Fourth of 5 parts

THE left has a way of drawing to its side those who are too gullible and naïve about what’s happening around them. Leftists are experts in “framing” their narrative, glossing over a certain incident to paint the government as the enemy and invoking their freedom of speech. This is how their friends in the media truncate fake reports and sell them as news. In propaganda war, which is what this communist insurgency in the Philippines is, this is a necessity. Deception is an art that the communists have mastered. The only way to counter this is to be watchful of the lies they peddle and call their attention. And we should be discerning enough because they are masters of this art. They have been targeted by the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) cadres for their skills and abilities, and after a while, we will find them as desk heads or editorial chairs. This explains why some good news will often turn to the left and be excruciatingly painful for the other side, despite their falseness. As the French would say, “C’est le ton qui fait la musique (It’s not what you say but how you say it).” So how do you beat them? Give them a dose of their own medicine; this time loaded with facts, knowledge and truth.
