Is it not becoming more and more obvious that everything we see in "the media" isn't just slanted, but completely fabricated from start to end? I'm using "the media" as an umbrella term to cover not just TV news/ radio news/ newspaper news...or even journalism in general, but the anything and everything used to push "the narrative" they are trying to make us think is reality. That could be twitter/facebook/etc...or even Voat/4chan...
The point being...if you lived on your own little farm without any of those things entering your mind...would you even suspect that the world is "so f-ing crazy right now man!!!!" No...
You wouldn't...
They want you to react...they don't want you to think...It's easy for them to control your reactions. It's much more difficult for them to control your thoughts. Thoughtfully act...don't mindlessly react.

Well said. They are all Agent Provocateurs whose aim is to provoke responses--it is a tool in the propaganda quiver, a distraction. They are trying to make things emotional as that obscures the real issues and goals. You are right on the money.
