For quite some time now, there has been another source of news that people need to pay attention to, and this source is often referred to as alternative media. Unlike the mainstream media, this source usually spreads its news online.
So if someone wants to hear more from this source of information, they just need to have some kind of device. They will then be able to read articles and watch videos, as well as tune in to live streams.
The difference
It may be normal for someone to believe that while the mainstream media is full of lies, the alternative media is only interested in the truth. One is then real news and the other is ‘fake news’.
If this is the case, there will be no reason for them to question what this font comes from. So they will only have to be on their guard if they are paying attention to the mainstream media.
clear cut
The mainstream media would have given you drops of truth, but the alternative media will give you wave after wave of truth. They may even have moments where they wonder why anyone would pay attention to any other source.
One is going to have a direct line to the truth and these people will be disappointed by the people above. The news they are exposed to will be brought to them by people who have no connection to these people.
Step back
However, while there will be people who only pay attention to one of these news sources, there will be others who believe that one is no better (or worse) than the other. One might look full of lies, while the other might be peppered with truth.
As more is revealed by the alternative media, it is easy to jump to the conclusion that this source is radically different from the other. In a way, it will be like having a friend who lies more or less all the time and another friend who only lies at certain times.
The contrast
The problem is that if someone just compares what they are hearing through the alternative media with what is happening in the mainstream media, there will be no reason for them to notice what is happening. Much of what they hear from the alternative media will reflect what is happening in the world, but it will usually only go so far.
With this in mind, if someone has been deprived of real information due to paying attention to mainstream media for most of their life, alternative media will be extremely refreshing. Still, if one stays with this and goes no further, it will be like a fly caught in a web made of rotten meat: it will be better than a normal web, but the fly will still be trapped.
controlled opposition
They will think they know exactly what is going on and this will be the perfect scenario for the people at the top. These people would have known that there would be people who would question things, so they had to come up with a way to keep these kinds of people distracted.
It can seem like the people who work for them just come out of nowhere and appear to be different, creating the impression that they are nothing like the people who work for the mainstream media. For example, they can simply create videos in a small room or hide their face.
two ends
Many of the mainstream media lean to the left and generally support Islam. Alternative media, on the other hand, tend to be right-wing and are often critical of Islam.
Along with this, the former is often critical of Israel, while the latter rarely has anything bad to say about it. In fact, they often have a lot of good things to say about this part of the world.
The result
Ergo, it can be normal for someone to believe that Islam is not the problem if they listen to the mainstream media and for someone to believe that it is the problem if they listen to the alternative media. The interesting thing about this is that there are a number of people who are part of the alternative media who started out with different points of view.
At first these people did not have much to say about Islam; what they mainly talked about was Zionism. The question is then: did these people change their views because they were wrong, or was there another reason why this happened?
Lies lies and more lies
So one has to wonder why so much attention has been paid to this religion in recent years; Is this religion, along with the people who practice it, used to distract the masses from what is really going on behind the scenes? This is very similar to what can happen in an abusive relationship, where the abuser does everything possible to make people believe that he is the victim and his partner is the abuser.
What is clear is that many of the alternative media sources are not going to take a closer look at this issue. They have found his goal and all his energy will continue to be directed towards him.
Conclusion
Due to the number of lies that both mainstream and alternative media tell, it can be incredibly difficult to know what is true and what is not. However, what is not so difficult is for someone to define how he behaves and whether or not he will get caught up in what these sources are selling.
Through how they carry themselves and what they focus on, they can make the world a better place or they can add more drama to it. This is something one has to decide for oneself.
