Mistrust in MSM Rising and Class Warfare

Although clicks and viewership of right-wing Murdoch owned Fox News is dwindling for the obvious reasons, (MAGA crowd) mistrust in mainstream media is rising, too; the latest US poll reveals over 70% of the population believe these corporate news organizations are simply spouting Fake News. A cursory examination of the last fours years particularly will give us a few reasons as to why this mistrust is spreading through the country.

Over the four years of the Trump regime, one could not switch on their phones and laptops without hearing about Trump colluding with Vladimir Putin to win the 2016 presidential election. This was democratic elites and mainstream media coalescing to invalidate Trump's win. Russia-gate was a propaganda grift on the American people. Once the much-awaited Mueller Report came out, it had zero evidence of collusion between the Trump team and Russia interfering in the election. Although the investigation did uncover criminal acts from a few bad actors before and during the campaign, Russian influence and Trump's collusion was never found. Again, the Mueller investigation discovered zero evidence. However, this hasn't stopped certain mouthpieces in the DNC and the mainstream media from continuing the grift.

The mainstream media has certainly calmed down since the Mueller Report, but Russia seemingly always slithers into the news again, to pour more gas on the lie. This propaganda has further divided the country between the so-called Right and Left.

Fox News, the biggest news organization in the country, has also propagated their fair share of fake news that has widened the divide between the American people. In the latest presidential election, they pushed the lie that the election was fraudulent, creating the Stop the Steal movement which ended in an “insurrection” at the Capitol Building that considering America is surveillance and police state, this violent attack, breaching the halls of US the government, should never have happened.

I would have to lay the blame mostly on the mainstream media, president Trump and his loyal lackeys in the GOP.

Taking this all under consideration, something truly extraordinary occurred on the New York Stock Exchange. A band of people belonging to a sub-Reddit group bought shares in a bricks and mortar retail company, Game Stop, pushing the stock prices up, when a major hedge company shorted the business, betting on its failure, causing the hedge fund company to almost go bankrupt. I don't need to go into more specifics about this event (this news is worldwide), but what it has revealed is a deeply divided country between the very rich and everyone else. While these billionaires can play their market games and become extremely wealthy, when the little guy plays the same game against them, these elites cry-a- river and shout foul.

What I'm attempting to propose, is the divide between people across the US is not Right or Left, but between the rich and everyone else. This latest event on Wall Street transparently points this fact out. We shouldn't be fighting amongst ourselves over “cultural” issues but forging a government for the people.

This is class warfare, not a political one.

While America's people are starving and dying of COVID 19 more so than any other country in the world, while business has closed. Unemployment goes out the roof, the rich have gotten richer, and the poor have fallen even further into poverty. This is a broken economic system. This is an unworkable system that requires profound change.

So it is transparently clear why 70% of the people mistrust mainstream media. These elitist corporations have been bombarding us with non-stop lies, pushing us to fight between ourselves, rather than focus on the real problem: the mainstream media, the government as a whole, military, corporations and their coalescence as one: so named the Military-Industrial Complex.
