We have got to take our messaging fight to hate radio.

Last edited Sat Dec 22, 2018, 03:28 PM - Edit history (2)

Hate radio is determined to define us and is dialed up to 11.

I am hearing more stations on the dial loudly and emotionally defining us.

Yesterday I learned that liberals don’t understand the basic goodness of American people across the country. That we control all the newspapers, tv news, movies and our kids education from k- graduate school, and we hate America.

We have got to define ourselves and figure out how to get our message to people.

The nerve of these fuckers. Calling us less than American. We bled too, and still do. We are the ones standing g for American values of fairness and equality and brotherhood. They stand for the opposite. (The people making their terrible policies, not the regular people who are being duped.)

I realize this is not new but the breadth and valence of their message has scaled up a lot.

I wonder if Russia is funding that assault on our country too.

So many people in this country need to hear our values and we are not being heard.

Imagine if Rachel Maddow’s show was on the air across the country on the radio? I kappreciaye her podcast is available but you have to go look for it, and know what to look for.

The right controls the majority of the airwaves even as the right promotes the fiction of a liberal media.


Money talks, and it talks loudly.

I mean ask any Republican and they'll tell you that the left controls the media, k-12 education, science, medicine, colleges, the judges in most courtrooms, and on and on. With all that going against the GOP, they still find a way to control over half the states and 3 branches of government along with the Supreme Court.
