Why I hate the mainstream media with a passion!

[Winston]

If it's not about jobs and layoffs, then the mainstream media talks about perverts, sex predators, and underage girls on craigslist, etc.

Why is any of that interesting to anyone? It's such boring trash and utterly useless. What does that teach you or help you? It's not even entertaining.

How does condemning male sex perverts uplift anyone? What's the point of it?

Who listens to that shit? It's sickening. What a waste of broadcasting time.

Why not show Steve Hoca on the mainstream media instead? He is at least truthful and talks about things that are relevant to our lives. And he does not talk like a programmed zombie like CNN reporters do.

The mainstream media is the most expensive trash program ever, a million dollars a minute to broadcast trash. What a horrible hopeless society. I'm surprised the UFO's don't decide to just nuke us.

Why can't people wake up and seek the truth like we do?

It makes me sick.

The trash media is intentional to serve as mindless diversion to dumb people down. The US media is controlled by a handful of corporations and their interests are merged with the government. As an example, during the Vietnam war there were reporters on the scene reporting during live battles, now in the Iraq and Afghanistan war, there is no on the scene reporting – no pictures of death – just fluff pieces about supporting the troops and the neat high technology – nothing to show people the reality of the world they live in. If people could actually think then we would have a democracy, which is an anathema to the elite.

Ditto this. See Noam Chomsky, Robert McChesney, etc.

Gentlemen, this is the 21st century and we don't need to watch TV from rabbit ears. You can opt to watch CCTV-9, NHK World, Channel News Asia, Al Jazeera English, etc.

RT News is another with a different perspective upon the news.

If we didn't have a "relative" degree of freedom of speech in the US, we might not be posting on this forum.

Personally, in my day to day life, I feel like I constanty have to use female friendly PC "everyone is equal" bs speech just to avoid offending some STROOONNNNG AW or her mangina supporters. It drives me bonkers.

I know that the American media is worse (CNN and FOX manage to be as laughably unprofessional as each other, despite belonging on different ideological planes), but the Australian media is also quite sorry. The news on the commercial networks isn't particularly objective and is replete with hyperbolic journalistic terms (i.e - "The Eels thrashed the Panthers") - plus you have widely watched 'companion' programs like Today Tonight that seek to arouse hatred against minorities, old people and various misfits (in fact, they were so desperate to bag a group of alleged 'dole bludgers' that they fell right into a hoax set up for them) with the use of laughably stupid stunts (like chaining old women to their beds and passing off Barcelona traffic police as Christopher Skake's personal bodyguard ).

Plus you have the same crappy American sitcoms like Desperate Housewives and SATC which just encourage adultery and thoughtless hedonism. People watch these programs and think that they're the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I think the debased media mirrors the state of our societies.

Global business interests want human beings to be nothing more than mindless, soulless consumers and workers. Individuals are increasingly alienated and atomized, they've lost knowledge of their individual past and that of the tribe or race they belong to. The founding White race, especially White men,is the victim of a 24/7/365 psywar designed to make them so ashamed of their race and their so-called patriarchy that they put up no resistance to their replacement, sometimes even welcoming it, by other races being allowed in to do the lowest paying jobs.

The family unit is under constant attack, turning men and fathers into hapless pussywhipped objects of scorn, and women into unpleasant, unfeminine creatures, little more than poor imitations of men but with a huge sense of entitlement. Family, church and community bonds, including fraternal organizations, are all greatly eroding in influence, replaced by the totalitarian watchdog presence of the corporate media, the government, and the government schools. The positive aspect is that the internet has broken the corporate media's long-time monopoly hold on the dissemination of information, but only a small number of people utilize the internet to educate themselves about how the world really works; the rest are consumed with porn, games, sports, and celebrity worship.

Monopoly capitalism helps to implement the subversive ideology of the Cultural Marxists, in conjunction with the government, the universities, the foundations, and even the military. All the institutions of control in the U.S. are part of one interconnected power structure that for the most part works in unison of purpose, serving the Washington/New York/Tel Aviv/Hollywood Axis's desire to rule the world.

Most of what we are told and shown on TV are lies. Did you all know that? Truth doesn't get broadcast.

Even the portrayal of other countries are lies, and the propaganda that every country in the world has no freedom except America. Most of the evidence contradicts that propaganda. But most Americans believe it cause they are programmed to. Ask most immigrants in America and they will tell you that they had MORE freedom (but less money) in their original countries. It's only Hollywood that shows the lie that everyone experiences more freedom in America than abroad. Reality is always different than what you see on TV.

Russians are portrayed in movies as cold, grim and sullen, while Americans as extroverted and wild. But when I went to Russia, it was the opposite. Everyone was very sociable and open to me, more than I could ever dream of. I met more people in one week in Russia, than I did in 10 years in America. In America, social interaction is mostly for business, not for bonding with others. Everyone lives in their own bubble. Neighbors don't talk to each other. It's a very isolated society, but Hollywood shows the exact opposite. Why the lie? And why the misportrayal of Russians? Why? Why? Why?

They also never use real Russian actors when they portray Russians. I wonder why. Maybe it's because real Russians do not like to portray false stereotypes about their people?

[Winston]

I think I get something now.

The reason the mainstream media always shows news about companies laying off workers, is so that it sends you an indirect message that you'd better work hard and appreciate your job like a happy slave, or else you could be next. Is that their purpose?

Also, the reason why they like to show news about sex perverts and predators is to give you the message that you'd better suppress your desires, or else you'll be condemned by everyone as a pervert. Make sense?

What other logical reason is there to broadcast such trashy stupid content that's boring and uninteresting?

Here is an example of what I mean from my video in Russia. See description below:

Did you know that nearly everything on American TV is a LIE? For instance, they ALWAYS show Russians as being cold, grim and sullen, and Americans as being open, expressive and wild. But reality is the exact opposite.

I met more people in Russia in one week than I did in America in 5 years! Seriously. No wonder why they never use real Russian actors to portray Russians. Perhaps real Russian's won't go along with this false stereotype of them?

Here in this video I show how the REAL Russians are from my three trips there. It is totally UNREHEARSED and UNSCRIPTED. You will see how sociable and fun they are in their natural environments, outside the US matrix which is all about control and fakeness.



Here's another comparison you never hear about in the US:

In America, the most friendly and inclusive people you can meet tend to be either children or elderly/seniors, not young adults and least of all, young adult FEMALES! However, in Russia, young adults, male and female, are very open, inclusive and easy to meet and socialize with. Much more than the US and other socially cliquish conservative countries!

Have you noticed something stupid about the mainstream media?

How come when they cover important topics like 9/11 Truth, they always rush it and say they only have a few minutes to talk about it. But when they talk about some trashy topic like "gay rights in the military" they ramble on like there are no time constraints and have all day!

Stupid huh?

Yes, there are many options to get information online, but most Americans have been conditioned to love the choices which the US government and US corporations approve of, so they don't even desire other options. It's like mice that have been so conditioned to enjoy life in a cage that even if you open the cage door, they don't even walk out. They'd rather run on their wheels and wait for feeding time. Real change scares them.

Most Americans are deathly concerned about fitting in in American society. If they watched alternative media, they would run the risk of not fitting in.

Americans are slaves who love being slaves.

Yes, I agree, and just like you said, I hate the reporters and talk show hosts because they are so boring, robotic and too serious.

The worse is when they try and bring on guest, and the guest only get a one minute segment, and the whole time they had to argue with the host just to get their point across. It raises my blood pressure just watching it.
