"I can't wait to follow EXACTLY what Beck tells us"

By GottaLaff

Via where else? Twitter:



There's nothing like authoritarianism and blind followers to ruin a perfectly good country.

Come to think of it, isn't it rather contradictory to follow "EXACTLY" what Blech tells one to do... to avoid impending dictatorship?

Why, I do believe FreedomTCOT's thoughts and actions are being ::dun-dun-dun-n-n:: controlled! Let's not tell him.

Republicans Use Chaos as a Shock Doctrine to Create Authoritarian Rule

By GottaLaff



Your Daily Dose of BuzzFlash, via my pal, Mark Karlin:

There is a method to this madness of chaos and obstructionism that is the hallmark of modern Republicanism.

It is to do politically what Naomi Klein detailed in her economic analysis in the "Shock Doctrine"; it is to so bollix and confuse and make feel vulnerable the displaced white working and middle class that they will turn to authoritarian leadership out of fear. [...]

The corporations that now basically run the government need four things to achieve their goals of unregulated global commerce: 1) politicians in their pocket; 2) corporate/GOP media that conveys propaganda instead of truth; 3) anxious white Americans fed fear by winger media; and 4) entrenched wealth willing to invest hundreds of millions of dollars into a shadow propaganda ministry of think tanks, "analysts," government regulators on the take, etc.

Together, this merger of media, corporations (which owns the mainstream media) and government is called fascism.

This is a must-read. Please go here for the rest.
