First let me say this, if you are a purveyor of "Fake" News (Get Over Here!). That is an actual Group on #Minds BTW, which you should be utilizing, but I digress.
Often asked and rarely answered well is “What is up with all this “Fake” News crap. Well, it is literally the Thought Police end run on “We The People”. As this past election has proven to them they can not control what you think as long as you still have the ability to think. Which is totally unexceptable to them. They can not control the outcomes if they do not control the incomeing. Truth bombs hurt them bad, real bad, and their only option is to disarm the rebels.
They tried using the legislature, both Federal and State, and that wasn't sufficient. They tried using the courts, again both Federal & State, and that wasn't sufficient. They tried using the regulatory agencies, but alas “We The People” prevailed. When did they try legislation and judication you may ask?, when they passed Hate Crime bills, when they imposed cruel and unusal punishment on your business. When did they use the regulatory agencies you ask, use any search engine not like G (I use Startpage) for IRS & Tea Party. All this was done in the effort to silence you, to silence dissent, to control your every thought and speech, by chilling speech. But it didn't work.
Oh, and they also tried to keep you from the truth by using ad hominem attacks on those who were publishing the truth, and that worked for awhile.
Still does to some extent, they still throw out Rasiss willy nilly, and a whole lot of people still wet themselves at the possibility of being called a rasiss. But even that is losing it's effect so then they add phobe to the end of words willy nilly but too many people are just sick that also. We are not ___ and we won't stand for their bullshit anymore.
Some terms still do work though, and you have no idea why. Terms like “McCarthyite” (even though McCarthy did expose that the Communist Party had infiltrated of the State Department), or “Bircher” (if you do not read The New American you fell for it), or “911 Truther” (if you haven't read Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth you fell for it), or “Birther” (yeah, you're still falling for that one), or “Islamaphobe” (even though the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated all levels of the Federal Government), “Tinfoil Hat Crowd”, “Conspiracy Theorist”, “Wackjob”, “Hater”, it's a long list, new items being added daily, and you will fall for it. I for one just slap their labels to my chest and wear them as medals of honor.
Perhaps we will see a reversal of the above mentioned attacks on Liberty, but I am not going to hold my breath. Perhaps all of this “Fake” News crap will evaporate into an ethereal mist in 34 days, but I ain't gonna hold my breath. Perhaps Congress will suddenly grow a pair and take back oversight of ICANN, but again I ain't gonna hold my breath. Or perhaps in a moment of Alexanderian wisdom Congress will repel the Telcom Act of 1996 – nah. That is where to true evil lies. That is where the 6 mega-Corporations that do control all of the media except for the Internet was spawned.
And therin lies the problem for them, how in the hell can they control the Internet? Actually quite simple now, after your President gave up oversight (AND CONGRESS ALLOWED IT) of ICANN. The “They” can now very easily label anyone they like as “Fake” News, use Privte Property rights (YouTwitFace is private property) to first “warn” people about them and then silence them.
Alex Jones, Matt Drudge, and Breitbart are in their crosshairs, their channels on YouTwitFace will be revoked … then their Domain Names will. And we're done, there will be no discouraging words on the Internet. There will be other casualities of course that has already started for less high profile cases.
So who are these denzions of wisdom who will grant us this better world, safe from all things offensive and all news that is “Fake”?, not who you may think. It's the men who control the International Banks.
