Nope no a problem as long as the idiots keep eliminating each other.

The big KANSAS CITY COVERUP is now in effect!

Joe Biden Approves: gettr.com...

If you're a minority mass shooter at a Kansas City Chiefs parade, the media protects your identity because you're "under 18."

If you're a white fan in face paint at a Kansas City Chiefs game, the media tries to ruin your life, calling you a racist at 9 years old.

"The Media" in America will be totally transformed beginning next year. Right now, they are a bigger enemy to internal peace and prosperity than any other entity....a bigger threat than illegal immigrants, drugs, Putin or Xi.

TWO ADULTS charged with murder today in Kansas City.

TV News mentions their names, just like the online articles. But none of them are showing photos. Are they trying to protect the (alleged) murderers, for some reason?

What about mug shots from their prior arrests?

a reply to: WeMustCare

the mayor of kansas city said the governor of kansas is blowing a dog whistle by calling the shooters thugs. that there should tell you that their some kind of protected race by the woke.

yahoo reprint of fox article,

"I have respect for the governor. We get along well," Lucas told Kraske. "I disagree strongly with how he would describe that situation. I certainly do think this was criminal activity. It was lawlessness, and I think that that's troubling. But ‘thugs’ is a dog whistle in the most classic sense."
Kansas City mayor accuses governor of racial 'dog whistle' for calling Super Bowl parade shooters 'thugs'

thugs run all the color spectrum / race. the mayor showed his true colors.

This vid does a good job....

i'm sorry but at 18 in my book your only a partial adult. until you can smoke or drink a beer legally in all fifty states, your not a adult which is bullsh@@. if you can sign up and go die for your country at 17 with parents consent, then 17 should be legal age.

there should be one age set for the whole country for legal age for adulthood with all legal rights and privileges that come with it.

So the update....

A Black guy who liked to flash his gun (was arrested once for doing so) when he got into an argument there were 4 other Black men, all over 18, and they asked him what is he looking, then he said what are you all looking at, then they said no what are you looking at, and then he pulled his gun and the other guys pulled theirs and just start shooting.

Fear, hatred, pride. Always the same buttons. Just mixing up the order of importance or emphasis. Just too easy (you're making it too easy for them, hook, line and sinker). And you complain about the media? These are exactly the buttons they like pushing. Of course, we're talking right wing media now, maybe that doesn't count as "the Media" to you (if it's not Fox News).

The Manipulation of Information (Awake!—2000)

...

AS MEANS of communicating have expanded—from printing to the telephone, radio, television, and the Internet—the flow of persuasive messages has dramatically accelerated. This communications revolution has led to information overload, as people are inundated by countless messages from every quarter. Many respond to this pressure by absorbing messages more quickly and accepting them without questioning or analyzing them.

The cunning propagandist loves such shortcuts—especially those that short-circuit rational thought. Propaganda encourages this by agitating the emotions, by exploiting insecurities, by capitalizing on the ambiguity of language, and by bending rules of logic. As history bears out, such tactics can prove all too effective.

...

Lies, Lies!

...

Making Generalizations

...

Name-Calling

Playing on the Emotions

Even though feelings might be irrelevant when it comes to factual claims or the logic of an argument, they play a crucial role in persuasion. Emotional appeals are fabricated by practiced publicists, who play on feelings as skillfully as a virtuoso plays the piano.

For example, fear is an emotion that can becloud judgment. And, as in the case of envy, fear can be played upon. ...

Hatred is a strong emotion exploited by propagandists. Loaded language is particularly effective in triggering it. There seems to be a nearly endless supply of nasty words that promote and exploit hatred toward particular racial, ethnic, or religious groups.

Some propagandists play on pride. Often we can spot appeals to pride by looking for such key phrases as: “Any intelligent person knows that . . .” or, “A person with your education can’t help but see that . . .” A reverse appeal to pride plays on our fear of seeming stupid. Professionals in persuasion are well aware of that.

Slogans and Symbols

Slogans are vague statements that are typically used to express positions or goals. Because of their vagueness, they are easy to agree with.

For example, in times of national crisis or conflict, demagogues may use such slogans as “My country, right or wrong,” “Fatherland, Religion, Family,” or “Freedom or Death.” But do most people carefully analyze the real issues involved in the crisis or conflict? Or do they just accept what they are told?

In writing about World War I, Winston Churchill observed: “Only a signal is needed to transform these multitudes of peaceful peasants and workmen into the mighty hosts which will tear each other to pieces.” He further observed that when told what to do, most people responded unthinkingly.

...

Agitating the emotions, exploiting insecurities (Cartman is a real victim of it as well):

Talking about threats, there's a much more important and real threat to your minds and hearts...

“For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome* [Or “healthful; beneficial.”] teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled.* [Or “to tell them what they want to hear.”] They will turn away from listening to the truth and give attention to false stories.” (2 Timothy 4:3,4)

“So we should no longer be children, tossed about as by waves and carried here and there by every wind of teaching by means of the trickery of men, by means of cunning in deceptive schemes.” (Ephesians 4:14)

These "teachers" are everywhere, in politics, in religion, in the media, in the sciences, etc. They mold your thinking and what you take an interest in. What you perceive as a threat. You can see them on youtube, in the news, on ATS and other similar or related websites.

If you want to resist, you can start by no longer thinking about immigration or reading up on it, or the superscary globalists and socialists. If you must be mad, be mad about something else. May I suggest the following:

“We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.” (1 John 5:19)

Don't fall for the trick argument that he doesn't exist. He is the master propagandist. His favorite buttons to push are the same.
