Am I off base with this one?

I cut my cable off 5 years or so. That is when I confirmed that the tv is a complete waste of time.
The computer, iPhone, etc, is the exact opposite. Learning from the members on this site is a daily experience that mainstream media cant even come close to.
The thing is, the alternative media, is the real media. Where facts can be checked. There is no way to check any 'presented facts' from mainstream media. You are a cow locked in a stanchion. You are eating what they feed you/no questions asked.
I live near Ferguson, MO. The Michael Brown case also confirmed my convictions that the media is in business of selling a narrative, and has nothing to do with the truth or more importantly, personal security. The media portrayal of M.B. in a graduation pic, and not the security camera pic of him robbing a convenience store moments before he tried to kill a law enforcement officer with his own gun.
The alternative websites saw through these lies and proved it. If you are not on social media, in my opinion, you are just putting your head in the sand. By all means, do this if you wish. But there is a lot of bad out here, and the mm is colluding with this
obfuscation. And that is a direct threat to our security in the here and now. Let alone our future generations.
The Royal House of Saud pledged $34 billion, (Billion with a Big 'B') to sell Islam to the west in 2016. How can we imagine the ways they spend that $$ ?? The mm perhaps? Always portraying violent Muslims as victims, 24-7 while being the direct cause of these constant attacks is one way.
We are not at war with a lot of these groups. But these groups are very much at war with us. And for me, social media is the only viable way to discern the facts from 'alternative truths' the mm sells us. We are in a political war. To ignore this not an option in my opinion. www.whitegirlbleedalot.com www.jihadwatch.org These are just 2 sites for an example. I don't agree with 100% of their political views, but they post stories that the mm does not.
 
You stodgy old bastards need to get with the program. How are ya going to know when your dead beat brother in law needs a loan -- or how to cure ED with common mold that grows in your fridge.

We are in fact social media right here, and might as well own up to it. And I'm sure that my forum fellows don't mind reading my drivel, seeing my ancient pics, and hearing how my favorite SKS will shoot sub-MOA -- wait for it --
ALL DAY LONG!! :);):p jd
WAIT - you can cure ED with common mold? You heard it here first folks. Does the 4 hour thing apply with that?
 
Ah , a very little like the CB Radio days , everyone had one but nothing much important said . Well unless you were speeding !

If I could ever do it for four hours, I'd be calling everyone that I know just to brag. ( but they'd know I was lying anyhow).

I'd be happy with a 4 minute thing!!!!! 4 hours is unreal!!! If I had that.....I'd go around the entire neighborhood and show it to everyone!!!!
