Does the media really think that we are that stupid?

I am sick to death of the negative spin the networks are putting on president Trump. EVERYTHING that they say and broadcast is in the negative. A blind and deaf person can tell that they are strictly working their own agenda and that nothing we think as citizens is of any consequence. We are simply GOY to be used and then slaughtered when they are done with us. They can all go to hell! I am tired of being treated as a stupid slave.

Look left, they're on your right. Indeed. I was transported back to 2009 last week. Look right, they're on your left. Instead of dealing with anything substantive, they threw the Health "care" red herring debate at us...again. (2009 all over) Look left, they're moving on the right. (2009 all over) I wonder how many thousands of $millions were stolen from the country last week while the focus was on Health"care" Look right, they just moved left. $54 bil in welfare to the MIC --they're on your left-- and-- you looked right-- and some fake "news" about some kind of... oops you looked right, they're on your left...health"care" debate, and not a step closer to any kind of infrastructure plan. They're on your right now, they had you looking left..

I was watching the BBC world news tonight. Then I watched ABC network news. I got more info from the BBC about America....

I don't know if media thinks that we're that stupid but president Trump certainly seems to think we are.

Imo, the nation is near the end of the cycle that Alexander Tytler spoke about.

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury. After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing, always to be followed by a dictatorship, then a monarchy."

Too many "voters" are ignorant and selfish and don't care about the future of the nation. Only about themselves and today. The question isn't whether or not it collapses, but how long the inevitable can be delayed. Trump merely delayed it longer than Hillary would have. A collapse is as inevitable as yours and my eventual death - its unpleasantness doesn't prevent it.

I subscribe to this theory: I prefer peace, but if there is to be turmoil, let it happen in my time so my children can live in peace.

I think the media in Canada is worse than the mainstream media in the US. Every night on the news they have to slag Trump. They blame everything up here now on the "Trump Effect". I laugh every night at the ridiculous garbage they spew out to the sheeple. I get my "real" news from links posted by Steve Quayle, King World News for financial, Greg Hunter, Clif High, Catherine Austin-Fitts, the list of good commentators is numerous.

John, I don't play the roulette wheel and I seriously doubt that you do either. But if you've pushed all your chips onto Orange16 you better take some of them off the table and diversify. The man is too unstable to get out of his own way. He continually sets what you are calling "the media" up with slam-dunks.

The media exists mostly to misinform ignorant people who need someone to spoon-feed them their agenda-driven disinformation.

Personally I don't care what the media says, and that includes Fox News. Nor do I allow myself to be tricked into choosing between choices that aren't there. The choices were Hillary or Trump, and to me that made Trump and easy choice.

Lately we have been turning off Fox News and instead watching Gold Rush or one of the Alaska shows. Stress level reduced, better scenery.

I love listening to the BBC newshour on the radio. It's just so precious, smug and pretentious. It's PBS on steroids. At least half their stories are designed only to elicit emotion. It's no wonder that the British think Katty Kay is a real journalist.

I wish there was something else in the wide gap between CNN, NYTimes etc and Fox News.

Woody, try getting the American Free Press! Very good!

The media began bashing Trump the second it was announced that he would be running for President. ( effectively and intentionally giving him the vast majority of the media coverage ) I normally could care less about who is elected um I mean "S e l e c t e d" into whatever political position but they hounded on Trump so badly and so often that it caught my attention in a big way. ( Mine and everyone else ) So I learned all I could about it and listened to what the man was saying. After about a week I was going around telling everyone that Trump would be the Republican Nominee to which they all laughed me off the planet including my own wife and children.

Who could possibly have the power to "S e l e c t" a president? Where does power originate from? I think most all of us know that money is the answer. If you can follow the money trail you will learn the truth. What group has been gaining even more in recent years? More so than ever before while the majority stay stagnate or go backwards?

What group does the person that got "S e l e c t e d" belong to? How many other persons in this same or similar group got "S e l e c t e d" by the person who was "S e l e c t e d" first thus given the power to "S e l e c t" the others? Placing them into the highest positions of power. None of it was a coincidence. Especially not Comey reopening the case against Hillary near election day just to be sure He got into office! All the Multi Millionaires and Billionaires love the poorly educated, not just Trump! After the first hundred days are over with, they will begin accomplishing all the things they really want! :huh:

And why the hell wouldn't the site let me type the word "S e l e c t e d" normally? wtf? :S

It's been a while. Not sure what it was about....perhaps infrastructure. I don't listen to it much, but it did strike me that there was more relevant info about America than I'd get in a month's worth of GMA. U might even say I'm a little tired of satellite radio. Starting to sound the same. I was exploring the dial

As far as I can tell England has always been a bit stiff/precious and a lot smug/pretentious, even when they had enough strength and muscle to take nearly all of the pretend out of pretentious, something they clearly no longer have. They've always felt that they were "in" Europe but not "of" Europe. They got the hell bombed out of them in the 1940's but they haven't been occupied by an enemy army since 1066. That's coming up close to a thousand years. I personally have trouble clearly picturing a thousand years.

Nonetheless, if you lived in one of the Nazi-German-occupied countries (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Norway, Netherlands, France, & etc.) during World War II, only seventy years ago, you would most probably forgive the BBC just about anything to this very day. We are absurdly spoiled. Not to mention very often precious, smug, and pretentious ourselves. jmho.

Theyve always felt that they were in Europe but not of Europe.

Texas feels kinda like that. :-)

Well, we did until we became invaded by Californians and Mexicans, intent on making this just like the place they were so desperate to escape.

Roofguy, without borders, you CANNOT be a country or a state. Build the damn wall and kick out everyone that is not a citizen. Kick out the leftover Bush and Obama cronies. Take back our country TODAY! if not sooner.

You are so right. If they jailed the employers that are hiring them, the hiring would stop. No hiring, no illegals. As far as the drugs are concerned, as long as there is a demand, the supply will be there to meet it. The government is the biggest supplier of drugs, and the cartels are just getting a piece of the action. I can assure you that there are no drug "busts" of the governments shipments. Put the bankers in prison that are laundering the cartels money for them and a lot of that would stop too. It would be easy to spot the guilty characters in the government if we stopped the cartels by making it so they could not clean their money. I would also execute a lot of the pushers that are doing the dirty work for the cartels on the street. If we let a bunch of the junkies die, that would dry up some of the demand too. many ways to cut down on that problem.

Old School Said: Roofguy, without borders, you CANNOT be a country or a state. Build the damn wall and kick out everyone that is not a citizen. Kick out the leftover Bush and Obama cronies. Take back our country TODAY! if not sooner.

Yup!
