Big Oil controls media

[Oroboros]

This oil spill happened on Jan 6. Today is April 17. 100 days and I just heard about it today.
100 days and I find out about it from a Facebook share.
Let that sink in folks.
Who controls what we are shown and told about ?

In amerika it's the republican party relying on the bible and family values. Ironic being they molest women and children and cheat thru lying about profits, donors, and tax breaks to enrich themselves. All spun by Fox News and the major networks.
We just got back from the capital where we met with oil industry reps who are trying to kill any remaining enforcement of the federal Clean Water and AIR Acts.
"Impediments to our 'right to profit' protections" they actually come out to say. Deregulation. They ran and won on that platform.
It is the same as charging customers for tree work when you never did it plus you can use the law to force them to pay. Or having the laws against bank robbery eliminated because they impede your ability to make (or just steal) money. Same thing.
Capitalism has failed. Big time.

I recommend hacking their systems and key players.

Most right-wingers do just that.
