It didn’t start with gas chambers.
It started with one party controlling the media.
It started with one party controlling the message.
One party deciding what is true.
One party censoring speech and silencing opposition.
One party threatening to jail the opposition.
One party weaponizing government to persecute those who fail to conform.
One party dividing citizens into “us” and “them” and calling on their supporters to harass the “thems.”
It started when good people turned a blind eye and let it happen.
Only one major party in America meets the criteria above and it sure as hell isn't the Republicans or the conservatives.

No one party controls all the other outlets. But ONLY the far right controls Fox. And that one outlet, with one message, is the ONLY one that was found guilty of intentionally systematically lying to its base. It's crazy that you can cite this quote, and NOT realize it's talking about you. Freon |

It didn't start with one party in control, that's how it ended.
It started with Germany losing a war, getting punished in the aftermath, and then facing economic ruin associated with wartime debts and global depression.
That context made it possible for a skilled demagogue to lull the German people to sleep with big promises, simple answers and a well-defined enemy.

Freon Exactly.. and that fact is rooted in him being so abjectly stupid..
When you're as stupid as that .. there's no way you can know that you're stupid..

I do not agree with your conspiracy theory. You want to see Fox as an outlier that is the only one that tells the truth, yet the evidence against it is damning. ONLY Fox, and a few much smaller far right outlets, have been found guilty of intentionally lying to their base. Of seamlessly mixing opinion shows between news broadcasts, making them seem like news as well. Of telling their base not just a single distorted message, but actually explicitly telling them how to feel. You are too deep in your conspiracy theories to see yourself from the outside, Paleo. You're consuming poison, and we're watching you drive your car ever closer to that cliff, and no matter what we tell you, you insist that the road is beautiful and infinite, and the rest of us are the ones that have it wrong. One of us in this conversation DOES have it wrong. We both think it's the other. But none of the news on the left, NONE, have paid nearly a billion dollars in fines for lying to their base. None have had their opinions hosts booted from the network. That's just Fox. Freon |

...I'm assuming we are all from the Baby Boomer generation. That being said we watched so called Media born and raised. From news papers to radio to internet and everything in-between. Its always been a tool for manipulating the weak minded among us. Using media to hide behind when Truth is the enemy...

I don’t doubt FoxNews also has one. Fox is the right-of-center establishment mouthpiece. Our legacy media has traded its watchdog for the people status for access to the powerful. The examples are plentiful. |

. Read or listen to the speeches of most every authoritarian thru history. They sound earily similar to the democrats and leftists. It’s always race and class warfare. It’s always creating chaos. It’s always promising to help thru larger and larger govt. it’s always censoring. It’s always someone else’s fault. And it’s always mandates because of some made up emergency. |

Freon “Far right” doesn’t have segments like the above. your California bubble is so insanely progressive that you can’t be trusted to analyze what is “right” and “far right”. if you have a director of an intelligence agency on your payroll, you’re nothing but an establishment propaganda mouthpiece. |

Another FAIL by Freon Your argument is retarded. You somehow believe that the vast majority of outlets, all equally as large as Fox, and all mostly owned by separate entities, which all say the same things, ONLY do so because they are controlled by some nefarious cabal of people acting in a conspiracy. You have zero evidence of this, and the coordination and cooperation necessary for it to be true is arguably implausible, yet you believe it completely. Whereas the much simpler explanation, is that they are all reporting the truth based on evidence, and since the truth is self-evident, they all report about the same thing. And the one outlet that has no competition, no other outlets fact checking it, has the exclusive ear of the far right, has actually lost repeated lawsuits against it for lying, has kicked its own extremist personalities off the air, is the only one that you trust? I cannot communicate with a person who can ignore such obvious evidence that their own view is completely based on an emotional need to cling to their world view, instead of what is actually going on right in front of their eyes. Your position on this topic is either willful, or a level of ignorance that is frightening. Freon |
