I used Info War as a title because it sounded cool and it has become a popular term. rolleyes

I think it is far more descriptive and accurate to call it a state of info domination in this modern world.
Information is about trust and assumptions to a large degree. Why such a large percentage of America decide to trust suited and collared fools who are payed for by corporations and closely monitored by our government is beyond me.
I say people in suits are the problem but I think the core problem is that we associate value and credibility too closely with appearance. It is so shallow and it deems people worthy or not within a seconds time. We attribute value to something or someone without an honest and in depth preliminary investigation.
A lot of being in politics is about putting on a show. You don't even have to understand law or know our history to get there. Just get into the right people's pockets look good in a suit, put on a hell of an act and whamO!

What happened to identifying with people because it was clear we have the same strife, the same worries and concerns? Why do we assume the benevolence of a suited figure that merely claims to have the same stakes in this? Why do you have to be rich to become president? Why does the method of campaigning have to run on borrowed favors which obligate the candidate out of romantic promises? Why does our society make it impossible for a Real All American Hero to become president? Why?

Anyway I just wanted to call attention to this info war that seems more like an info domination. This is something we all take part in, knowingly or not. Everyone is trying to sway someone into to believing something. I'm trying to sway you into thinking about how manipulation of our emotions and appeals is stearing us further from freedom.We are only hurting out selves here. If we simply wake up, turn around and see the light we can start to make positive change that WE have a say in. We are not at the kiddy table, though there are those that would like it to be as such.

Decisions of judgement should get the time they deserve.Lets get a second glance at that sheep and make sure there are'nt wolf ears under the hood.

Anyway this is just a sample of the info war. Words from both sides. right or wrong? Who's to say.

I get my news just from what I hear and see. Honestly, I don't trust any major news outlet. It's always spun and one sided, giving us misinformation. I think they only report the news to entertain, not to inform. It's sad really.

Why is The Onion not in the poll? eek

I get some news there, then compare it to news I hear elsewhere. It's usually accurate, but I like to be safe.
