Five years ago, the media launched a campaign to define conservatives as "racists and white supremacists." Five days ago, they changed the terms to "seditionists and domestic terrorists." The first is to dehumanize the opposition; the second is to justify their repression.
The language of many of the BLM protests was explicitly to overthrow the United States government—literally revolution through violence resistance. And yet, somehow, the media never labeled them "seditionists" and tried to shut down their institutions. Quite the opposite!

This increasingly reads like “the media were inaccurate hypocrites so we get to be the same.” No, no you don’t.
