Sir: As someone who “almost” graduated with a BA in History from the University of Windsor, and a lifelong student of history, it pains me to see our civilization being led like lambs to the proverbial slaughter at the hands of the mainstream media and their political puppet masters in Ottawa and Washington.
I’ve never been cavalier about watching television, preferring to read books rather than mindlessly ingesting hours of blah from the tube. When the whole world collectively turned their backs on a certain “NY Billionaire” running for U.S. president, I laughed like the rest of us, but took notice as well.
Some three years on now and I can see the parallels between our modern day press and what was going on in Germany in the 1930s; not because of results of an election but due to the reaction to the election.
Here in Canada, we see the “free press” being bought and paid for by special interests outside of the country; eager to lead us into a globalist holding pen where no one has free speech or the right to express their point of view.
Political correctness and common sense civility are no longer the hallmarks of discourse; I have lost friends and loved ones due to predictive programming from the boob tube and no one can see it?
I suppose fear is the new hallmark of our proud country, where even saying hello to someone in the wrong context can land you in jail, and more and more people stay home and out of the public just to keep their jobs and their sanity while a small handful of elites and “news” editors laugh at us.
Turn off the television before it’s too late folks, go for a walk and talk to someone on the street; you may be surprised you are not alone in your beliefs or thoughts after all.
