Thoughts on cable and mainstream media.
I don't even call it news any more.

We are all being prepped and manipulated into very tight bounds on
what is acceptable thought and behavior...

... by people who neither think nor act within those bounds.

It's double standardism on steroids. For some reason I have always had
an extremely strong antipathy to double standards and being told how
to behave and what's good by people who do not know how to behave
themselves and have no idea what is good for anyone.

I'm a liberal leftie and proud of it, and I'll think my own thoughts and act
as I see fit; and if that's out of anger and grief for what is happening to
ninety percent of my fellow Americans and the world's population due
to the bad thinking and behavior of sociopathic corporatists and cable
and media hatetalk personalities, then so be it. Sometimes anger is the
ONLY appropriate response to insanity and double standards, especially
if it leads to action that will repair and humanize the world.
