Counterrevolution: The Media
We have looked at past counterrevolutions, why they failed, and even provided a blueprint for launching a successful counterrevolution. Yet, there are some inevitable problems that a counterrevolution would face. As outlined here, the counterrevolution will take place as follow:
-First, a handful of right-wing George Soroses will get a counterrevolutionary plurality elected to Congress. The key to getting this plurality elected is running on a platform of supermajority issues that will tangibly improve the lives of the electorate.
-Second, after capital is transferred from regime aligned corporations and donors (think Amazon and Walmart) to the middle class, then, as our enemies are destitute, it will be possible to hold a people’s tribunal in which Deep State actors are put on trial for their hatred of the American people and their attempted destruction of America.
-Third, after the Deep State is cleaned out, by a mob of enraged citizens no less, it will then be possible to demand sweeping governmental reforms, ending in a change in government structure. Here you can return America to a Republic, or change it into an autocracy, monarchy, or whatever else you like.
There will be resistance, major resistance. First and foremost, we can image how the media will react. They will likely do all they can to smear the counterrevolution and encourage antifa, BLM, the John Brown Club, and the rest of their foot soldiers to wage war on the counterrevolutionaries. It will be the media’s priority to turn the American people against the counterrevolution. Just think of how the media mobilized the people against Trump, against the January Sixth protestors, and, currently, the Canadian truckers.
Action will need to be taken quickly; public image is everything in a hyper inclusive mass democracy. Luckly, as per code 606 of US 47 of the Telecommunications Act, the president, in times of war or in national emergencies, if he deems it fit, can seize control of television and radio stations, as well as the internet. You can read the entire text here, and it is striking how the president can take control of virtually all communication in the United States.
A key passage is section a)
“During the continuance of a war in which the United States is engaged, the President is authorized, if he finds it necessary for the national defense and security, to direct that such communications as in his judgment may be essential to the national defense and security shall have preference or priority with any carrier subject to this chapter. He may give these directions at and for such times as he may determine, and may modify, change, suspend, or annul them and for any such purpose he is authorized to issue orders directly, or through such person or persons as he designates for the purpose, or through the Commission. Any carrier complying with any such order or direction for preference or priority herein authorized shall be exempt from any and all provisions in existing law imposing civil or criminal penalties, obligations, or liabilities upon carriers by reason of giving preference or priority in compliance with such order or direction.”
Section a gives the president the ability to direct media as he wishes and give priority to his communications. Sections b through d provides the various means by which the president can shut down, or seize control of, any and all types of media that interfere, knowingly or unknowingly, the directives of the president, section b going so far as “The President is authorized, whenever in his judgment the public interest requires, to employ the armed forces of the United States to prevent any such obstruction or retardation of communication.”
This seizure will be justified on the same basis as the people’s tribunal: the media are undermining America’s safety by siding with a cabal of rogue governmental actors who desire nothing more than the destruction of the country. To add an extra layer of justification, the media, which will be directed by the FCC, will provide soft opposition. Agreeing with the necessity of the counterrevolution, an essential piece to all of this, the soft opposition will be able to argue for softer measures, or that the counterrevolution cannot be a regime of permanent emergency powers, or something else along these lines. A North Korea media is not desired, but all media needs to be in agreement that the counterrevolution is necessary and good.
It goes without saying that there can be no hesitation. If section 606 is not invoked, the counterrevolution will fail and all those involved will face the worse conceivable treatment. In the event of a failed counterrevolution, it is likely that the political establishment would inaugurate its own constitutional dictatorship. Justin Trudeau is a good example of what a desperate establishment looks like, but also how far constitutional powers can be used.
