Real Fake News (RFN) is the only non-partisan news source left. And its integrity is under sustained attack by the peddlers of illegitimate fake news. It’s being stomped on by those charlatans who declare themselves honest, rational and accurate.
Abdul O’Shaunessy, one of the best known Real Fake News writers working today, emphasized this point by adding, “Those partisan pricks are taking over.”
Abdul is right. The purveyors of illegitimate fake news have cleanly divided into two partisan camps. And each of those camps declare themselves to be the paragon of honesty.
We writers of the RFN say right up front we’re gonna lie like hell and then present our lies honestly in a straightforward manner.
So, who are you going to trust? Those people who tell you what you are about to read is total bullshit or those who swear what they are telling you is the absolute truth?
It’s getting tougher and tougher to compete when we are all telling the same lies about the same people. Those partisan pricks are encroaching into our territory without shame and without mercy.
Let’s take a recent example of an incident that occurred during the presidential inauguration. Specifically, the moment when Mrs. Trump gave Mrs. Obama the traditional gift marking the transition of administrations.
Anti-Trumpers called Melania “A haughty Empress who considers the Obamas lowbrow and quite bourgeois. She showed her disdain by off-handedly tossing her box on the table and moving away from the rabble as fast as she could.”
The Pro-Trumpers referred to the event as “A gracious gesture on the part of Mrs. Trump to show her appreciation of how Mrs. Obama has conducted herself as the FLOTUS.” They called it “typical” when Mrs. Obama showed no appreciation whatsoever.
Mr. O’Shaunessy said the look on Michele’s face betrayed her aching desire to get her hands on Melania’s box. And ever since seeing Melania’s girl on girl spread in the fashion magazine article, she could think of little else.
Now all three are bullshit but the readers of the illegitimate fake news swallowed their preferred versions whole and are happy to repeat it to anyone who thinks just like they do.
But us RFN readers are much more sophisticated.
We understand how things really work.
We are perceptive, sharp and quite clever. We are truly the only intelligent consumers of information left.
Abdul O’Shaunessy had some chilling remarks about the future of Real Fake News.
“They’re filching our stuff. And some brilliant RFN writers, good friends of mine, have been coaxed over to their side. We are starting to lose our best and brightest.”
Please, don’t let our lies continue to lose their credibility.
Get up and call hooey on all of it.
Standup tall for sincere and heartfelt bullshit.
At this critical point, I can do little more than salute your dedication to honesty.
I’m sure Adbul will agree with me when I say that Real Fake News certainly attracts a better class of people.
Benjamin, I’m interested in what you meant by “a fully postmodern environment”. I would like to understand that better.
Someone wrote that Trump is the result of Obama. I’m assuming it was saying that Obama took it too far one way and it has snapped back hard and fast. Opinion?
It is unfortunate when our lies lose their credibility, because of the impostors whose job is to spread doubt until no one knows what’s up or down. It’s rather like how stand-up comedians are having difficulty mocking Trump, because he’s self-satirizing. When the so-called elites come down to the internet’s level, we’re in a fully postmodern environment, which spells the doom of Western culture.
