Silencing Opinion Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen
Silencing Opinion
Silencing opinion
On france24 a TV Channel a red haired lady an enemy of a man
that is not yet a president of the USA, said something strange:
if anyone is critical of America, it is because they have been
influenced by Russian propaganda that is by fake news
I thought that was clever if it the norm of freedom of speech
say goodbye and there can be no intelligent discourse anymore.
whatever you say your head has been turned by the Russians
This is only new now, but the tactic of belittling dissenters is an old
Israeli trick that or calling people anti-Semitic, if I tell you that Israel
is a state in Palestine I would be called nasty names
if I tell you that Barrack Obama was the worst president America
ever had you would call me a liar nevertheless it is true but what
I will be called fake news by the masters of the black art.
The freedom of the word is threatened by the liberal class who will accept
any criticism of their opinions, we who believe in the true democracy
are in for a rough ride not from Trump but from the intelligencia.

I can't make heads or tails of your grammar. Might some punctuation help? Or proofreading what you've written before hitting the submit button. Or maybe that incomprehensibility is a Trumpian conceit? Really, it's just hard to know °exactly° what you're trying to say here. I get the gist, but poetry needs a higher standard than that.
If it's only an opinion, and not a poem (and only barely comprehensible writing) , please save it to put on your home poets page. This is noise.
not a poem but an opinion
not a poem just an opinion
