The American mass media has again been weaponized, you and I are once again the targets.
How does the mass media get away with the same people who were also experts last week on domestic violence, and to trash Obama, on climate mutation the week before, and to trash Obama, the economy the week before that, and to trash Obama, tan suits experts also, and to trash Obama, now these same folks are trotted out to be experts on war, international politics, religion and military strategy?
Is it because mass propaganda works better when folks see a familiar face delivering the drivel?
Really, America, give your heads a shake. You have seen this movie before, you have heard the same drumming sound, you have felt the same mass media generated fear....Fuck Up Iraq, it was not a dream, it happened.
Remember the Dixie Chicks.
It is not that folks are not paying attention, I think they are, it is that everything they are paying attention to is being dished out to them in appetizer size bites by media whores wearing "I Am Not An Idiot" eye glasses and shouting their shaky fear laced opinions and perfectly idiotic speculations, day after day, week after week, sowing fear 24/7 until most just say STFU, I believe you, I AM scared.
I now understand how the Third Reich came to be, even as the factual history of 1930's Germany still seems to me fantastical.
I understand how some say AQ has won the war on terror, because Americans, owners of the most powerful military in the history of the planet, the most sophisticated intelligence gathering system, a nation separated by an ocean from the scary men in pick up trucks, can now be so easily sent scurrying in fear at just the sight of a beheading video. All assisted on purpose to be fearful by a fear mongering media that is now more the enemy than the enemy.
How much do you think ISIS would have had to pay in ad fees for all the times the mass media played their propaganda clip, their commercial selling fear? A clip intended to terrorize. If only they could figure out a way to get mass numbers of Americans to watch it?
ISIS should be sending the American Association of Broadcasters a fucking thank you card, at least.
A cake for CNN and Fox.
I am sometimes afraid to say what I believe, but I am not afraid to say that fascism has been kindled in America, a two party state in a nation divided by economic inequality is always going to be vulnerable to attack by fascists no matter now strong the federal constitution might be.
Get out and vote folks. Get out the unlikely voters to vote, they are likely to vote our way.
