Most of it, very true, but we have to do what we can do, and there is plenty. Why do you think they want control of the internet? Yea, I know, one could argue they control it now, but not like they wish.
Obviously this is a rhetorical question. But one that actually merits an answer for those who maybe are new to the political game. And the answer lies in your last statement “not like they wish”.
The left has the “end game” in sight at all times. We all know what it is. But what many fail to recognize is that they don’t view this as a sprint. That view it as a long slow walk with a few bursts of sprinting when they can get away with it. So they keep the message going to keep it relevant (walking). And then when there is an event with enough gore, they pound those drums as pound and hard as they can and get legislation passed (sprinting). Then when America is bored with the old story, they go back to talking (walking). But they are always taking. The fact we are seeing constitutional carry in many states IS a good thing. But we are only one voting cycle away from losing it. And the left knows it. So they continue to spread their message and ask for “compromise”. If they don’t get it, they cry foul and chastise those who wouldn’t play ball. If they do get the legislation passed, they applaud those that wrote the bills. And they do it through the media that is all to happy to help.
“Control the information getting to the people”. If you control the information, you control thought, control thought, you control people. It’s basic psychology. It’s been done many times throughout history. And it’s being done today. Tell a lie. Tell it often. People will believe you. Love him or hate him, it’s irrelevant to me. But look at how many times you’ve heard “Trump incited the riots (or insurrection)”.
“Weapons of war”.
“High capacity magazines”.
“Death tolls skyrocketing from this deadly virus”
And I could literally do this all day. They’re lies. But that’s irrelevant. What IS relevant, is that is the message getting to the public day in and day out.
We have to win people to our side one at a time. The media can influence literally millions a day. Our saving Grace right now is 2A organizations, the fact we haven’t had a recent MCI, and social media. But if they are actually able to truly censor social media, you have two choices...
1. Accept defeat (because another Mass Casualty Incident WILL happen).
2. Not something anyone really wants to do despite their chest pounding and knuckle dragging mentality online.
Robert started a thread a month or so ago about them shutting down pro 2A social media. If they do that, our ability to socialize and organize, is done. But they know they can’t just flip a switch and be done. It has to come in small increments or at a very opportune time. To much too fast can cause serious repercussions. You can’t stuff a whole large pizza in your mouth. You’ll puke. But if you eat it slowly, overtime, eventually, you will eat the whole pizza......End game.
