The situation may get getting worse!  ,
Activists protest everyday.
Listening to them, I’d think love, bigotry, racism and economic risks are at record peaks.

But it’s not real.
Despite our dirty election politicians, for most people, life is better than previously.  ,  ,
Our air and water are cleaner. Longer and healthier lives are lived by individuals. There’s less racism and homophobia.
However, protesters may lose their jobs if they made that admission.  ,
In my new film, John Tierney, a journalist who’s covered protests for decades, says,” For activists, victory is a risk. It is going to throw you out of business”.
I push up. ” They’re not a company. They’re no making money doing this”.
” Yes, they are”! Says Tierney.  ,
He’s best. Economic organizations are likely to make the most. The World Wildlife Fund’s director annually earns$ 1.2 million.  ,
Apparently, that will minimize climate change?
” Climate change is the best crisis”, says Tierney,” You can feature anything to it, and it’s always in the future”.
According to the bank, climate change has caused a rise in the number of “major hurricane.”
” There’s been no long-term rise in the depth or the number of hurricanes”, Tierney points out,” but every time one comes, it’s a wonderful photo op for the crisis industry to use to state,’ This is climate change!'”
When it comes to unscrupulous self-dealing, says Tierney,” The best example is the Southern Poverty Law Center”.
When the SPLC opened, it promised legitimate support to those harmed by racism. After its lawsuits bankrupted chapters of the Ku Klux Klan, the SPLC changed its” Klanwatch” to” Hatewatch”, Tierney points out, “fabricating the idea that there’s a rising tide of hate in this country…. It scares persons, and they get income”.

” They think they’re making the world a better place”, I suggest.
” But they’re no”! he says. ” They’re violently attacking and smearing”.
Smearing teams like” Parents for Liberty” and” Moms for America”.  ,
” Scaremongering and giving people the idea that there’s all this hatred and racism”, Tierney continues,” when all the data shows only the change”.
The SPLC’S leader said he’d prevent fundraising when they raised$ 55 million. Now they have$ 600 million, and they ask people for more money.
Another branch of the problems economy, The Human Rights Campaign, claims that American homosexuals are under assault. They issued a “national state of emergency” for LGBTQ+ citizens.
But” Last month, people support for gay rights reached an all-time high”, says Tierney. ” Gays can marry in every state. There’s no discrimination against sexuality. Gay figures used to be taboo on tv, then they’re almost obligatory. An anti-gay insult is this profession death. However, these protesters must consider some kind of emergency.
Cultural justice advocates assert that America continues to be a racist nation.
How did Barack Obama get elected and reelected in this inherently racist nation? asks Tierney. ” There’s also been a decrease in the search for racist jokes on the internet. People are more than ever actually adamant about treating everyone equally.
I bring up George Floyd’s shooting.
” But that was a really unique function”, says Tierney. ” Reports do not demonstrate any racial bias in officers murders. It was extremely beneficial for activists to take one death and turn it into a “national reckoning with race.”

After the death of George Floyd, they raised more than$ 10 billion. BLM’s leaders spent$ 12 million of it on luxury properties.  ,
And their anti-police protests possibly killed people. Violent crime increased quickly.
Protesters ‘ self-promotion generally kills.  ,  ,
” One of the great public health advances ( of ) this century has been vaping”, Tierney points out. ” When vaping products were introduced, smoking prices plummeted to traditional pullback”.
Because vaping is substantially safer than smoking, many lives have been saved.
” But this was a great risk to anti-smoking campaigners”, says Tierney. What would happen to us if people were leaving on their own? Consequently, they started scaring persons about vaping”.
” They’ve succeeded in persuading most people that smoking is as dangerous as smoking”, he adds. That would be a terrible thing to do to the general people. But it’s been really good for the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. It’s wonderful for their jobs. It’s bad for people health”.
