Manipulating the media from New Zealand
< < Go Back
A mass shooting in New Zealand. Awful, simply awful!
And, of course, the media is going over the top in its coverage and attempts to connect it to Donald Trump, conservatives, gun owners and white supremacists. Okay, white supremacy they have this time, the guy self described himself as a white supremacist. But, from the manifesto itself, the shooter says he’s not a conservative, not a Christian and that he identifies as an eco-fascist. He adds that he disagrees with Trump on politics and his leadership. That sounds like a typical American leftist.
It has always been a secret fact that white supremacy, like racism, does not fit the neat media narrative as belonging to Republicans, conservatives and the radical right. The leader of the Charlottesville rally was an Obama supporter! What? Yes.
And, this shooter understand this point. He is either a left wing guy ‘false flagging’ himself as right wing, or legitimately more complex than PC culture wants you to understand. In either case, unfortunately, this event is about manipulating the media.
He says it in his manifesto quote: “I chose firearms for the effect it would have on social discourse, the extra media coverage they would provide and the effect it could have on the politics of United States and thereby the political situation of the world.
“The U.S. is torn into many factions by its second amendment, along state, social, cultural and, most importantly, racial lines. With enough pressure the left wing within the United states will seek to abolish the Second Amendment, and the right wing within the U.S. will see this as an attack on their very freedom and liberty.
“This attempted abolishment of rights by the left will result in a dramatic polarization of the people in the United States and eventually a fracturing of the U.S. along cultural and racial lines.”
So does this mean that the media is responsible for mass shootings, by triggering all sorts of nut jobs? Possible, though you will get emotional blowback from the media if you even suggest such a thing. Even when the shooter says it.
Because remember what AOC & media says, this is caused by the NRA (?) and Trump (?), respectively.
Nuts!
