Gooybob and steelspanker,

Just because both of you do not see it---doesn't mean it isn't there.

Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.—Will Durant

Several examples of protecting the MSM narrative in the United States.

President Trump made a quick statement about the riots in Europe by some of the countries that stayed in the Paris accord agreement that he took the U.S. out of.

I hadn’t heard of riots going on so I did a search engine search and it appears the story has been quashed for the most part in the US MSM. There were only several US news outlets that wrote a story about the riots in France going on for the past 3 weeks using talking points such as rising fuel prices were behind the riots.

So what--our prices over here went up also before heading down again--- without riots.

After skimming through many on line papers from across the pond, the standard reason in most articles was price increases on gas and diesel (some stating tax increases) leaving a good chunk of the working class without money for food and fuel and discretionary spending for up to 10 days at the end of each month while some reported on the devastation of the riots itself.

Finally a paper I found with the possible root cause--- taxes—including the unspoken taboo elephant in the room---the progressive carbon tax the French government enacted in 2014. The price of their fuel reflects an app. 60% tax coming from several taxes.
The carbon tax appears to be the same/similar to what was on our ballot that we just voted out in our last state election as our state legislators continues to find ways to have Washington state be the first state out of 7 states projected in the nation to enact a carbon tax.

Maybe that is why our state is continually pushing gun control issues? Since carbon tax, riots and guns don’t mix? LOL

One CNN world news report wrote the price increase was due to fuel price increases ---technicality right but totally incomplete as far as the big picture went.

To protect another United States MSM narrative could be the rioters against globalist Macron are chanting we want Trump---a known nationalist which would be totally inappropriate on MSM never Trumper media.
