Too Many Democrats Still Operate in the Old Way and It Highlights How Abusive They've Been

There are a number of things that sank the Democrats in 2024, some of which are very obvious, and some that aren't widely talked about. You'll often find there's not a lot of discussion around some of these things because the media refuses to address them.

At this point in human history, it's pretty clear to most that the media is an untrustworthy entity that tends to lean so far left it falls over. I don't have to tell you how much it blatantly lied about Donald Trump and any of his allies over the course of the last eight years, pushing people into frenzies that literally resulted in two separate assassination attempts. 

But the Democrats have counted on this obedient and complicit media for decades. They know that it can be counted on to carry messages and narratives to the people, and for those decades that the two worked in tandem, they were able to pass off whatever lie and false narrative they wanted to with impunity. 

But then the internet happened, social media was invented, and a man named Elon Musk purchased one of these websites and called it "X." 

Everything changed at that point. Musk wanted X to be a website that focused on free speech, not speech that only catered to leftist narratives. Information began to flow freely, and the truth was set free. Suddenly, stories that would have otherwise been suppressed were being circulated without restriction, and the narratives that were once so easily created by the left were dying before they could truly get any footing. 

X became the news source of the present times and, despite the gnashing of teeth and rending of garments, the left's outrage about it fell flat. People began tuning out and the corporate media, once considered an unassailable Goliath, was reduced to being a sideshow. A still-powerful sideshow, but a sideshow nonetheless.

The mainstream media's ability to push lies has been severely reduced... yet the Democrats can't seem to give up the ghost of the power they once held. 

Case in point, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a perfect example of how Democrats can't seem to let it go. AOC is one of the youngest members in congress, yet she still operates by the old ways of Democrat propagandizing. She gets on corporate media news programs and tells blatant lies in full belief that the media will then carry that message to the people, and her lie will be repeated so many times that it will eventually become the truth. 

Here she is on Joy Reid's show last week saying, with a straight face, that the problem with Tulsi Gabbard is that she's "pro-war." She's not, as Tulsi has demonstrated how against war she actually is by wanting to stop helping fund the proxy war with Russia in Ukraine. Joy Reid also repeated the Hillary Clinton lie that Gabbard was a Russian asset. 

"A Tulsi Gabbard nomination is a pro-war nomination globally," said AOC. "Point blank, period." 

Gabbard is very openly anti-war, noting that the wars we involve ourselves in are costly and undermine our national security.

Given, Gabbard is no pushover. She understands that sometimes a trigger needs to be pulled, and some enemies just won't be reasoned with, but aside from the obvious nuance, Gabbard is no friend to warmongers. 

AOC is attempting to bypass all of this reality by pushing a message to Reid in the belief that Reid will plant this seed, not just in your mind, but the minds of her fellow corporate journalist's minds. They will then repeat this lie until the people who hear it believe it to be absolutely true and soon, Tulsi Gabbard, one of the most anti-war people in the United States, becomes a warmongering psychopath in the minds of Americans everywhere. 

But let's be real here. For AOC being one of the most youthful people in congress, she's very behind the times. That's just not how it works anymore. 

Her lie died on X the moment it was uttered. It was shot down by the citizenry itself. People of all stripes stepped forward and offered proof that what AOC was saying was false. 

Not only was the lie destroyed, AOC, Joy Reid, and the corporate media as a whole, was embarrassed and discredited again. 

Either the Democrats are clinging to the old way, unable to let their previous power of the minds of the people go, or they feel that if they persist, that power will return to them one day. 

But it's not. Those days are gone. This change is fresh, to be sure, but the old media landscape is stale and old. It's an outdated model. Once older generations who habitually got their news from corporate media sources pass, this change will be more than obvious.

Technology evolves and with it society evolves. It's been a tale as old as time, from the discovery of fire to the telegraph, humanity has changed alongside its discoveries and inventions. X opened up a completely new path for humanity that changed things radically and quickly. Many people are still catching up to these changes, as the shift hasn't been fully realized. 

But a shift did happen, and the Democrats are behind on it, and because they're behind on it, you're now seeing an emperor with no clothes. They're nakedly lying in an attempt to manipulate you. You can now see their abuse of you in real time. They're exposed as the frauds they are, with no media protection available. 

The new media is you. It's the citizenry. It's the people that don't run in elite circles. It's you and me. 

And this is a fantastic development. Information should never be controlled by one overarching entity, as that will always lead to corruption. You can see just how corrupt things were right now as Democrats like AOC continue to operate in the old way.  

But this is the new era. 

Not that the old guard isn't fighting back. Sadly, the majority of the information gateways are still guarded by radical leftists, and that includes both the corporate news media and search engines. Google is still pulling all the strings available to it, and that includes choking the life out of authors such as yours truly and the websites that host me, like RedState.
