Trust in legacy media is at a clean zero for me.

I completely trust them to be actively lying to me to control me.

I was thinking about that.

Like "trans women are beautiful"

Literally the opposite is true.

Is their agenda to tell the biggest lies and then enforce belief?

Its disgusting and humiliating.

Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

In a weird way, it makes legacy media reliable.

This. I consider every article to be intentional gaslighting.

Retardation is a profession, just ask Jim Acosta.
