Possibly the most important thing: Dems need to get better at the propaganda wars.

22. Well, the biggest thing we need is a media platform.

The myth of a liberal press, is so 1970's.

The media took a sharp turn right in the 1980's.

In the 90's they got the biggest noise box with faux and a legion of ditto heads felt empowered. Joy

Since the 2000's, the media has become more right lean and less about facts and more about ratings.

This trend continued on the radio and in print. By 2010, this crap finally invaded the internet and social media.

Now online you can find left leaning progressive stuff. But even online this crazy right wing mania is trying to take it over.

Yes, there are a few people that are kind of trying to cut through all this toxic waste we call news. But they are just a few and big money controls everything. So they can't talk or risk being fired or much worse, if we continue down this very dark path.

I don't know how we do this but it needs to be done.

No one is challenging orange man on anything! No press conferences. The press doesn't even have access. All these conflicts of interests. His crazy tweeting. His lack of protocol. The dude is making a mockery of everything! And yet no one gives a fuck!

Turn on the tv news or go online to what used to be called credible news outlets. Oh there will be stuff about the shootings. (BTW I don't mean this in a bad way but I have become numb to all this violence. My heart and prayers do go out to those effected. And I am really getting sick of having to do that. Its shouldn't be normal.)

Crap got way off topic. Oh yeah the news. If that shooter would have been a white non-muslim orange man supporter, the news would barley make the front page.

The media acts like all is cool with orange man's behavior. Just imagine if Obama acted like orange man. You think the press would just accept it? No, they would be complaining up and down every air wave. orange man do it, nothing.

We need some type of platform to combat all that garbage.
