RE: We Need More Anarchists With Courage

in #anarchy7 years ago

Respectfully, the issue is not just MSM it is our intelligence levels and desire to dig deeper. There has always been "fake news", what kept it in check was that people would look to get the truth and there was also shame so if you got exposed, you had to go away. I am open to alternative news reporting but I want accountability. For example you can tell me that 9/11 was a false flag event (I have no opinion eaith way for the record, I simply don't care). But I invite you to look at those who are pitching videos on youtube. 90% of these people are putting forward theirs simply because that is how they make money. they are not good patriots, they have found a gig. When you have this percentage of people doing it, how can you ever expect to get to truth. Since the bar for news is so much lower and anyone can become a reporter, we the viewers are constantly being scammed. Again we have to be discerning and knowledgeable on a topic. When someone tells me information that contradicts popular opinion, the first thing I do is to find out who they are and are they qualified to talk about the topic. If not I disregard their point of view. It does not matter how real they seem. Do the work dude. Bring in the people who are qualified or all you have is an opinion. This is what made Snowden so powerful for me. He was in the room. We all have to have this same level or our emotion run away with us and we get passionate about positions we want to here but really do not make sense. Thanks
