Corporate Media and Neocon Propaganda Will Get Millions Killed
Nightly corporate news, recently featured two stories on the
same night that were terrific examples of corporate media practicing incredibly
good propaganda techniques. Did you get you taken in by them? Herman Goering would be very proud of our
corporate media propaganda tactics and skills.
First came the story of the alleged Russian hacking of the e-mails
of the DNC. Mind boggling as it was, the
networks just repeated the mantra that those nasty Russians did this, but never
offered one shred of evidence to support their outrageous accusation. A couple of “anonymous “sources were
mentioned, but not a bit of proof. Not the slightest bit of proof. It was an
exercise in pure propaganda. Over and over in the reporting, Russia was blamed
without citing any evidence. The fact is,
no one knows who hacked the DNC, but a great American hero Edward Snowden, said
if the Russians did it the NSA would know it right away. They don’t know
it!! This is just an outstanding example
of neocon war rhetoric and the demonizing of the target for the future war that
the US is provoking between the US and Russia.
Putin, of course, is always depicted as a satanic figure, and some right
wing cooks like John McCain, Marco Rubio, Lindsey Graham, and Hillary Clinton,
have even compared him to Hitler. Let’s see now, wasn’t that the same term used
by neocons about Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi? It was President Bush who
went one step farther and said Saddam Hussein was even worse than Hitler. Corporate
media has obviously been hijacked by the neocons, the same corporate media, and
pretty much the same group of neocons, who repeatedly echoed lies and whipped
the US public into hysteria, thus supporting the illegal, unnecessary, immoral
war on Iraq and its nonexistent WMDs.
For the sake of argument, let’s assume the Russians did in
fact hack the DNC. Is that any worse
than the US government tapping the phones of almost every world leader? Why, if the Russians are so evil for doing
this, is it not mentioned that we have been caught doing far worse? Is Obama
worse than Putin for tapping the phones and emails of world leaders, or is it
ok if we do it, but not for others? How many times will the public fall for the
same corporate media trick?
The second example was the bait and switch tactic used to
protect the DNC, the Democratic Party, and Hillary Clinton. Media’s tactic to divert your attention from
the contents of those leaked e-mails was to shift the attention from the
content, to those nasty Russians. The
content has not been discussed at all. Media did what your brother did to you
when he wanted your potato chips. Your brother pointed to something in another
direction and exclaimed “hey, look at that”!!
Your attention was diverted to “that”,
and he stole your chips. Media diverted your attention to “that”, Russia, so
you would never know just how corrupt and crooked the Democratic party
leadership really is.
The leaked e-mails made one thing very clear. Debbie
Wasserman Shultz was caught doing very shady, unethical, and disgusting things
to the Sanders campaign. Despite her resignation, Hillary Clinton the Warrior
Queen, immediately rallied to Schultz’s cause, and rewarded her by bringing
Shultz into the campaign. The message
sent by the Warrior Queen, is that corruption and unethical tactics that help the
Clinton cause will be rewarded. Is that what we want in a president?
Corporate media serves as a mouthpiece for the official
government line, and it also serves the neocon need for blood and war with Russia.
Do you really want a war with Russia?
You had better turn off the propaganda machine and tune in to
alternative news, so we don’t have a nuclear war with a rebuilt and powerful
Russia. What could cause a nuclear war with Russia?? How about overthrowing a democratically
elected pro-Russian leader in the Ukraine, how about installing nuclear
equipped missiles all around Russia, how about sending the US navy into
Russia’s back yard in the Baltic Sea, how about conducting war games 300 yards
from the Russian border, and how about blaming Putin and Russia for hacking the
DNC without on bit of evidence? How many pokes at the Russian bear before he
turns on you with nuclear violence?? Putin recently spoke at length with international
journalists and told them they were not reporting on the seriousness of the
possible nuclear confrontation with the US. He said he was extremely worried because
people have not been told just how serous this confrontation has become.
Folks, corporate media and neocons are brewing something
very horrible for the world. Tune into what is going on, by tuning out
corporate media, before you find yourself in a nuclear holocaust.
