I was going to post this in my Stay Informed thread, but it seems like it is a terrific, multi-part documentary that is not to be missed. I also thought about putting it into the philosophy section, or the history section, for it is more, really about the history, and evolution of how media has...

sparky This is a good thread, one I think you would enjoy. . .
To be fair, this is a lot of information, with a lot of moving parts. The information in, and the history behind it, started a long time ago. Hell, some of the information that badger2 posts, just wears me out, when I dig deep into it.
Some of the stuff I post, is really depressing, to folks that absolutely love Trump, because it makes them wonder, what the hell was he doing? Did he know, or was he not paying attention to what is going on?
You have to have a lot of education to understand a lot of the concepts, and understand, that this is not a left/right issue. The folks that can be corrupted are anyone, and the folks that are concerned with this issue, are, likewise, anyone.
I mean, there is this post I have made around the forum which a lot of hard core Trump fans are either compelled to ignore, or do some serious mental gymnastic to accept.
That interview that Theo Von did with RFKjr., which either exposes Trump's
"corruption," or his complicity with the Deep State for favors from BIG Pharma. . that has necessarily put us all at risk, and taken economic advantage of the nation. For some of us, that disqualifies him for another term. A lot of people don't like to read that. It also, necessarily makes me wonder, why the left doesn't use that information against him. . .
No one wants to know about the corruption of our establishment, it is too uncomfortable. If you are actually IN the media establishment, it takes a lot of bravery to report on this, especially if it is on institutions, political parties, people, etc. and things you admire. I have often been confronted with this conundrum myself. If I find something out about someone or something I don't like or don't want to be true? But if the information comes from a reasonably reliable source? Is it not contingent upon my integrity and critical the the health of our republic, to share it far and wide, regardless of my political agenda?
