The MSM is ok with minorities being more than equal. It's payback, and they love it. The MSM is full of minorities with a chip and self loathing whites.

With all respect to your intended meaning, I have trouble with that language:

• MSM - "mainstream media" - is to me a woefully miscast expression:

  • "media" is a plural noun, and you are talking about a singular phenomenon - "the media" are all of one accord to such an extent that no one supposes htat ABC or NBC is willing to contradict CBS - or The New York Times, etc.

  • although fictional movies and TV shows clearly manifest the same perspective that Big Journalism does, the legitimate subject of criticism actually is the tendentious partisanship of so-called "objective" journalism.

• "self loathing whites" is an expression I loathe to hear Rush using. After all, the borg of "liberals" (synonyms: "progressives," "moderates," or "centrists" or - except in that the usage only is applied to journalism - "objective") is nothing if not arrogant. The very last thing they are is "self-loathing" or "guilty" feeling. They intentionally cause that confusion by the use of the non-inclusive "we." They heap calumny on "we" without the slightest implication that they hold themselves at all responsible for what "we" have done or plan to do.

  Just as the "liberals" / "progressives" / "moderates" / "centrists" / "objective journalists" are all Newspeak for "us good guys," "we" or "us" are Newspeak codes for "you bad guys." Right along with "conservatives" or "right wingers" - or the now-obsolete old-time favorite, "right wing cold warriors."

Unnecessary and Illegitimate

"MSM - "mainstream media" - is to me a woefully miscast expression:

It is a shorthand. The term, although imprecise, has a well known meaning, and is understood by most. Yes, the MSM is not a monolith. But, the MSM is populated by "progressives" of a similar mindset. The individual entities exchange employees as any other industry does. The agenda of the MSM is obvious, and you correctly point out that this agenda is evident in the entertainment portion of their programming.

" "self loathing whites" is an expression I loathe to hear Rush using."

Again, simply a fine point. You are correct, the MSM says "we", but means you. It's no different than a family member who says something to the effect that "this family is messed up". Do they mean themselves? Of course not, they mean all the other family members! But, when one hates their family, and their roots, there cannot be a complete disconnect. While the individual may feel they have risen above, that they are a fine example of what all in their family should be, they realize that they share a common base. Therefore, self loathing is not 100% accurate, but close enough.

Excellent point. Just because leftist elites publicly perform the self loathing that middle America refuses to do doesn't mean leftist elites actually loath themselves.
