Who needs information anyway? Just listen to music.
You are overlooking a significant distinction. TV is 100% propaganda, half-truths, distortions and lies while some truth can be found on the internet amidst its own propaganda, half-truths, distortions and lies.
Who is at the root? We can't strike at the unknown.
Not an individual, but rather an idea, a system. Why is BLM getting so much money and so much airtime?
Tell me about George Soros, open-societies, globalization, the prerogatives of capitalism, the nature of democracy, identity-politics, and government education.
What are the real values of America? What is America really trying to do? How did we get here?
Hm. I work for a professional organization in DC, where 60% of our workforce is Black and Latino. All with college degrees and many with post grad degrees.
Should they be worried?
Do you actually KNOW any Blacks and Latinos? Why do you just assume they all work in chicken factories, housekeeping and farm fields?
If they only knew who the backbone is in all those Gov't offices in DC and all over the country lol.

Where did you get the idea that that poster said all Blacks and Latinos work those jobs?
The truth is that illegal aliens displaced many unskilled workers. Some of those unskilled workers once had jobs that propelled them into the lower middle class. Illegals came along and employers hired them because they are a source of cheap, illegal, exploitable labor. Unskilled workers come in every race, religion and ethnicity.
As for educated, skilled workers --- many have lost their jobs to H1-B visa holders.
So, a very small minority of people are making the news right now, they represent a very small percentage of the American population. Those people are looking to change America through anarchy and by ripping a tear in the fabric that holds us all together. The media gives this fringe element their 15 minutes of fame. Politicians seem to appease their ideas. These people will burn cities to get noticed.
My question is this, when are the rest of us going to fight back? Are we there yet or still waiting for that last straw? How many old black children need to die before we say enough is enough? How many cops need to be assaulted before we put our feet down and not tolerate this behavior?
Why is Joe Public afraid of these guys? Why when outnumber them 9 to 1 do we remain silent on the sidelines and watch our cops, friends, and cities be destroyed?
Do we just hope this is going to go away on it's own?
What are YOU going to do about it?
How close are we to a push back?
It's tough when that minority has the President on their side. I've said the same thing, but practically speaking, it's not as easy as just "standing up". Get out and vote. Be the change we need.

The media does more than that. Major Western news outlets and content providers routinely sell this movement to the public. And they are far more effective at tearing the fabric of society than the anarchists in the street.
Yes, that has been said all the way back to slavery. They are taking the mile, deal with it.
I'd prefer to push back.
