Assault on Our Media, Telling Us What is Fake From Fake People, Propagandist, Lobbies in the White House, Programmable Trump Gullible Desperate Voters
I think that we’ve seen an unprecedented assault on our media, Internet freedom, journalist, magazines, and newspapers. We’ve seen a deep insulting of our free press. And, in fact, a war on objectively true information that when something is reported that someone does not like you can just say it’s not true whether it is or not. You can try to undercut the messenger and talk about how these are just biased reporters, don’t listen to them. In fact, the populist and the alt-right nationalist (Trumpeters) just can come out with just bullet statement without any intellectual followup in stating what if fake or shooting down full article or explanation of a full paragraph or story. When, in fact, often these are fair reporters who’ve worked very hard to get things right. That has real ramifications. I mean we’re facing the prospect of living in a world that is post truth where there are no objective truths. Where you can tell me the sky is purple, the sky is green when in fact we’re looking at it and we see that it’s blue. That becomes very dangerous potentially for democracy, right. Because in a world in which the truth is unknowable how do we make governing decisions and then also how do we hold people accountable? How do we demand better of our elected officials if our elected official do not have to acknowledge reality at any point in time, right. A politician just go where the trend is anyway, in which they are puppets, in what Trump has learned to do because he is an opportunist, now especially with the Zionist Lobby, the Evilanglist Con Council, the Military Complex and Big Saudi Oil. They can just tell us that no, they did not say the thing they said. No this policy would not do the things we know it would do. I think that’s particularly dangerous and I think that it’s difficult.
