McCarthyism
2.0 in America grows with unprecedented rate as the Russian
television group RT lost
its credentials to cover the U.S. Congress on
Wednesday after the U.S. government forced it to register as a
“foreign agent.”
The
anti-Russian hysteria in the US, promoted mostly by the corporate
Democrats, the Clintonian empire, and the ruthless neocon/neoliberal
establishment as a whole, indeed
resembles the McCarthyism 'dark ages' in the country.
Many
alternative media support that behind the anti-Russian hysteria there
is a deeper cause, which is related to the establishment's efforts to
seal the mouths of the US progressive journalists that have been
banned from the mainstream media, exactly as happened during the term
of Joseph McCarthy in the 50s.
And
they are right.
The
establishment mouthpieces keep repeating that news agencies like RT
are simply key parts of Putin's propaganda machine. In reality, this
perception, continuously propagated by these mouthpieces, is part of
the anti-Russian propaganda, and its deeper target is exactly the
truly independent information.
So
what? Is Putin just a crusade of truth? One might ask. Certainly not,
is the answer. So, wouldn't be normal to suggest that he promotes
his propaganda according to his agenda and objectives? The answer to
that question is: he doesn't really have to!
All
he had to do was just to give a microphone to the excluded
progressives in order to expose the US dirty secrets, buried by the
deep state propaganda apparatus. Indeed, many of the American
journalists working for RT shape an army of progressives who have
been banned by the US corporate media. Their voices would had never
reach the American public without RT.
And
at this point, the big conclusion comes up: In reality, McCarthyism
never ended in America! Otherwise, all these progressives would had
find their way to the mainstream media a long time ago.
The
establishment used the rapid rise of the TV power during the past
decades to maintain McCarthysm through a more 'elegant' and
sophisticated way. As the big corporations took the monopoly of
information, it was easy to promote their agenda according to their
interests through a massive brainwash of the American society. Any
voices who could expose the ugly picture behind the manufactured
narratives would simply excluded from the mainstream media channels,
so that the public would never know.
Things
got worse with the rise of neoliberalism and its absolute domination
in the West from the early 70s and afterwards. The establishment not
only continued to brainwash the American society but also started to
'manufacture' its own pundits in the neoliberal schools of modern
propaganda. Progressives became a species for extinction and the
mouthpieces were painting anyone who would dare to support, say, free
education, as more or less naive, or even crazy.
McCarthysm
reached an even more advanced level, yet, inside the cultural
domination of neoliberalism, very few could notice that even existed.
That's why many today speak about a new McCarthysm while in reality
never ended.
And
now, the neoliberal hypocrites have been fully exposed because of
their double standards. Their 'free market' is full of lobbyists who
bought the politicians. Their 'globalization' is acceptable only when
their propaganda spreads globally to protect their ideology,
suppressing every different opinion.
No
wonder why they desperately seek to fulfill the next big mission of
their exposed McCarthysm: the elimination
of net neutrality.
