Fox News is a pack of Spinners.
It's time they had their come to Jesús Cristo (not the fake White Jesus.)
You should know up front, reading this isn’t going to make you feel good. It’s going to rock you to the core because, I, unlike legacy media, am ruthless in my authorship. And f*ck Trump, that dude is a product of generations of idiots who consume victim mentality and shit out blame.
I’m going to own my part in this mess. I voted for Trump two times. Not once, but twice. Why did I do that? I bought the spin. I have my Masters in Psychology, and I still got systematically indoctrinated into the cult. How? I was one of those, “I don’t vote or pay attention to politics” people. My paycheck to paycheck income afforded me a rock’n roll lifestyle, plus I didn’t have kids or get married—I highly recommend this route in life if you like being nimble. So, I only kinda paid attention to reels—soundbites that influenced me to make the wrong decision. Truth slaps when people listen. I wasn’t listening.
So ya, “Hi”, I’m a dumb ass. But, guess what, I left the red. Fuck’em. Republicans are idiots. They can’t govern. They don’t know their ass from their elbow. They hate women and are race bating murders. I share all this to say, together we can carve out a moral middle for the purple people to reside. We flip states by flip’n the spin. I’m proof that some of us want out of the domestic abuse that the republicans utilize to control their base.
Conservative Media is a pack of Spinners
I grew up in Bible school, so I was groomed to do what I was told. Then somewhere in my 30’s the trend of white women becoming obsessed with murder or cult documentaries hit. I have exactly zero data on this, but I think the more suppressed people are the more they seek moral depravity, hide it, and present like they are pious. In psych terms, narcissists are pathological liars with no core self so they feast off of eliciting emotions from others.
Control the mob, and you direct the masses.
What forces in our society can do that?
Church
The media
Porn—propaganda porn.
Guess who can be controlled by those forces? Anyone—even me and I’m logical. Billionaires are not logical. They don’t have to be. So, most of them are cannibals feasting on the flesh of the working class and chasing it with the narrative, “I’m self made.” Bull-shit. However, what they do have control over is flow of information. Hence the alliance with Christian Nationalism.
Christians are liars. “We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory…” But, bitch-ass holier than thou mega-church rock-concert and coffee in the lobby hipster Christians treat the Bible like it’s mad-libs. They spin it. I know, my dad was a pastor. And in no way a holy man. Cuz guess what, true Christianity does not make you exit through the gift shop and buy church merch. Also, we really should be taxing churches. Johnson City, Tennessee has 700 churches and I bet most of them are “shell companies”. Point being, step one of priming someone to believe anything is a perverted religion.
Step two—make real life entertainment so people can’t tell the difference. I used to live on Social Media. At any given time my phone would have up to 5k selfies or pictures of coffee. I turned my life into a commodity to be consumed. Plus voyeurism was no longer taboo, Facebook made it the norm. I partook of the body of media and drank the blood of other’s tragedies wrapped up as Netflix documentaries.
Step 3—bludgeon your desires with porn. Perversion is not relegated to sex. Anyone who sells their soul for short term pleasure is a porn addict—food porn, sports porn, vanity porn, and so on. America is children of the porn. Once we are hooked, we are cooked.
So, I write today with one thought in mind—the moral middle. This is where discourse, the Socratic Method, and debate live. The middle is void of spin. The middle is rational and thicc with ethics. I write today, because after 5 million people poured into the streets across the nation, we are going to wake up to another deluge of lies. Kkk-arloine will lie to us, so will Fox, and you better believe Republicans are cooking up red-herrings.
The thing is, about 48% of America is still feasting on these lies and shitting out wanting to “own the libs”. Racism didn’t go away because we protested—Trump is still in office and a father is still “not able to be retrieved” from Hell-Salvador. Shit is still REALLY BAD.
So, I’m putting you in charge of stopping the spin. By the name of Truth we shall cast out the corruption and victim mentality. We shall be washed by logic and baptized with a blue wave of democracy. Shut down the cults that call themselves churches. What good are they if hate is what they preach? Turn off the TV. Be set free from twisted programing. Release yourself from porn addiction of any kind so that you can rejoin human-kind and be kind.
Today was good. I’m proud of the protesters. But tomorrow and every day after that, we will have to confront the spinners with the truth and remind ourselves, “Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose.” Our lives are on loan from the federal government, let’s make each breath count.
“War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.”
― George Orwell, 1984
I appreciate this. Thank you for breaking the cult and joining us in the sane, pragmatic, middle.
