re: You have to go after and destroy the left's two sources of power

For 10+ fricking years, CNN and MSNBC has spread lies, hate, propaganda nonstop. That's why we are in this position.

You end the propaganda media then eventually it will end the bullshite happening in colleges.

It can all be traced back to the change in the Smith-Mundt Act. They got a head start knowing it was going to pass, and the world was changed forever. Now half the nation are siding with communists.

America owes this man a posthumous apology.

Many at the time knew he was speaking the truth. The communists he was fighting are the ones who demonized him after the fact.

McCarthy is one of the greatest American heroes we ever had. He tried valiantly to warn people of what was happening.

You aren't going to win this fight until you get away from the traditional mindset and idea of "media". This piece of shite wasn't made by Mainstream Media. He wasn't sitting and watching MSNBC or CNN all day. The internet, specifically social media, made this guy what he is.

I think yes and no


Normalizing things happens in the msm and once terrible things are normalized it’s only a small step to radical things


Increasing the distance between those two islands will make passage much harder. Not eliminate it but Charlie is nazi in the msm makes kill Charlie only the minor gap of “should you kill Nazis?”.


Charlie is having productive conversations on behalf of his team while encouraging values driven family building is a huge jump to the ideology of kill Charlie

1. Academia

The far left has a near stranglehold on both lower and upper education. Teacher Unions and communists have systematically poisoned young American minds for the past 60+ years. Ruby red, Christian areas have schools run by Marxists. You must take aggressive action to break up this left wing power structure, which allows a small group of radicals unfettered access to children.

They way to do this is to largely end higher education subsidies. This will starve the beast and force them to compete in the marketplace for paying students. I'm not saying it will cure them, but it will have a major moderating effect.

2. The media (both news and entertainment)

---

They're gone, anyway. They don't get nearly the subsidies that academia does. You can see they're already starving. CNN is barely holding on. MSNBC is about to go through a major rebranding/downsizing. The new media, which is largely dominated by center right and right wing voices is increasingly dominant every single day.

Some of this is going through a self-correction. Academia (and broadly, public education) does need significant work, particularly in red states where it can be done. There is no GD good reason for public universities in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama to be bastions for left-wing thought, CRT, and all that horseshite.

FoxNews does the same thing from the Right.

no - no it does not

I'm not talking about the opinion shows - but even then they stick very close to actual facts and routine logic. I have rarely seen even the opinion shows completely ignore an important topic just because it doesn't fit the 'narrative.'

The 'news' segments of FoxNews is as down the middle as it can be - sometimes avoiding making obvious statements just because they may be seen as "political" = relying on their commentary sections to do that.

Not so with CNN (the one I go to first when something political 'breaks') or MSNBC (who never present anything fairly)

The words to look for in the alphabet news media are "alleged" - "without evidence" - "widely debunked" - "unsubstantiated" - etc. whenever they are forced to make some token commentary about a breaking news item that does not fit their narrative like Hunter's laptop, election fraud, Hillary's emails, etc..

They have NEVER been known to use any of those qualifiers when they report news that is in line with their narrative - like George Floyd, Jan6, etc. - anything that supports the 'narrative' is spewed out as though it were chiseled in stone straight off the mountain top.

It is sometimes subtle, sometimes like a loud fart in the middle of a wedding ceremony.

I couldn't agree more.

I would add Hollywood, but most of them are so stupid that they usually end up helping our cause. I mean, does anybody really respect Robert DeNiro or Rosie O'Donnell outside of the most pathetic losers on the Far Left?

Academia

---

To go after them in lower education vote in activists School Board Members but our activists and start clearing them out

The fun part is going after them in higher education, the only reason they've thrived in higher education is the sheer amount of money that colleges have been getting. A version of student loan forgiveness where the money clawed back from the universities would be damn near crippling

The dept of education has to be dismantled.

It was spawned by executive order, it should be dismantled by the same.

The GOP establishment will use the Kirk assassination as excuse to stop college recruiting efforts. They are perfectly willing to concede young people to the Democrats. They will say there is too much hatred on campuses.

I like what I’m seeing and I hope you’re right but I’m skeptical that it is lasting. (I’m an old pessimist)

We can’t let up that’s for sure
