The
operations will multiply and become more aggressive towards 2020
Corporate
media of the ultra-conservative side made already a ridiculous
attempt to present Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as
totally unreliable. In the video, TYT hosts analyze very well the
specific strategy followed by Conservative Review TV.
The
strategy is quite simple: you create a fake video, you upload it on
social media and after being watched by thousands you admit that it
was created for satire purposes. Yet, the propaganda will be
definitely effective because only a small portion will notice that
this was satire. Most of the viewers (especially from the
conservative audience that has been heavily brainwashed for decades
to love corporate America and believe whatever comes from the Fox
apparatus) will believe whatever transmitted from the
ultra-conservative propaganda machine.
But the
corporate media of the liberal side have a very big problem right
now. It is almost impossible to start an open war with the
progressives running under the Democratic umbrella, simply because
they will probably hurt corporate Democrats even more, as the voters
(and especially the young ones) overwhelmingly support the
progressive candidates and the related agenda.
So, how
will they respond to the progressive counterattack? The following
video gives us an idea:
Notice
that the only time that the host of Face The Nation is
exercising real pressure, especially on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is
when she essentially demands from her to declare loyalty to Nancy
Pelosi. Pay attention to the face of the host when she abruptly
interrupts and asks Cortez "you don't see her [Pelosi] as the
party leader?" Her expression of a strict operator who
demands discipline from all party members tells you all you need to
know. And 'discipline' in this case is translated of course to the
obedience to current status quo of the corporate Democrats, depicted in Pelosi's leadership.
The host
persists and finally marks a small victory because eventually forces
Cortez to state that she may support Pelosi.
Corporate
media hosts and pundits are using this method quite frequently. They
are pushing aggressively the guests to comply with the desired
declaration through 'yes or no'-type questions, taking advantage of
the limited time given for these interviews. Especially a
non-experienced guest will fall into the trap easier. In this case, the
counter-strategy against the aggressive corporate media tools is
simple: stick to the agenda, don't retreat at all. Cortez should
respond straight and clear that she will not recognize Pelosi's
leadership because NY voters elected her on the Bernie Sanders
agenda. Therefore, she should say clearly that she would recognize
only someone like Bernie Sanders in the Democratic leadership.
Period.
And, of
course, the other big disappointment is that Bernie declared one more
time his loyalty to that 'Russiagate'
narrative.
This is
what we are going to see from now and until the presidential election
in 2020.
Corporate
media of the ultra-conservative side will be using more and more the
typical anti-Socialism narratives in an open war against
progressives. That's because they know that even Trump supporters
could be attracted by the progressive agenda because they would
realize that it really serves the interests of the working class.
Yet, their biggest fear is that progressives may mobilize voters that
were not participating in the political process so-far, which means
that the Republicans will lose big in 2020 by a relocated-to-the-Left
Democratic party.
Corporate
media of the liberal side will focus mainly on pushing progressives
to be 'swallowed' by the current DNC establishment in order to
destroy the political revolution of Bernie Sanders. Yet, it is
expected also to continue the McCarthyism 2.0 operation more
intensively for the purpose of smearing every progressive who will
not align with the 'business as usual' line of the corporate
Democrats.
In the
road for the crucial 2020, these operations will become more frequent
and more aggressive.
