Fake News

As you may have noticed, I don’t post articles on the Iron Guru site too often. I wait until I’m told (from a higher power), to post something. Otherwise, the ego may take over and say something that is not divine by nature. Here is what has been brought to my attention.

I believe it was President Trump who coined the phrase “fake news”. I first remember watching the News on TV with my family during the early sixties. The news, including TV, radio, and print media, was what we looked to for what was going on around us. As far as I remember, it was a trusted source of information. Yes, there was the conservative side and the liberal side, but they weren’t at opposite ends of the spectrum as they are today. There was a lot that both sides had in common. I also noticed a sense of reverence among the newscasters. When they said something, you took it as truth, nothing was taken out of context. This is not to say there wasn’t any media control or propaganda, but for the most part, it wasn’t “fake”.

Jumping ahead to the twenty first century, news reporting as we once knew it is gone. It has since turned into a source of lies, hatred, and self serving rhetoric, that has polarized all Americans. Today’s news reporting does not try to help clarify issues, but rather to place blame on a person, a political party, or a country, forcing you to take sides. They lead you to hate and discriminate against others through lies and false accusations. In my opinion, the news media is not looking to keep America strong, nor to maintain peace throughout the world, quite the contrary.

Allow me to close by saying this. The root of all this stems from our political parties. Both major parties lie, and neither side is better than the other. Instead of working together, they are tearing us apart. If you choose to watch the news, be ready to be manipulated to satisfy their political agenda. Be ready to feel hatred towards your fellow Americans. Be ready to weaken America and allow your hard earned freedoms to be taken away. Be ready to take sides and be blinded to what our only goal should be… Peace among ALL people.

For those of you who are guided by your divine spirit, then you know this is all an illusion, and fully understand what I’ve already said. For us, we can just sit back and watch the charade. It’s actually quite amusing to watch people take what they call life so seriously.
