<p>Hi all</p>
<p>An important part of the World Social Forum in 2016 was the
World Forum on Liberation Theology. My take away from the forum
was an appreciation of how our belief systems have been
colonized to support the interests of our Neo-liberal
oligarchies. Many of us cannot see any possibilities other than
the status-quo beliefs that we are being fed by the media and
the authorities. I have come to understand that a role of
theology is to decolonize our belief system freeing us to face
the evidence and truth before us. It is to do battle with the
Neo-liberal colonizers of our minds. <br>
</p>
<p>No where is this more critical as in the area of health and
nutrition. This article demonstrates How this battle is forming
now. There is a danger when the left is encouraged to blindly
accept corporate controlled media. <br>
</p>
<p>Mercola has been an outspoken advocate of nutritional science
and critic of profit driven big Pharma.<br>

<p>Regards <br>

<li> <span id="bcr_rptStory_cslStory_2">The majority of
mainstream media in the U.S. are owned, funded (through
advertising) — and therefore easily controlled — by only a
few powerful corporate entities and industries, some of
which are overseas and may not even have American
interests at heart</span> </li>
<li> <span id="bcr_rptStory_cslStory_3">Only 47% of American
adults trust mainstream digital publishers to report
accurate information about COVID-19. Still, 85% trust the
CDC and 77% trust WHO, both of which have the same
conflicts of interest as most mainstream media</span> </li>

<span id="bcr_FormattedBody">
<p>The fact that there is an information war going on is quite
evident at this point. Mainstream media, supported by monopoly
tech platforms like <a href="https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2020/05/10/google-and-your-privacy.aspx">Google</a>,
<a href="https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2020/05/05/youtube-censorship.aspx">YouTube</a>,
<a href="https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2019/03/27/facebook-criminal-investigation.aspx">Facebook</a>
and Twitter, are going to great lengths to control the narrative
of what you see and read about the COVID-19 pandemic. </p>
<p>Videos questioning the narrative — even when done by health
professionals and scientists — are taken down faster than you
can share them. Social media accounts of well-respected health
professionals are being suppressed and removed. Twitter is even
trialing a moderator tool that warns users when they’re about to
post “harmful” language, although it’s unclear what the company
might deem harmful.<sup style="font-size: 10px;"><span id="edn1" data-hash="#ednref1">1</span></sup></p>
<h2>Fact-Checking at Its Worst </h2>
<p>“Fact-checking” is also in overdrive, with journalists who are
clueless about health and choose to side with the authoritarians
writing articles “debunking” clear and provable facts without
any counterevidence whatsoever. </p>
