Big Media was responsible for the Capitol riot

Not solely, but in a massive way. Hear me out, I think you'll agree.
There can be arguments all day about who is responsible for the events at the Capitol.
We just saw the highest level of court in America judge a sitting President on the matter.
If he wasn't responsible, who was?
Agent provocateurs, government operations, and social programming aside (although also all involved, yet that's discussion for another day)
Maybe it's time we acknowledge another evil at work behind the cascade of dominoes leading us to this point.
-----------------------------------------------------------
It's the story of the two boys looking at a ball from opposite sides, and one sees the side painted white while the other sees it black.
Just as their disagreement soon devolves to anger and insult, so too does the blind mind of mankind
quickly snap to destroying itself with pointless polarizing ideology.
You end up with a whirlpool of repeating statements, regurgitated opinions and looping arguments
Until you have a frustrated and amplified echo of the original problem.
Except, in this case, one of the boys isn't allowed to announce the color on his side of the ball.
That's us.

This is a huge cause of these riots, this is a major factor of recent social unrest all across the board, actually.
Media creating a vacuum of information flow and suppressing the TRUE voice of the people.

Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Google and YouTube, among many others...
These behemoth platforms ban, block and close accounts and communities based solely on the excuse of:
"you've violated our terms of service", or "you've gone against community guidelines", etc.
Erasure and burial of information, records and documents. Pervasive search filtering and video purgings across all platforms.
Blanket bans, vague or zero-explanation account suspensions... these are unnacceptable.
In an evolving digital age, this is simply insufficient to the extent that it approaches criminality.

Don't get me wrong here, suppression of hate, spam and trolling is absolutely necessary, yet... so is doing it the right way.
Even our beloved ATS has rules regarding what we can and cannot do or say here. Fair is fair.
My household also has rules to keep things sane and respectful.
Don't harass someone I protect under my roof and expect to leave smiling.
Yet, just as our rights to protection from harassment and freedom of expression are necessary, to address everyone's rights and needs-
So too must our sense and understanding of how far we can accept the reaches of these controls, show a level of sophistication and reason.

Yet there is clear violation of free speech at present, running individual rights into the ground under a mountain of beaurocracy and legalese.
Suppression of opinions and ideas which have the right to be voiced, instead force-feeding us cherry-picked propaganda fuel.
Such corrupt tactics have no place in a world and age that claims to fight for the rights of free speech and expressive liberty.
--------------------------------------------
Manipulation of our collective communication technologies, especially social media, is destroying our ability to malleate and react realistically to social traumas.
We can't share the whole story so we can't react according to the closest version of truth, only one side of it. Their side.
Of course, the only voice control freaks want to hear is their own, especially when they aren't the ones speaking.

This sort of rigidity is always dangerous when it comes to social freedoms because it doesn't allow the depressurization that comes with variability.
It doesn't allow the true voice of the social mind and human experience to express itself or exist in benefit of itself.
Enclosed pressure will always seek an outlet of weakness to force itself through. People do much the same when pressed en masse.
What does a firecracker do when detonated in a closed hand? The open palm is barely phased while the tight hold loses fingers.

By allowing only one narrative, the frustrated unspoken are driven to more extreme methods of expression.
Back an animal into a corner and it will have no choice but to lash out tooth and claw. This is nature.
Such is true for all these riots as well. It isn't the people's wanted decision, it's their manipulated reaction.
---------------------------------------------------
Our media platforms create such friction by disallowing free speech in the name of protection and suppression of violence and hate.
They bury controversial and sensitive topics under mountains of garbage and nonsense if they don't erase their sources first.
Seriously, just try Googling anything you know to be conspiracy, and then try it on DuckDuckGo and see how much they hide from you.
Watch a 5 hour documentary on 9/11 and just try to find any of the used clips or interviews on YouTube/Google. They're almost all gone.

The literal lies being shoveled into our communities and perceptions of the world and each other, corruption of our views and values...
None of us really agree with the direction we're heading in regarding the controlling group's overregulation and overreach.
Yet expressing interest in strange or controversial topics, disagreeing or questioning the official narratives of things often leads to ostracization and ridicule.
So instead we go to communities such as ATS, where we can search for the answers we aren't otherwise allowed to have, and are labelled "conspiracy theorists".
(But don't forget that theory relies on tested and verified data, which is actually validating our community... Otherwise we'd be called conspiracy hypothesists!)

Segregation is also a form of social censorship, and you can easily look to Hitler, Stalin or Mao for examples of why one would be so invested
in the silencing of sensitive subjects and splitting up of groups discussing controversial topics-
that is, ideas running opposite those of the ruling elite or people collaborating to discover their illegal or wrongful doings.

If such issues as voter fraud, QAnon, 9/11 and the like were TRULY discussed on a mass level, openly and honestly with full access to information and detail...
There would be no question as to the legitimacy of the official stories and explanations behind them, if they were in fact true.
Shutting these voices off doesn't eliminate the angst behind them in the first place, it forces a push for outlet.

Their suppression of the discussions we care deeply about
The way they shut down and disallow ideas alternative to theirs
Destruction and sabotage of legitimate vectors of free and fair conversation
Killing off of the human soul and experience in the name of profit and control
------------------------------------
We know the damage this vacuum is causing.
Now
Imagine how difficult it would become to remove the grip of tyrannical censorship once it passes the point you imagine reversible.
Imagine how difficult it will be to know what society truly thinks and feels once posts such as this become illegal and all you hear is them.
For now we remain unwilling witnesses to the tactics and tricks of companies, organizations and policies involved in the New World censorship club.

This has built a pressure amongst tens of millions of people, and once again the pot boiled over and exploded given a small outlet of release.
And it doubtlessly will again. For as long as you create friction, you will feel heat.

One thing is for sure, President should never be responsible for the actions of them idiots that stormed that building.

Yeah and guns kill people and McDonald’s make people fat.

Take responsibility for your own actions.

You and I know that's not the case, but the woketard army really does think in those terms. If someone eats junk food constantly and gains 300 pounds, it's McDonalds' fault. The overweight person is a victim.
If someone in the projects robs and kills someone, it's society's fault. The killer is a victim.
Personal responsibility? What's that?

Republicans Claim January 6th Rioters Were Middle Schoolers on Field Trip😂

Speaking to reporters, Senator Ron Johnson, of Wisconsin, said that, after reviewing footage of the riot, “It’s plain to see that this was just a bunch of middle-school kids who got a little rowdy.”

Talk about opposite sides of polarity. We've gone from many in Congress and leftard media hyenas saying "Insurrection" domestic terrorists, FBI manhunts, worse than any other time in US history to worse than 9/11...and now reduced to a harmless crew of middle-schoolers raising alittle hell in the DC swamp.🍺💥

This country was built on dissent and power to the people. It is our right to make Government afraid of us. Not the other way around. Government SHOULD be afraid of the people.

Those were true patriots, some disguised as patriots.... no matter, to bad we didn’t see them drag Nancy, Pence and Chuck through the streets of DC. They deserve a firing squad.

Funny that,
And there's me thinking that this Capitol riot was in fact a conspiracy, and not an all day argument planned and acted out, with all the usual patsies, and nutballs thrown in for their historic colour, garnished by a President who has low opinion of just about everybody, but himself.
Just glorify Trump all you want, but he is/was the true suppressor of truth, a slobberer of lies ad infinitum intended for only those who wanted to listen to a slobberer of lies...infinitum.

Yu's were all told by most media that Trump was a very bad choice, and yes, it ended badly, and in fact the whole Trump episode was a feck-up!

January 6th was only a big deal in the minds of politicians and Mainstream Media who already have blood on their hands from so many deaths related to the useless lockdowns and hysteria.

The vast majority (+90%) of Americans don't give a sh'it that their fellow taxpayers trespassed on the property we all pay to maintain anyway.

Only because of people like you is why it ended badly. The lies and coverup still haven't stopped , again because of people like you.

First, yes the MSM is guilty of fueling a lot of fires not just the fake insurrection.

Second, so you're saying the book burning has begun, which I believe to be true. Schools are not teaching facts, they teach feels. Follywood's crap? All indoctrination, has been since the beginning of TV, it slowly increased in "frequency".

Trump has opened eyes, most people knew already the MSM was full of it, Conan O'Brien exposed that over a decade ago when he showed local news parroting the same script.

The media...IS the enemy...but it's also who owns the media, and whose pocket the owners are in, they are all enemies. Once again, most people have known this for at least a decade, that's ten years. I saw the " octopus" and where its tentacles were in 2012. Maybe 2013. But I spent hours upon hours watching documentaries on utoob, I didn't watch kitten vids and chicklets twerking, and....

To be honest, I did so because I came across ATS and a 9/11 thread right after the Norway Spiral. But it was Cynthia McKinney in a vid I accidentally downloaded on Kazaa...that opened my eyes to a world I thought was only on a glowing screen.

That's when distrust of the MSM started for me, and when I started watching CSPAN frequently.

One more thing, I grew up when the "six o'clock news" was on almost all TVs, I wasn't allowed to talk, blink, or breathe until commercials. Looking back, I hate to say it but I came from a freaking herd of sheep.

"I hate to say it but I came from a freaking herd of sheep."


A lot of us did.

Republicans: The January 6th insurrection is unworthy of an investigation.
Also Republicans: We must examine all of the ballots in Arizona for traces of BAMBOO.

Trying to find bamboo in ballots to prove they were made in China is just stupidity piled on racism piled on ignorance piled on stupidity piled on... I cannot even begin to document the depth of it here, but I will try:

First you have to believe the election in Arizona was stolen despite no evidence of that and the election already being audited and certified.
Then you have to believe that China did it because China would somehow prefer Biden to Trump. Trump was pretty good for China’s territorial ambitions, so that’s already a stretch.
Then you have to believe that China specifically targeted Arizona as a vulnerable swing state and put an intelligence operation in place to change votes to Biden.
Then you have to believe that China somehow manufactured fake ballots and had a network of agents ready to somehow distribute them to every polling place AND (because the electronic vote count was proven to match the ballot count) also had software installed on voting machines to EXACTLY switch votes by the same amount as the paper ballots.
Then you have to believe that Chinese agents used paper made in China rather than find some in the USA and use that
Then you have to believe that they can’t make paper in China with zero bamboo content
And you also have to link bamboo and China like the Chinese are a bunch of pandas or something.
And then you have to stand up, explain this tortured chain of logic and
Then, other people have to nod and agree that it sounds smart and they should investigate.

Phew. There probably more here but I’m spent. Just legendary Dumb and Dumber level dumbassery.

Also:
"The attack on the capitol was an Antifa plot but the people who did it are true patriots and Trump gave a speech telling his crowd to attack the capitol which they did but Trump had nothing to do with it because it was all Leftists but we don't want to investigate it." Okay.

Also:
"Can you imagine what Osama bin Laden would say, if he had a say, in the 9-11 commission?"

I dont think having a tweet deleted justifies murdering a policeman and lying pipe bombs around the Capitol. Just because some newspapers don't print what a tiny ammount of people believe (and is covered extensively on Alex Jones, 4chan or similar)

The people at the riot are to ones responsible for their own actions, same as any other riot. Most people learn that by age three.

a reply to: ADAMandEVIL

The media is an easy scapegoat , Trump was responsible for the Capitol riot the media just reported his words.


The cult of (flawed) personality , you guys swallowed it hook , line and sinker.

As Chadwickus said , "Take responsibility for your own actions"

a reply to: bastion

But do they learn by age three anymore as corporal punishment all but carries the death penalty for schools now. And parents don’t do it anymore, for fear of CPS snatching their kids due to “abuse.”

A few generations worth of “children” grew up without knowing limitations nor consequences to their actions. Not at home. Not at school. Certainly not in church as that has been a dwindling thing since the 1950’s. Are kids supposed to learn morality on the school buses where they also learn their expanded vocabulary.

a reply to: ADAMandEVIL

It was Trump’s fault..

Lawyers for at least three defendants charged in connection with the violent siege tell The Associated Press that they will blame election misinformation and conspiracy theories, much of it pushed by then-President Donald Trump, for misleading their clients. The attorneys say those who spread that misinformation bear as much responsibility for the violence as do those who participated in the actual breach of the Capitol.

wtop.com...

Whilst I believe Trump fuelled the fire, no one made these guys go down there and do what they did. Just own your mistakes instead of palming blame off on anyone else but yourself.

Must be a lot of weak minded idiots out there nowadays..
