This fact angers me. Instead of focusing on what's important, the anti-American media and the anti-American DemocRats instead focuses on the sham impeachment. Imagine: had we have much more advanced warning to the public at large for the potential outbreak, we would have much more support for early counter-measures like shutting down travel to China and have much more time to prepare supply and money stockpiles at home and for our small business.

In addition to China, I am also blaming the Democrats and their media allies for this crisis we are experiencing. May they suffer greatly for their crimes.

It's not anti-American. It's anti-common sense, anti-Western Civilization, anti-liberty, anti-individualism. But they are also pro something - so they either throw the rocks at you, or they help building the catapults that will. That's in essence socialism, government power, aristocracy as a whole.

Socialism is nothing but a big "I know better than you what to do with YOUR resources and liberties and I have NO restraints from taking them - actually it makes me even feel good."

Being a "journalist" (=ideological propagandist) is essentially equal to being a noble, an aristocrat who can shape the views of the masses and/or rail them up. It is as close to being in power as it gets without being part of the government. They are the channels, invokers of an ideology that runs rampant in society and politics. They harness the powers of the collective flow of thoughts - which btw is fueled by the Marxist leaning education systems. You can see that hive mind spilling out on social media as well.

So in case someone try to frame these mainstream media as a product of a (relatively) free market - they really are not. They are tapping into something that exists because governments create it - and that for many decades.
