Tomato Republic: Anatomy of a protest Pt.2

An obvious sign of a sold media is an inadequate amount of questionable funds appropriated to create forgery of the actual protest. The animated video is so blatantly false that one is bound to wonder if they rolled their eyeballs too far back into their heads, missing the spectacular unconvincing brainchild they had just birthed to copper claw with protesters in high dudgeon.
Let’s look at some tell-tale signs of a media which has been auctioned to governance.
The funhouse essentially is comprised of two kinds or sections with cattywampus principles- organised and disorganised. How can one identify them? If you happen to share a contrarian opinion, you are warranted some hot scrambled eggs on a rooftop-skillet by the end of the conversation!
The first tell-tale sign is robotic synchronisation of opinions down to the words; akin to an Acapella. Almost to the point that it would remind you of one-man-band edits on Instagram if collated like a pro. The uncanny resemblance is bound to inspire thoughts on who is singing to the tune of Big Brother (IYKYK). These are a section of organised fiddlesticks.
The second sign, is panel conversations which is as useful as a Mariachi band in a library. One would win a bet on the decibel levels escaping the stratosphere. A toad choir could be arguably more useful. Now, where are the curious and notorious scientists when we need them? The ones that investigate if humans can swim faster or slower in syrup, why a woodpecker doesn’t get a headache or what personality do rocks have ; This is their time to shine!
The third tell-tale sign is the lack of any segment checking in on the actions of governance. But, one would soon realise it’s because Big Brother (1984 ref) is the one doing the watching, “close sources” they say huh…food for thought, aye?
A lot of media on Tv appears sold these days, if i were to predict what they are going to perpetuate, i just have to look at the official governance press release the previous day ;)
That’s about for today, ciao!
