Should we shut down left-wing media?

[Questioner]

Lately the Democratic party and "left" wing media has been used for the purposes of rabble rousing, inciting violence, and perpetuating misinformation to the uneducated Demographic.

This could give as a good case for repealing the First Amendment, or using the state's power to shut down Democratic media, including social media which incites violence and anarchy.

In practice, I don't think it would be too easy to do - the government could simply shut down TV and radio such as the Colbert Report, NPR, as well as social media outlets such as YouTube channels which incite violence, hatred, and immorality in the lowest common denominator.

In practice, most of their "rights" are imaginary anyway, and are merely fed to them via their misinformation outlets by rabble rousers - simply shut them all down, and remind the Democratic party and it's mouth-breading demographic of their rightful place under the state's hierarchy.

As an example, anyone who uses the term "white supremacist", "Nazi", or "fascist" could be profiled by the FBI and the CIA, given that anarchist groups have abused this term. (Much as how actual white supremacy groups may be being monitored as well).

Yup, just like China, North Korea, Russia and the like.

Meh... who would really miss banning an idiot who thinks that 99% of the world they live in is part of a "racist, white supermacist conspiracy theory"? If they're even allowed the pretense of "frees peach" at all, it's for entertainment value only.

Once more for the alternative facts crowd

You're a moron who doesn't know what "facts" are, nor what "alternative is" - a fact is a piece of information - in any court or legal setting, different sides present different opinions, evidences, and so forth, and the Judge and Jury deliberate on them. It's possible for both sides to be presenting contradictory information, and neither side "lying".

You don't even know something as basic as how a civil or court works, which is what your misinformation and silly meme about "alternative facts" is about to begin with. Education past the 6th grade level would be your best frend.

; your Edward L Bernaysish media machine was deregulated (the FCC) under the Clinton administration. As an incremental result over time, what was once 50 some odd companies in that space got monopolized down into half a dozen multinational corporations. How do you like monopolization and deregulation now? America used to know better than to allow this sort of thing.

This is the kind of influence and control that we see in mainstream media today too.

Thanks to the giant transnational corporations that own them, mainstream media outlets tailor their programming to appease their corporate backers."

I fail to see your point, other than that it sounds like you're saying the entire legal system and police force is part of a "white supremacist conspiracy theory".

And if so, then good luck getting anyone to preserve your rights, you're fighting a battle you can't win.

You are a fascist. Your views are unamerican. You're white. Turn black or into anything else not white then come talk to us about white supremacy.

Piss off.

MLK doesn't agree with you.

If the whole state is against you, then I'd venture you've already lost.

MLK took on the entire war machine and the economic system itself pard. Are you that unaware?

MLK doesn't agree with his racist or violent views.

A "white person" designed his computer, so he's still somebody's Sambo whether he realizes it or not. And not because he's black, but because he's too immoral to come up with any theory which isn't predicated on violence, conspiracy theories, or persecution complexes.

No, that is a slippery slope we should not go down. I would propose an alert to show up on the screen or be stated on radio that says "The speaker is currently stating opinion or speculation". Granted this could get annoying on CNN since the alert would never turn off.

That is of course way too tedious and dances around the issue, which is very simply that the listener or viewer HAS TO RECOGNIZE what's fact and what's opinion. Clearly there's a significant lack of understanding there; witness my challenge put out last January for anyone anywhere to find me any evidence of MSM publishing defamatory info about the Smirk-Boi in the MAGA hat. I've still got zero on that, yet wags wallow around here convinced that it exists.

You're free to assign whatever views to me you wish, happens here all the time. Why are your christians so unlike your Jesus? And how did america come to be? Violence. There is nothing more identarian politics than what the founders set up; a system in which ONLY aristocratic white males had any representation at all, as they enslaved any, and later on black folk alone, while engaging in ethnic cleansing. Your "MLK" has been whitewashed for eurocentric consumption.

What kind of uneducated ignorant shit is this???

Take a civics class fool

The constitution can be changed, every amendment including the first can be repealed - it's not that complicated.
So why shouldn't it?

We don't give a fuck about the constitution, our last constitutional war was WWII.

NPR and PBS, at a minimum, need to have their funding from taxpayers ceased. These entities generate millions from donations. Taking taxpayer money for Left Wing propaganda is an insult.

They give the most even handed reporting of the news, with the least disrespect of the President, of any of the major news outlets. They have a left leaning slant in the issues they choose to cover, but I have never heard a single one of them foaming at the mouth about the President or Republicans, not even their guests.
You would be shooting the wrong folks here.

I would suggest that conservatives have never actually heard NPR or PBS and merely repeat the HATE and LIES that limbaugh et al feed them

Never would I have imagined that we would break up into two completely separate news & informational universes like this.

Never would I have imagined that anyone would be so stupid and uneducated to think that "two parallel universes" exist to begin with.

You literally must believe that reality began the day your favorite propaganda news network, aimed for those of a 6th grade education was aired - reading even a single book from a liberal, conservative, or any other POV would burst 99% of the imaginary universe you inhabit.

I once had the honor of speaking with a local judge (who I shared an interest in Steven Pinker books with), and she strongly implied that it's not really any "open secret" to pretty much anyone of any actual learning that the media is really just a substitute for reading books.

They come up with stories and "facts" that simply run parallel to reality, absolutely ignoring readily-available information.

Not sure how you're supposed to keep a republic together when it operates under separate realities.
.

The only two separate "realties' are those who read books, whether historical, scientific, cultural, or otherwise - and those who were naïve and uneducated enough to believe anything on their favorite media network was ever relevant to anyone who's education and reading level didn't stop at 6th grade.

I've met morons like you who are so simplistic in your thinking that you don't even know basics, such as the difference between a "scientific theory" or a "conspiracy theory", or a philosophical theory (such as Utilitarianism per Betham and Mill) and seem apparently ignorant or dishonest of the reality that not all conspiracy theories are "bad", or "wrong", or haven't turned out to be true.

As wonderful example, most of the misinformation on TV about "global warming" isn't "the science" itself, it's rather political philosophy, the likes of Bentham or Mill's Utilitarianism, or the Secular Humanist religion, whose beliefs in "caring for the earth", have been around since the 1800s and before any recent data on Global Warming ever existed.

What's being done in the popular media is simply using scientific data to support pre-supposed philosophical beliefs, such as a lack of limitations on "change", "progress", and the like, or other idiotic theories, such as proposed taxations or whatnot, which are held or presupposed on the basis of faith, not on any proven or testable effectiveness.

The reality is that science has demonstrated natural causes in relation to global warming, but in spite of this, the deniers and alarmists refuse to accept this on the basis of their faith-based beliefs or philosophies, preferring instead to either attack science, or peddle misinformation about what science is or how it works, or attack scientists who don't agree with their religion as being part of a "capitalist" conspiracy theory, or something else.

I see you are spreading misinformation to fool people into following YOUR agenda.


"the reason you should believe ME is because everyone else is spreading lies! I am the ONLY ONE telling the truth!....."

Lately the Democratic party and "left" wing media has been used for the purposes of rabble rousing, inciting violence, and perpetuating misinformation to the uneducated Demographic.

This could give as a good case for repealing the First Amendment, or using the state's power to shut down Democratic media, including social media which incites violence and anarchy.

In practice, I don't think it would be too easy to do - the government could simply shut down TV and radio such as the Colbert Report, NPR, as well as social media outlets such as YouTube channels which incite violence, hatred, and immorality in the lowest common denominator.

No, that is a slippery slope we should not go down. I would propose an alert to show up on the screen or be stated on radio that says "The speaker is currently stating opinion or speculation". Granted this could get annoying on CNN since the alert would never turn off.

Just how stupid do you think the American viewing public is? We don't need an alert--we just need both sides of the story, the facts laid out without a team of analysts rushing in to spend ten minutes discussing a two minute news item. The most ironic thing is that since we have had 24/7 News Networks, we are receiving less and less real news. They read the articles from AP and the Times, if it interests them. They all pick the same top stories. And it's mostly commercials, not even news. How many journalists are breaking real news stories on CNN and Fox? Nada.

Even PBS does that analyst bit now. That is what the Sunday shows are for. Although I always liked Friday evenings with five minutes of Brooks and Dunn. (Dunn? I think it was Dunn--I've been tv free for a year now). .

We don't really want you to have information, we'd like to advise you as to what your perception of reality should be. This is best handled by having the entire platform overseen by half a dozen multinational corporations.
