A rational, logical explanation for how things really are and how they got to be that way; the stuff most people are afraid to say out loud ...

The assault on reality ...
There are many things that make me dislike the media and Democrats.
Yet there’s one thing they do that rises above all the rest. They are trying to reshape reality. It’s getting worse all the time. It’s also tearing the country apart.
Worst of all, I believe it’s intentional. I believe they know full well that they are manipulating what the public sees or hears to present a false narrative. And I think they are doing so gleefully, celebrating among themselves, that they are so much smarter than the general public.
To them, we’re a pack of ignorant rubes. Putting stuff over on us is just too easy. They honestly believe we’re all too stupid to see through what they are doing to us.
They told us George Floyd was a innocent black man murdered by the police. He wasn’t innocent and he wasn’t murdered by the police: he had a long rap sheet and died from a lethal dose of fentanyl. Did what the police do aggravate his condition? Yes, but the reason he kept saying he couldn’t breathe was because that’s one of the results from the lethal dose of fentanyl he had ingested beforehand. George Floyd was no saint, no upright pillar of the community, and he was resisting arrest.
All the riots that then happened – all the “protests” over “racial injustice,” and “police brutality” that allegedly killed Floyd – ignored all of the above. The looting, burning, assaults on police, and murders of innocent people by the “peaceful protestors,” as they were called by the media, that lasted for months had absolutely no basis in fact.
But you wouldn’t know it based on media coverage. If you only watched the major networks like ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN, or relied on MSNBC, CNN, Facebook, Huffington Post, the NYT, LA Times, or Washington Post, you knew little about the chaos and destruction. And saw even less.
If you watched Fox or various online news outlets, you witnessed night after night of cities on fire, police and emergency vehicles torched, businesses being looted and then burned to the ground, and bystanders assaulted and beaten. All while “peaceful protestors” openly celebrated. You also noticed black-clad Antifa types smashing storefronts and throwing firebombs.
Still, all you heard on the local and national news was about “mostly peaceful protests,” and the Black Lives Matter movement focused on ending racial injustice, especially by police.
The reality is that BLM is a Marxist organization that has almost
nothing to do with protecting or enhancing the lives of blacks. It’s a money-making venture that’s convinced
corporations to give it millions as blood tribute. It’s also based on a lie:
that blacks in America are victims of systemic racism and black men, like
Floyd, are targeted and killed by racist police all the time.
That’s complete bullshit, and the BLM people know it. Yet the media keep repeating that nonsense, despite stats that definitively prove otherwise. It’s been very effective, nonetheless. In a recent survey, people were asked how many unarmed black men were killed by police on average each year. Most responded either in the hundreds or thousands.
From official FBI stats: the actual number of unarmed blacks killed by police in 2019 was 19, not hundreds, much less thousands. To put this in perspective, it’s less than the number of blacks killed by other blacks in a couple of weekends in Chicago alone, but blacks killing other blacks doesn’t interest Democrats or the media enough to cover. It should, but it doesn’t.
In late May 2019, Washington, DC, experienced riots, again supposedly over the death by police of Floyd and other blacks, that included setting a historic Episcopal Church right across from the White House on fire. Why was the church set on fire? That question was never answered.
The media chose instead to focus on Trump’s ill-advised photo op in front of the church on June 1 while holding a Bible, and that Episcopal officials didn’t approve of Trump being there. They made a big deal about how Secret Service agents moved bottle-throwing “peaceful” protestors away from the area to protect Trump and others with him; they erroneously reported, and of course never retracted, that those agents used tear gas on the protestors.
On January 6 of this year, a bunch of different protestors streamed into the Capitol, a scene captured by the cellphones and video cameras of plants working for CNN, BLM and others in the crowd. Ostensibly, it was a protest against the certification of the 2020 Presidential election. One Capitol police officer shot through a broken pane of glass for some unknown reason and killed an unarmed female protestor. A couple of people had heart attacks and died, including one of the police there.
The media and Democrats made up a story that the fallen police officer had been bludgeoned to death with a fire extinguisher by one of the protestors. That wasn’t true – he was never hit and he died of a heart attack. Several Democrat members of Congress claimed they feared for their lives because they thought protestors were out to kill them. In fact, protestors were not armed, and they were more interested in finding Mike Pence than bothering Democrats.
AOC claimed she was terrified by protestors running down her hallway trying all the doors. Except protestors were never in the building AOC was in. Other members of the Squad said they had to hide yet posted clips of themselves quaking in fear for their lives.
Nancy Pelosi claimed that it was an armed insurrection incited by Trump supporters and white supremacists. All of which has since been proven false. There’s no evidence Trump incited the protesters to attack the Capitol, that white supremacists had anything to do with it, that protestors had any firearms, much less any intent to use them if they did, so everything she said is a lie. Yet the media and Democrats keep repeating all this crap. Democrats in the House also used these fabrications to impeach Trump long after he was no longer President.
Democrats and the media have used this one stupid event to justify ringing the White House with fence and razor wire, and thousands of National Guard troops, to prevent white supremacists from attacking the Capitol once again and possibly overthrowing the government. The FBI has promised to crack down on white extremist groups and militias.
The reality is that what Democrats and the media continue to call an armed insurrection to overthrow the government didn’t really happen as they’ve described. There are no credible sources reporting that white supremacists or militias ever planned, or are now planning, to attack the Capitol.
And instead of claims that protesters violently stormed the Senate and House chambers that day, there’s new footage that’s emerged showing Capitol police calmly welcoming some of the protestors in. There’s also audio and video showing that some of the “protestors” that day urging others to break down doors were actually embedded by CNN and BLM.
It's all bad theater.
Recently, a nutjob in Georgia shot up several massage parlors because he was ashamed he had visited them for sex, and in his warped view by shooting them up it would end his desire for getting sex from them. Now, just to review the facts: nutjob shoots up various massage parlors he had visited for sex before; one non-Asian male and several Asian female workers are killed.
When captured, the nutjob confesses and insists to police it had nothing to do with race; he had nothing against Asians, just sex workers. The police accept that.
Almost immediately the media whip the story as proof that Asians are being persecuted and assaulted by whites in increasing numbers. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden fly to Georgia to comfort the families of the slain workers and go on record abhorring violence again Asians.
One of the sons of a slain female worker almost immediately gets interviewed by a network news crew to say how much his mother meant to him and how she always looked out for him. (A GoFundMe page started for him already has received over $3 million.)
As if scripted in advance, Asians march to protest discrimination and violence against Asians. Asians claim they are routinely assaulted, and their complaints are ignored. The media imply it’s white supremacists at fault for the upswing in violence against Asians.
But, once again, what the media and leading Democrats are saying just isn’t true.
There has been a surge in violence against Asians, especially in urban areas. But it’s not by whites; it’s by blacks. Remember that blacks make up less than 13% of the population. Whites make up about 62%. But about 28% of crimes against Asians are by blacks; about 24% are by whites. To make the math easier, Asians are almost 4.8 times more likely to be victims of crime perpetrated by blacks than by whites.
Do we hear much about that? Why no. That’s because it makes the attacks on Asians more of a black issue, the same way blacks are victims of other blacks almost 71% of the time.
Yet if you watch the news, you’d think whites are doing all the crimes against Asians. Notice that when it’s a white guy assaulting an Asian the video of it makes the nightly news. But when it’s a black guy who does it, well that’s not nearly as newsworthy; local news may run that video, but usually only to see if anyone can help identify the suspect.
Finally, look at what’s happening at our southern border.
Only recently have the media been forced to show what’s going on, mainly because a Democrat Rep. in Texas leaked photos. If he hadn’t done that, the media would have still promoted the Biden administration’s claim that there’s no crisis there.
And if there were no photos, who would be any wiser? That’s their plan.
