MSM is like a strange drug that keeps us more upset than we need to be about some things, but not as upset as we should be about other things. It curates the news in such a way to keep people always on edge about what’s happening but never empowered enough to do anything about it

We don’t even have news anymore. That’s exactly what the impeachment did; obfuscate. While Congress obsessed over a call to Ukraine, they overlooked things far more nefarious; the Khasshogi Coverup, the Betrayal of the Kurds & Attacks on Yemen.

How would you expect media to “empower” anyone, except with facts? They do a fair job with that, but the crazies that lie do it better with alternative facts and there are lots of stupid, uneducated, angry, and gullible people.

That’s what it’s designed to do, keep all in fear and disempowered.
