Kind of sums up America really. I think for a long time it is just been existing mainly to under educate under fund and impoverished people forcing them into military service
As an MO exile. You have no idea how bad MO is. Every news station runs two stories every night "96 year old woman was burgled and raped to death" and "White men go to strip club and instead of church and end up addicted to drugs". Black people are always the reason for everything and satanists are eating babies
A Republican congress critter literally just claimed the US and Iran have been at war for 47 years. They want to rewrite history to fit their narrative.
It’s disgusting how far the Republican hand reaches into all media. I’m so tired of ads and commercials that are clearly designed to be subliminal messaging. Bank, tax, and loan ads clearly portraying average citizens as being the reason they are struggling financially when it’s not true and basically nobody is like, “Oh? I was just sitting here with my money and not using it right. Silly me!” Stop pretending groceries, housing, and health insurance don’t cost a ridiculous amount now
Man, I'm watching MS Now and some how commercials pop in condemning Democratics on how they didn't stand when Trump tried to bait them with "America should protect its citizens above all" comment. Im sure its spectrum alloted ad space, but I lve seen a lot of anti democrat ads come up off and on in the past few years
I got super pissed at a commercial here in Canada for TD bank where they advertised how their financial services can help you budget and it showed these two young women who are paying a subscription service to a service called CatFlix so their cat can watch TV. The implication that people have trouble saving because they're wasting money on frivolous things, being put forward by a BANK that makes its money selling predatory financial products.
Rich Nazi pedophiles started buying up media conglomerates after Nixon destroyed the actual Republican party with Watergate and they (this is on record) decided to go for the dumbest people with soap opera BS.
Haven't checked in a while but I think there's only like 4-5 people that own or have major stakes in 90-95% of television stations across the US.
It's not like some big mystery conspiracy, it's decisions made over a small lunch between raping children.
I also live in Missouri and have seen none of this. I think it is artificially generated. But, these people are completely consumed with religious fervor and superstition, so any idiocy can be expected. It is a shame they are allowed to vote. The ultimate issue with democracy is that any vote counts and most voters are not qualified to even make grocery list.
In Connecticut one of our channels plays full on Billy Graham 'Christian' commercials. I'm a Christian and I feel it's distasteful and cheapens my faith. So disgusted.
Oh man, that sucks. Once place I worked had that...I would just change the channel, or turn off the tv. Even if there were people in there. I have heard of a better trick. If nobody is around you could go into the menu and turn on parental controls, then set a code to block that channel. (mainly fox news, but your call)
Good. They’re spending a lot of money trying to keep people calm. That informs us of their fears. When the propaganda stops it will indicate our cause is hopeless. Not until then.
This is a very good point. The Nazi regime's propaganda was at its loudest and most-Victory-Imminent in tone weeks before Hitler's defeat.
Hitler coined the 'Endsieg' campaign, and had sedition charges issued to people that expressed doubt in the regime's imminent victory.
It's also why you shouldn't think the Federation in the Starship Troopers movie won the war. That final PR campaign is practically a shot for shot remake of Endsieg.
Watch the station, and look for local advertisers. Go to those stores, browse a bit until a sales associate comes to assist, then tell "Oh, wait, I remember your store's name now, you guys were advertising on the Nasi station, yeah?" then leave.

Are they trying to make raping children socially acceptable yet?

Ask them if they are signing off for the night, cuz that shit was what was on at 2am when TV stations went off the air at night.

Call them and tell them you don’t appreciate Nazi regime propaganda on your television. Tell them there are plenty of stations to watch.

Take note of the products that advertise on the channels also, call the providers a well as the manufacturers of the products, if you're making calls.

Wow. I read this right at 10am on a Tuesday, where Chicagoland tests the tornado/air raid alert sirens. It was surreal for a second..

Right? I had to remember it’s the first Tuesday of the month
layinginbedfeelinglikeaquesarito
It genuinely made me wonder what they would do for an air raid siren, and if that went off, what would I do? I have no idea

I'd probably do what most midwesterners do when we hear that.. Press our face to the window and look outside.

Don’t waste your time on sales associates. Write letters/email/engage store managers.

Store managers have zero pull in most cases. Just another cog.
