Trump will end Medicare! Trump will shred the Constitution! Trump will cut Social Security! These fakestream media lies are intentional scare tactics. The fake stream media today, as typified by The Washington Post, The New York Times, and other prominent newspapers; in tandem with broadcast and cable media such as NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, and CNN; added to National Public Radio are all complicit.
They demonize the Right, the police, Caucasians, and American society in general. The battering is unceasing and results in significant consequences.
Terror Tactics, Directed at Blacks
Nationally syndicated columnist Larry Elder observes that approximately 50 million police-civilian interactions occur annually with nearly 11 million people getting arrested. Today’s dominating media, however, can efficiently elevate any relatively rare incident in which an unarmed black man or woman is killed by police.
Did you know that nearly 60,000 police officers are assaulted annually? This onslaught unfortunately leads to an average of 1,000 people killed by the police. In virtually all such incidents, suspects either resisted police or brandished a deadly weapon. Of those killed, nearly one-quarter were black males. Fatal shootings involving a white police officer and an unarmed black man or woman, nonetheless, account for less than 4% of the total.
Based on findings from the Manhattan Institute, police officers themselves are 18.5 times more likely to be killed by black suspects than vice versa. How do the fake stream media approach this reality? They work relentlessly to ensure that policing, as well as violence throughout the country, is never depicted accurately.
Instead the media offer outrageous, massive focus on a handful of useable incidents, often nurtured for weeks and sometimes months, to systematically spread fear into African American communities that the nation’s police are out to execute them.
Seconds to Make Life-time Decisions
Do you recall the incident with Jacob Blake, in Kenosha WI, in 2020? When a suspect turns away from police, as Blake did, he or she is inviting harm because no police officer can determine if the suspect is reaching for a weapon. As such, two split-second instincts are required: 1) Believe that a resistant suspect will turn around and injure or kill me, and 2) Save my own life by firing my weapon.
Bureau of Justice Statistics for 2018 reveal that black-on-white murders and violent attacks totaled 547,948. Vice versa totaled112,365. Since there are six times as many whites as blacks, accounting for overall representation in the populace means that black-on-white violence is 30 times more prevalent than white-on-black violence. Not three times, not eight times, and not eighteen: 30 times more likely.
The fake stream media is counting on their constituents and on American society in general to NEVER learn the truth. Indeed, the fake stream media conspire everyday to ensure that black Americans are both angry and scared of police.
Persecution of black American occurred for many years in our history and the media is well-skilled in eternally exploiting historical white guilt. They have long known that ramping up fear and distrust keeps more black Americans voting Democrat, even while Democrats have done virtually in 50 years for these voters. While Donald Trump enjoyed in 2024 a notable turnout among black voters, the vast majority automatically vote Democrat.
The Bubble Persists
Those on the Left dwell in the fake stream media bubble and are hardly ever exposed to alternative views. Instead, they gobble up the media’s massive, fear-mongering campaign. Ironically, if you’re a black person in America, you’re likely to be safer here than almost anywhere else, even considering the disproportionate involvement blacks have with police.
Sadly, legions of Americas are not exposed to reality, because the fake stream media’s massive propaganda campaign is ultra-effective. The constant, low-level psychological terror that today’s fake stream media intentionally champions among black Americans predictably hinders many from feeling welcome and accepted, and as if they are a part of the U.S. mainstream. With an honest media, this phenomenon would disappear in weeks.
