We fight against a truly unprecedented disinformation campaign, where the liars are claiming that everyone else is giving out misinformation, basically turning truth on its head.
While propaganda takes many forms, mainstream corporate media play a crucial role. The good news is that people are starting to catch on and trust in corporate media has dropped to an all-time low.

All part of the models they teach in the B-schools. My #1 grandson, now in his 20s, showed me his textbooks. They don’t even TRY to hide it.
In North Korea, children are taught that every other country in the world is living in misery as slaves of the United States.
They are taught that the only free country on Earth is North Korea, and the only force that can protect them from slavery is the god-like Dear Leader.
The young generations are not educated about this nation, it’s laws, it’s governance. They get social studies. That’s it.
I’ve noticed indoctrination going on since at least the 1970s.
The thing is, many “conservatives” have slowly had their values eroded without even realizing it - as they opted to “be polite and courteous to keep the nut cases happy”, they slowly became more tolerant of the intolerable.
That is true and I’ve noticed it as well.
Fathers need to start educating their children.
