      What I don’t understand is that “the media” is staffed by ordinary people that are suffering as much as everyone else. Every single one of these organisations has the option to disagree, but nobody does. It’s impossible that they are all staffed only by by magats - why doesn’t anything happen against this fascism?

        A lot of the big media companies have been getting snapped up by billionaires over the last decade or so. The staffers are normal people, but the editors and producers have been either made to toe the line or replaced.

        That’s why the reporters aren’t reporting on this. They’re not allowed to.

        They are not ordinary people. They are rich elites, capitalism and fascism go hand in hand.
