Who runs the American agitprop machine?
American Thinker ^ | 28 Apr, 2024 | James Lewis

Posted on 04/28/2024 5:20:27 AM PDT by MtnClimber

“First, conquer the organs of propaganda,” wrote Karl Marx, who was a genius mob agitator and nothing else. Mob agitators were already a kind of specialty in Prussia, Poland, Russia, and Eastern Europe, but Marx wrote the instruction manual, just as Saul Alinsky did in his Rules for Radicals, which became Barack Obama’s manual for political agitators.

SNIP

About ten years ago, Tucker Carlson helped to expose a radical propaganda internet list called JournoList, a secret Google group of media influencers who made up the headlines for the next day’s news, in places like the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the U.K. Guardian.

Wikipedia tells us,

JournoList (sometimes referred to as the J-List) was a private Google Groups forum for discussing politics and the news media with 400 left-leaning journalists, academics and others. Ezra Klein created the online forum in February 2007 while blogging at The American Prospect and shut it down on June 25, 2010 amid wider public exposure. Journalists later pointed out various off-color statements made by members of the list denigrating conservatives.

That was an actual conspiracy to centralize the U.S. media. Chances are that it is still living in some secret Google group today, because the “mainstream” media are still singing from the same hymnal.

But how does the Biden Gang control the propaganda gang?

Our friends at The Conservative Treehouse propose an answer. TCT reports that Biden has a small cult called “the beach group” running lawfare campaigns around the country to undermine everything Americans believe in. Maybe ordinary Americans can pull a little lawfare on these thugs?

If Trump wins, I want him to start revengefare — the opposite of lawfare, and well deserved.

Interesting. A highly Jewish group.

Jews make up only 2% of America but apparently 65% of JournoList, a conspiracy of highly placed writers who worked to coordinate leftist propaganda and advance lq saweftism.

Lawfare combined with corrupt courts is cute. But eventually the Seth Rich solution congress into play. At least that’s been the historical example. It’s very important that courts not be seen as corrupt, lest that leave people with only force as the last alternative.
It’s no small irony that they call it “lawfare”, never noticing that it’s a substitution for the word “warfare”.

In a free country, those words should be terrifying. For me, they laid to rest any conspiracy theories that this foreign dope was the mastermind of anything at all; he is simply not very bright, and this was one of the many times he says the quiet part out loud. He is a the paid rep/salesman for 1%ers, and parrots what he is told to say - nothing more.

Exactly as you stated, but add in the fact that Obama is lazy, too. (ie didn’t practice speech, relied on teleprompter and badly at that)

There are also armies of trolls whose job is to post on various forums (including here) in order to shape opinion. These trolls can be Russian or American. Either way, they pretend to be conservative and post opinions that they want conservatives to have.

The radio equivalent of forum trolls are the seminar callers who used to call Rush Limbaugh’s show.

These troll farms were responsible for much of the Covid and antivax misinformation that was targeted directly at conservatives.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_farm

Usually, conservatives are better at detecting trolls, but for some reason, too many of them fell hook, line, and sinker, for the Covid misinformation. The trolls also hit FR to push support for Russia over Ukraine, but I think they did not have much success.

Don't waste energy on "revenge" per se. The opposition is so large the resources don't exist to bring all the people deserving of incarceration. There simply aren't enough talented conservative lawyers.

For example, if one wishes to "purge the DOJ" the first thing to fix is lawyer accreditation before the Federal courts. Do the same with graduate and undergraduate colleges and universities. Unelected accreditation bodies are the most powerful cultural institutions in this country.

Use the Department of Education to the point that the left wants to disband it. K-12 indoctrination is the foundation of the leftist system to build a demos so conditioned that it concentrates powers for purposes of manipulation of the government by our creditors.

Makes you wonder, why are so many jews leftists and in influential positions to the point that they dominate many institutions and thus the country?

Number 29 is the wig wearing Andrea Mitchell.

JournoList is no longer needed since ALL the members of CNN, MSNBC, ABC CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR are left wing hacks and simply take orders from the Biden puppet masters.

They are going to be dealt with. /spit

Not going to happen. Its the nature of conservatives, and even Trump, to "leave things alone," and just "make them run better." The GOP's role is merely to be bean-counters for the bloated Democrat deep-state

I'm trying to think of any major Fed.gov Department or Agency that the GOP has shut down, much less prosecuted, in the last 40 years. Please feel free to tell me some.

As Mark Steyn pointed out 20 years ago, Republicans and Conservatives in office are just temporary seat-warmers for the permanent Democrats and Marxists in Fed.gov, who return with a vengeance and push the apparatus of government another measure to the Left.
