getting rid of trump removes a symptom. a big root cause...decades

[NRaleighLiberal]

of right wing lie and hate TV and radio...will remain to entrap the cult with propaganda. Social networking will still be there to sow infected seeds and amplify the lies.

When Joe wins, I'd love to see some good ideas on how to deal with that.

1. Purchase Fux, OAN, Falsebook, and Twit.

Enlist some friendly billionaires for this. Then reverse the message.

The spongeheads who listen to that garbage won't even notice the difference, but we can then tell them to vote for decency and justice. Tell them it's a super-secret plan to own the libs.

2. The key is to get other media outlets to call out the bullshit

Pressure the rest of the media to call out Fox News, Facebook, Twitter, et al. for publishing lies and falsehoods.

3. Yes, when he wins. Eye on the immediate objective.

Reading the Horse Whisperer tweet in another thread sparked some thought along that line, but it can wait.

4. Yes, I'm very concerned about the RW Christian "machine" that

takes credit for elevating Trump (even at the expense of their other darling, Ted Cruz, whom they abandoned in a second for Trump). They are global and incredibly well funded, and pundits keep declaring them dead but they are not even close to it.

Remember, those organizations have their own media empire and it cannot be shamed into changing. The only hope is to deplatform it financially by making their congregants aware of how deceptive the teachings are. I think good Christians and their organizations need to take them on, and some are.

5. The only way to deal with the dealers of lies, hate and misinformation is to eliminate them.

We can't "eliminate" them by abolishing them. That would undercut freedom of speech. But they should ALL BE CLEARLY LABELED, being constantly listed as spreaders of hate, bigotry, Russian propaganda, so anyone watching them would KNOW they are watching lies and propaganda. The hate superspreaders are owned by super rich conservative POSs that want corporate control over American. They are fine with fascism, as long as THEY are at the top.

The only answer is to buy them up (hostile takeovers?), or own 51% of the shares so control can be exerted. Clear Channel, OANN, Breitbart, etc, need to be dealt with.

But apparently progressive billionaires don't feel as strongly patriotic as the Kochs, Mercers, Adelson, Murdochs, et al. I'm sure that Soros, Buffet, Bezos, Gates, and OUR good guys, could give them a run for their money, except WE would be selling the truth.

Hell, GORE had a working platform in place, but sold it.

America is all about money. That isn't a good thing, but those are the cards we have been dealt in this crappy game of capitalism gone amok.

Too bad our side doesn't have the enthusiasm for it.

6. Renistate the fairness doctrine

Reagan killed and close any loopholes and give it bigger teeth.
