Topic: Alternative Media / Views are being "controlled"

This is bit of a long document to post in it's enterity, so I will just post this exprict and leave a link for you to read the rest...

Here's a quote from a recent article on the UK Guardian: "The Chinese government, employs an estimated 30,000 internet police, as part of a long-standing policy to control the web so that it can be used by businesses but not by political opponents." [Source]

Think the ideology and practice of the USA would be any different? Of course not. Just well cloaked under a veneer of free expression.

In the US, it's less a case of internet 'police' and more a question of Internet fake opposition, misdirection websites, front organizations, pseudo-activist groups and a host of professional blogging and web journalism liars, acting in concert to create an impenetrable fog.

These people are all over the Internet They are all over the 9/11 issue; all over the 'stolen' election of 2004; behind the psychological operations designed to inspire fear of earth changes, of global warming, of the Super-State and the so-called New World Order; all over the landscape of anti-corporate, anti-fascist expression on the Internet.

This army of information controllers is all over the 'free' information you are getting on the Internet. Time we opened our eyes to see them. It's not just the mainstream which is controlled. From the moment the Internet became prominent, a vast budget has been expended to control all the high-trafficked intersections on the information superhighway.

I think this article makes some very valid points - of course there is a lot of dis-information and mis-information out there.  And no doubt a lot of it has been created by various government agencies around the world.

What I am not convinced of though is how / why that author believes he is somehow exempt from all that mis / dis-info?  And why he feels his views are "right".  Of course one could claim that his site is misleading away from the so called "truth".  Although it makes some valid points, I don't feel it reads any better, or makes more sense than any other view out there.

Any thoughts?

Re: Alternative Media / Views are being "controlled"

I like the idea that the author believes that psychological operations are going on to inspire fear through the ideas of earth changes, global warming, NWO, etc.

Isn't it the things we know little about that we are fearful or afraid of?

Knowledge is the greatest weapon - and the potential for mass awareness (which may or may not happen) is what those in power should really be afraid of.
