So I was in another thread and someone reminded me of Ron Paul's "What if" speech and it made me think about this election.
https://youtu.be/o_WBo4sfmi4
This is video describing Ron Paul's candidacy in 2012, he was polling nearly even with Obama even though he was practically silenced by the media.
We all know by now how the DNC pretty much did the same thing to Bernie this election.
Now this leaves Hillary and Trump for the election. We see first hand the media do everything possible to smear Trump. They pretty much believe it is a lock for Hillary, then the election happens and Trump pulls it out. Now we see the media doing its best to further divide us and demonize Trump even more.
Now remember Ron Paul's "What if" speech and the talk about the defense contractors and our foreign policy never changes. Hillary was the candidate backed by the defense contractors this election. Everything he asked "what if" about Obama, we'll we still have troops in Iraq and our military is active in like 4 other countries.
Now this is just from the political standpoint. What happens if look at the media and what is going on from a social standpoint.
Most notably the BLM movement is one of the single biggest divides (outside political ideology) this country is facing. Many point to the "Hands up, don't shoot" false narrative as the original start. However, that was merely when the levee broke so to speak.
We have seen over and over again footage of African Americans getting killed by police. I personally don't recall any shootings being reported of cops killing white people yet there are more white people killed by cops every year. I know statistically African Americans are killed disproportionately by race statistics, but when controlled by violent crime rates it is roughly the same.
So we see this constant barrage of police abuse of power one sided against one particular race that drives a complete divide in our country while diverting our attention away from what our government is doing. It seems like a classic divide and conquer tactic.
How crazy am I?
