\n The world is becoming more advanced; information spreads across nations with a single click, and the technology to access the world is constantly being upgraded. However, in some respects, truth remains distant from the majority of people. Everything is either controlled or monitored, fully or partially. Everyone is manipulated, and the human brain has been fed not what it needs but what the elite powers favour.\n <\/p>\n

\n Media plays a strategic role in diverting people from critical thinking in every possible way. Although it\u2019s already too late to realise, people are not yet ready to check out what they have unconsciously absorbed by watching and listening.\n <\/p>\n

\n The quote, \u201cRepeat a lie often enough and people will believe it,\u201d has turned into a crystal-clear fact. The mechanism of half-truth is used as a modern weapon to obscure the truth by presenting and displaying myths, fake news, false narratives, and distorted information as facts on social media platforms.\n <\/p>\n

\n This phenomenon has succeeded extremely in today\u2019s irrational society that is busy with something that amounts to nothing.\n <\/p>\n

\n It\u2019s crucial to bear in mind that slavery is no longer physical; it\u2019s mental. Circuses were held in ancient Rome to distract people\u2019s attention, keeping them away from questioning the emperor.\n <\/p>\n

\n It\u2019s totally done now. Who is left nowadays without getting into excessive entertainment?\n <\/p>\n

\n Half-truths are everywhere, full of bias and pro-narratives for those in power. Most of us are tricked by some of the half-truths, with only a few of us being aware of most of them.\n <\/p>\n

\n Among the subjects often distorted, Islam frequently finds itself at the centre.\n <\/p>\n

\n Here, the mainstream media take charge and play a vital role in steering false narratives, fostering prejudice against certain groups.\n <\/p>\n

\n What was once celebrated as a triumph of transparency and knowledge has turned into a landscape rife with misinformation.\n <\/p>\n

\n You may ask how it\u2019s possible when the world is exposed to search engines. Yep, it\u2019s freaking to think the internet is not operated. The algorithm plays its role, which is coded favourably for the elite powers who fund the entire system.\n <\/p>\n

\n Most of us don\u2019t even jump to the second page of Google search results seeking the truth. Media funded by the governments often fail to frame the incidents as what they are without feeling their political tensions.\n <\/p>\n

\n While isolated incidents get headlines for the media coverage, the most important are sidelined as a part of propaganda. Media agencies, perceived as guardians of democracy and presented as the freedom of speech and thought, only have their end game in profit instead of credibility.\n <\/p>\n

\n Perspectives displayed over time likely stimulate public perception. This relates to the sleeper effect and dissociation in psychology. If individuals engage in challenging mass media firms, they\u2019ll be labeled and denounced as conspiracists and pushed to the margins; However, the freaking lies will still be accepted as facts.\n <\/p>\n

\n It\u2019s not far-fetched to find loopholes, debunking what we have been taught in the name of history, science, and so on, while the royal society controls every sector or at least influences, making every effort to position itself as the ultimate fact-checker.\n <\/p>\n

\n Self-proclaimed authorities couldn\u2019t even provide answers to the questions raised by individuals, other than highlighting the human natural faults of those who stand firm against the falsehoods that have been insisted on deeply by social media.\n <\/p>\n

\n Still, the individual is more powerful and closer to the truth who confronts the whole media by single.\n <\/p>\n

\n To encounter critical thinkers and discredit those who challenge superior authorities, the label \u2018conspiracy theorist\u2019 is generally used everywhere. Moreover, as part of this tactic, puppets are set up, self-declaring as conspiracy theorists and espousing fringe ideas like flat Earth theory to convince people that the whole community\u2014what they call \u2018conspiracists\u2019\u2014is total nonsense.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cDon\u2019t let anybody ask questions and force them to justify what is being told.\u201d This is ongoing; if you challenge power, you\u2019ll be fired.\n <\/p>\n

\n The predator has trapped the prey, but as long as he lives in the paradise of illusion, he will remain unaware of what\u2019s happening. His brain is entangled. He acts like a frog at a well, thinking nothing exists more.\n <\/p>\n

\n Islam is portrayed as a common enemy, a bogeyman to fear; this static helps to corral public opinion. They collaborate to weaponise half-truths to confront the widespread growth of Islam. They control science, their own news, and nearly everything. What do they have to fear when every sector run by them is meant to eventually justify and scientist what they said? Nothing dominates power and money.\n <\/p>\n

\n The only way to combat half-truths is by saying no to media propaganda.\n <\/p>\n

\n It\u2019s becoming increasingly difficult for individuals to question the narratives presented by mass media firms.\n <\/p>\n

\n Whether someone is a conspiracist or not, if the questioner is criticising based on reasoning and logical deduction, why don\u2019t these media corporations provide clear answers? Instead, they often take action against them in the name of \u2018spreading fake news.\u2019\n <\/p>\n

\n The entire world is subjected to the lens of Western ideologies in order to generalise their viewpoint as the perspective of all nations. Middle East and Western forces are and were at odds with each other.\n <\/p>\n

\n Past wars in the Middle East were driven by political motives intended to hold the superiority and dominance of Western countries.\n <\/p>\n

\n To deceive the free-minded public, those wars were framed as Islam vs. the West or Islam vs. Christianity to provoke hatred against Muslims that dates back to the Crusades and continues even today.\n <\/p>\n

\n This is the game media plays. It\u2019s all about half truths. Here\u2019s how the media gave birth to Islamophobia.\n <\/p>\n
