Simon Says..

 

Legacy media pushes the narrative.

Today, with simply a touch on a plethora of devices, one can access so much media content that no one can complain that they are out of touch. “X,” Truth Social, Rumble, podcasts, Instagram, TikTok, and the list goes on and on, affording the consumer various points of view, from conspiracy theory to local issues. One thing that is obvious is that the legacy media has become an echo chamber for the democrat party and leftist ideology. Coverage from one network to the next are nearly identical, utilizing the same talking points. Yet, the legacy media continues to entrap the gullible into blindly accepting their chosen narrative. Perhaps we need to look to history and realize when we are being fed propaganda.

Trump Derangement Syndrome has morphed into an overriding paranoia for far too many. Those who suffer from this all-consuming hatred jeopardize their own sanity. Much like the “useful idiots” in the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, they will shun their family if they support MAGA and will “dox” friends and family that are Republican. Anything the Trump administration proposes are fought to the bitter end, even if American society benefits from the programs. This is absolute lunacy and any community leader with the unbridled audacity to support this type of hatred should be called out.

College students that follow their professor’s insane leftist-anti American screeds to support Hamas, Hezbollah, and their ilk, particularly the LGTBQI+ for Palestine are the poster children for all that is wrong with higher education. Students that rail against free speech, meritocracy, and capitalism, simply parrot talking points without any real understanding of their alleged “grievances.” Foreign guests, taking advantage of our educational system, rail against the very nation that affords them the opportunity.

For those that can rationally think, Donald Trump is President for every citizen of the United States, whether you support him or not. Rational thinkers accepted Joe Biden as the President and supported policies that benefited the people of this great nation. TDS sufferers cannot support anything that the Trump administration is doing, even if it benefits the nation. TDS sufferers are unhinged and lost in a fog of irrational hate. TDS sufferers need to take a step back, reassess their priorities, and get a grasp on reality.

Organized protests and criminal vandals are targeting Tesla owners, Tesla Dealerships, and Tesla charging stations, aimed at harming Elon Musk and deterring his efforts with DOGE. And the silence from democrat leaders whose rhetoric fomented this violence is deafening. The legacy media fail to condemn these criminal acts, instead equating this deranged violence with the January 6^th rioting.  What sense does that make? Both should be roundly condemned. These “virtue preening” idiots are disturbed individuals that accept a false narrative.

Legacy media condemns Musk for financially supporting Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice candidate Brad Schimel while they ignore the fact that George Soros and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker have donated to the campaign of his opponent, Susan Crawford. And there are those who blindly accept this reporting as truth, condemning Musk for trying to buy a Supreme Court seat. Cherry picked news reports of a Danish man refusing to purchase American made products, “economists” claiming that tariffs will drive inflation, and emphasizing any other information that discredits Trump. What they fail to understand is that they are not only driving public opinion in the US, but they are also casting aspersions upon this nation, worldwide. When this nation thrives, so do its’ citizens. When this nation thrives, the economy roars. When this nation thrives, everyone is lifted upon the waves of prosperity. Democrat leadership and the legacy media’s constant denigrations of the Trump administration are detrimental to our nation. We are all damaged when world opinion turns against us.

Journalism requires that reporting be factual and unbiased. Legacy media does neither. Our God gave us minds to reason and the ability to ascertain right from wrong. It is time that we use our minds to determine what is truth and follow it. It is time to determine what is lies and reject it. It is time to call out those who use their positions of authority to feed us lie upon lie. It is time for our nation to engage in rational thought rather than falling prey to irrational emotional responses. It is time for our nation to understand how destructive unrestrained hatred can be to mental well-being. It is time we relearned as a nation to love our neighbor as ourselves.

“Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.” Romans 13:10
