I understand that some posts of certain published lies can help in ferreting out the truth and can be very helpful. But much of the stream of the almost endless Leftist media’s published lies posted on FR often has no redeeming value, gets everyone all pissed off and demoralized, and seems sometimes to even strengthen the lie.
If you’re told a lie, don’t repeat it. Neutralize the lie by speaking the truth. Lies aren’t defeated by repeating the lie. Lies are defeated by repeating the truth. We should have our eyes on the prize - in this case, politically, what it takes to recover our Free Constitutional Republic. That should be what we major on and focus on.
We should be mostly publishing the truth on FR, not the lies and as much good news as possible to bolster morale. We should find reliable sources that have already deconstructed the lie and replaced it with the truth and with a headline that says the truth. We need much more of that on FR IMO. The key is the headline and the first few sentences because not everyone has time to drill down. The endless stream of negative, lying headlines sabotages our purpose IMO.
This isn’t aimed particularity at you artichokegrower but to FReepers in general.
We are at war. War is hard.
Personally I am not demoralized in the slightest by the insane lying ramblings of the left - I am energized. This has all become theatre of the absurd with these klowns. They never had much in the way of objectivity but now they are banging 0% and even their contemporaries are laughing at them.
