Turn Your Eyes Away
How long will mainstream media ignore massive protests in China, Brazil, Iran, and Holland against political oppression and state-sponsored election interference in the United States?
If millions of pro-democracy protesters in China call for the end of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) but is largely ignored by the U.S. leadership, has an injustice really occurred?
What about the millions of Brazilians marching in the streets against election results that saw a far-left politician somehow “win” against the popular incumbent? Where is that news coverage?
And why aren’t the nationwide protests in Iran on every newscast? Where’s the outrage at over 300 deaths?
Or, how many Americans are following the several thousand farmers in Holland protesting the seizure of their farms by the Dutch government in the name of climate change?
Here at home, why are most Americans indifferent, if not completely unaware, of the revelations that the federal government was and remains deeply involved in election interference?
How many of us realize that mainstream news organizations have been deceiving the American people about everything from vaccines to the corruption of the Biden administration?
Do such major events even matter anymore?
Only the News That Fits
Apparently not. In our 24-hour news cycle, out of sight, out of mind seems to be a primary operating principle. Using Big Tech and intelligence agencies to do so is another one.
The level of control that one party with one point of view has over American society, from school to media, is almost comprehensive. That’s not an exaggeration or hyperbole. That includes legacy and digital news agencies and entertainment media outlets. “Wokeism,” fear, and pandemic obedience are driven into the American mind daily. It’s difficult to tell the difference between the left-wing social messaging in a CNN newscast and a “woke” Disney movie.
This deep and broad penetration has resulted in effectively shaping how Americans think. It’s enabled Big Tech and federal agencies to practice deception on a massive scale in the United States.
Darkness in Social Media
But as of late, the darkness of government agencies’ intervention and their extensive capabilities are being uncovered. Recent reports highlight the fact that social media platforms are “riddled” with intelligence officers from the FBI, CIA, and others. But apparently, our intelligence agencies have been spying on social media since at least 2011.
The emerging facts of an unelected intelligence elite within the government with its own agenda, which many of us have understood for years, are dark and sinister. It is anathema to everything America is–or is supposed to be.
All doubt and deniability of the existence of a fascist element within our government have been stripped away. It is evident to those with the intellectual honesty to question the official story, their own political biases, or both.
Our news organizations have been working with each other and national intelligence agencies to lie to us for decades about our country across the spectrum. We now have proof that our state intelligence agencies, members of a president’s cabinet, Big Tech, and the mainstream media colluded to unseat a duly-elected president.
Pharmaceutical Fascism Is Here
We also know that federal agencies, Big Tech, and Big Pharma have worked closely to censor critical medical information about the CCP virus and the so-called vaccine. They did so by spreading false data about the danger of the virus to create a global atmosphere of fear and helplessness and punishing medical experts who told the truth.
They also lied about the efficacy of the cure. There is undeniable evidence that pharmaceutical firms, such as Pfizer and Moderna, knew that the vaccines were dangerous. What’s more, leading medical journals became willing shills for fraudulent cures.
Worse, there is clear and compelling evidence that the mRNA vaccines actually kill people rather than cure them, including children. Furthermore, Congress and the mainstream media were complicit with Big Pharma in promoting and even mandating the vaccines to be taken by hundreds of millions of Americans.
In short, at the very least, many things we’ve been told over the past few years have been a lie. And more lies are told to justify those lies. Meanwhile, millions of people have died or been injured unnecessarily.
Pharmaceutical fascism has rooted itself in the United States, and the mainstream media says …
Nothing.
Twitter Lifts the Veil of Secrecy and Deniability
With the Twitter revelations of the FBI-enabled spying and censoring of a sitting president, data on the CCP virus, information on the potential harm of mRNA vaccines, and many other topics, the ugly totalitarian truth is being revealed.
But even as the veil of deception is lifting, the truth is coming out, even if only a bit. It’s as depressing as it is disheartening. This phenomenon of willful blindness and deception by what amounts to the establishment is not just in the United States.
In the United Kingdom recently, a member of parliament (MP) spoke about the massive damage the vaccines have done to the British people. It’s now known that the vaccine is killing or permanently injuring as many, if not more, people than the virus.
But the MP gave his speech to a virtually empty chamber. No members of Britain’s typically aggressive and undaunted press bothered to show up.
US Media Acts Like CCP State Media
In many ways, the establishment media now resembles the CCP state media organs more than the icons and channels of free speech, news, and information that they like to claim they are.
Instead, they prioritize entertainment and social media trifles over the most significant events happening in the world. Consequently, most are incapable of discerning what’s good, proper, and important instead of what feels good in the moment. Critical thinking is rapidly receding—feelings and emotionalism triumph over reason and learning, relativism over truth. We’re seeing the upending of our cultural norms and values more each day.
It’s enough to make you turn your eyes away. But then, that’s the point, isn’t it?
