2. Great Rant Mike Malloy...
My Wing-Nut neighbor still believes Iraq attacked us.... even though I showed him the Youtube video of Bush saying just the opposite..

Mabe some day we will learn the truth behind JFK, OKC, 9-11, The Gulf of Tonkin incident, and many more.

6. None of the available information makes a damned bit of difference
because our mass media is corporate controlled, and they control the message.

The mass media makes sure the information doesn't get disseminated.

The mass media makes sure that the information is condemned as trivial, and conspiracy theory, and only important to the supposed lunatic fringe.

The mass media makes sure that the public is distracted with infotainment and the distractions of the day in every news cycle, so that real information can't gain any traction.

Blaming the public is, I think, missing the point entirely. If we had real a journalism industry, with real news outlets, presenting real information to the public every day telling the public that it was out duty to be informed then the public would be informed. People would want to be informed.

Unfortunately, constant repetition of messages in mass media works. PR and propaganda works. People's attitudes and beliefs can be shaped and influenced, and to a large extent controlled. The Ad and PR industries have proven this.

It would be wonderful if more people searched for the real information and found it and took the time to read and digest what is available. But people won't search for something if they don't know it's there to search for. They won't search for something if they don't know there is a reason to search or it. And that isn't their fault either.

So don't blame the victims. Blame the real culprits responsible for bombarding people with the false messages and the lack of real information. Blame Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, The Wall Street Journal, The NYTimes, The Washington Post, and every other media outlet out there that participates in burying the real news. :(

7. War is Peace in Obama's America.
I remember a time when a rant like this by Mike Malloy would have been at the top of the greatest page.

How many here on DU are sheeple now?

8. This is what gets me when talking to..
some people you tell them what is going on and they tell you its the end times so do nothing or they tell you "Those people are going to do what they want to do" and I tell them they are doing it because you are doing nothing voting,etc..

I tell them they are doing it because we need to kick their asses!and they need to know who their bosses are and who really has the power.


Sometimes, they talk so ridiculously that I have to walk away because of the stupidity I hear coming out of their mouths..

9. I agree. In every armed conflict in the world
Edited on Sat Jul-31-10 08:43 AM by burnsei sensei
since 1945, we have been on the wrong side.
We have not been a force for anything good in our wars.
So when will we break the habit?

I'm still waiting for the emergence of counter-markets, a black market that exists outside of corporate America.
I'm still waiting for people to say that they're not going to wait for the plutocrats to start investing in America again.
Our passivity is their license.
