out of reality.
Sure, there are indicators that they have been placed into illusion. On the left, they were convinced that Trump was with the Russians. Then convinced he Obstructed Justice. Convinced Trump would destroy the economy. Convinced Trump broke campaign finance. Convinced Trump was a fascist. Convinced Trump was crazy that China was responsible for the virus. Convinced that other medications like ivermectin didn’t work. Absolutely sure Joe Biden wasn’t impaired. They had no doubt that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian propaganda. This was the most legitimate election in history.
These things should be asked of any liberal, how many do they believe? Why do they believe them?
For me, the questions I have all seem only possible if our intelligence agencies have been corrupted to a point that we no longer have a functional republic. We aren’t fighting with democrats, we have democrats that don’t understand that it’s citizens versus government.
Excellent post. I have come to the reluctant but certain conclusion that our alphabet agencies (CIA, FBI, NSA etc.) are thoroughly corrupt and they completely own the corrupted MSM. They own the tech lords who are leveraged under threat of break up or removal of legal protection.
What remains puzzling is how so many in this society are so easily and willingly committed to being mislead. They no longer think critically. They no longer are capable of reason or logic. Their “team” at MSNBC or CNN promotes whatever outrageous, illogical idea, such as defund the police, and they are all on board. It is truly bizarre.
