Rabbi Weissman: Media and Google - Weaponized Against You

 How the Media and Google Are Weaponized Against You
A look at the reporting and search results for the Meron massacre and October 7

Most people regularly turn to the media for “news” and for help with shaping their perspective. Instead of simply reporting the known facts, the media tells you authoritatively what really happened, why it happened, what it means, presses certain emotional buttons, and nudges you to react in a certain way to the narrative they constructed.

Based on what they selectively report, and what they choose to emphasize, the media also tells you what to care about, what to be outraged about, and what to downplay or ignore completely. People are conditioned to let off steam by engaging in controlled protests for certain matters, while others matters of much greater importance don’t move them off the couch.

When the media stops reporting about something, the issue ceases to exist. Since people have short memories, and regularly wash their brains with media feeds, they get caught up in the newest narrative and conveniently forget about even recent events. This ensures that they will fail to connect the dots, see the bigger picture, maintain a clear, accurate perspective, take appropriate actions, and — most importantly — be unpredictable.

The masses must remain predictable and able to organize only in a controlled way.

Even those who are fully certain that the media is untrustworthy, intentionally deceitful, sold out, controlled by the rich and powerful, and even weaponized against them, continue to turn to the media regularly for news and perspective, confident that they won’t fall into any traps and be manipulated.

That’s exactly what they want you to do. They count on it. And since they know you better than you allow yourself to realize, they know you won’t stop.

I don’t have a short memory, and I check the media only for purposes of researching the enemy and smashing idols. I know going in that everything they tell me is a lie or a spin, and I have zero interest in their narratives. I can go days or longer without checking the “news”, and I don’t feel I will be missing out on anything.

You should try it. Really.

In the early hours of April 30, 2021, Lag B’omer, there was a mass casualty event at Meron. I remember that the media immediately and with one voice reported this as a stampede by religious Jews (particularly “haredim”) because of overcrowding and a general lack of concern with safety. When I say immediately, I mean in the wee hours of the night, before the blood of the victims was even dry.

That became the narrative. Although there were the usual “calls for a state commission of inquiry”, the narrative had already been constructed, and the “investigation” that would be extremely slow in coming would not have anything new to add.

Click here for a Google search for the term “Meron stampede” for just the dates April 30 - May 1, 2021 and see for yourself.

Since most people can’t be bothered to even click a link, here’s a screenshot of the top results:

The Israel Hayom article, which definitely blamed it on a stampede, was first published at 5:47 in the morning. There is no way they could have known this unless the narrative was fed to them.

This is not journalism. It’s storytelling.

A Google search for “intelligence failure” for just the dates October 7-8, 2023 reveals a similar phenomenon. See here and screenshots below of many of the top results.

Once again, while the blood was still not dry, and in fact many Israeli border communities were still under siege, the official narrative had already been constructed: it was an intelligence failure.

Not surprisingly, the intelligence failures investigated themselves all these months later and confirmed that, yes, it was an intelligence failure. They messed up. Sorry about that. We’ll do better next time.

No major media outlet or establishment figure would even entertain the notion that treason and deliberate betrayal played even a tiny role in this most baffling “failure”. They all independently happened to draw the same conclusion, immediately, in lockstep.

I did a search for the “october 7 intelligence failure“, but this time covering an entire year beginning with October 7, 2023. Check it out here.

What do you know, just more of the same. Pages and pages of it. Here are more top results

I did a search for the same time period, an entire year, but this time for “october 7 inside job”. See it here, and here are many top results.

The filtered results Google displays before you make it clear that only crazy or stupid people would believe that there could have been any collaboration or betrayal on October 7. Anyone who believes such a thing might even be a traitor himself…

Notice as well that there are nearly 16 million results for this search, but Google allows you to see exactly 67.

Google is not really a search engine. It’s a filter.

Finally, a search over the same year-long period for the term “october 7 israel treason” yields a similar result. 11,000 results, but you get to see 50.

See it here, and here are top results:

The best we can find is a vague speculation from a single Knesset member and something from Bibi’s son, who is one of the people you would cite if you wanted to discredit this theory in the eyes of many people (except cultish followers of his father, but believing October 7 was all about “leftists bringing down Bibi” is perfectly acceptable).

This is also why people like Roger Waters are invited onto large establishment platforms to rail about October 7; they come across as raving lunatics (not to mention vicious Jew-haters), so anyone who similarly challenges the narrative can be automatically lumped in with him, and those who don’t wish to be lumped in with such people will recoil from such ideas.

This tactic is known as poisoning the well.

If you managed to read this far instead of getting impatient and clicking away for more entertainment and brainwashing, I salute you.

Will you finally liberate yourself from the media — all of it — and evil entities like Google?

Will you help liberate others?

Will you organize for some productive purpose, and be less predictable?

Or will you keep doing exactly what they want you to do, and expect you to do, and think you’ll still beat them?
