How Propaganda Works

 

The truth is drowned out under a tsunami of Kardashian asses and Trump Tweets. Tens of billions of dollars in profits are reaped by corporate media each year.

Outlets like this one cannot afford to compete, and since we have no ads selling you garbage, we are at a distinct disadvantage.

All we have is… Y-O-U.

If you come across an article packed with devastating facts and impeccable sourcing it is up to YOU to share it and encourage others to do so. Or else it’s just a tree falling in the forest. YOU are the only wild card that can intervene on behalf of the truth. It is much more profitable to lie.

The professional liar class largely doesn’t even accept that’s what they do. They tell lots of truths, unimportant ones. The important revelations, those that challenge the imperial dogma, mysteriously never see broadcast. They are excised in the Byzantine editorial processes.

It’s up to you now. Remember to LIKE and SHARE. That is the only way censored news is going to penetrate the cacophony.

PUBLIC Internet?

 

EPB, realized that smart-grid energy infrastructure could also provide consumers super-fast Internet speeds at competitive prices. A few years ago, those officials decided to act on that revelation…

The result is a system that now provides the nation’s fastest broadband speeds at prices often cheaper than the private competition.

How Tennessee could save America’s Internet

 

Let me add that “smart-grid” means unprecedented surveillance of your home energy use — in real time — with obvious implications for abuse and totalitarian eavesdropping. We need protection from government monitoring of our homes. So I’m a bit on the fence over this specific implementation.
