Lemmy, introducing you to the weirdest sources of biased "information".

[-] gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 years ago

Yes, because the US has never been involved in imperialism in Latinamerica, this has to be fake because US good.

It's funny how that's always the response. Obviously it has nothing to do with the well known bastion of free thought journalism at checks notes Black Agenda Report. How dare I question their credibility when they're so well known... Lol

They're a 17 year publication which hasn't sold out, maybe read more than just the same sources to gain a better view of whats going on in the world?

I read several worldwide publications of varying neutrality and bias to piece together a comprehensive understanding of issues.

You continue to post publications I've never heard of and of varying leftist bias. I look them up each time. You should heed your own advice and try broadening your news beyond obscure outlets. If they source a well known outlet that backs up the claim, linking to them would offer you better credibility. Unfortunately that's not typical from my experience, reading these Facebook quality reports.

Justifying biased reading as "They haven't sold out" is akin to burying your head in the sand.

My apologies this isn't a corporate media outlet ran by the 1%

[-] Fazoo@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

There's the deflection. Classic.

[-] shreddy_scientist@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Explaining the outlet is well established and not dictated on what to publish in order for it be broadcast to the masses is deflection? How about instead of saying it's baseless, you highlight what doesn't align with your US Today articles so we can have a discussion instead of sticking your nose up?

[-] Fazoo@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Well established? Then why is it relatively unknown? It's barely searchable on any media bias metric, which is a bad start for it's overall out reach and popularity.

USA Today? Please. I'm talking about worldwide outlets of varying neutrality and bias. Reuters, Al Jazeera, Sky, BBC, and AP to name a few.

Check those out if you get tired of the echo chambers I'd expect to find in social media ads and poorly worded tweets. You're one step up from YouTube Shorts "news".

[-] shreddy_scientist@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Reuters is ran by Bell Globemedia and has ties to the Rothschilds, Al Jazeera is ran out of Dubai and is Qatari state-owned, Sky is owned by Comcast, BBC is well established in their elitism, and Vanguard + Blackrock are the big financiers behind AP.

You seem to be doing a ton of projecting, I hope you're ok. Take it easy and be well.

[-] Fazoo@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago

None of which align with each other, hence my continued statement of reading from many sources, of varied bias and neutrality. At least I know who is running the show in these places, unlike the unknown outlets you dredge up from the backwaters of the Internet.

You seem to have a serious comprehension problem. Best of luck on your continued education.

[-] shreddy_scientist@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

They are all ran by the top 0.1%, any opposing views were intended to simply ignite the ongoing culture war as a distraction from topics like this US backed coup in Peru. Your selection of news outlets is on par with using CNN, Fox, MSNBC, NY Times and the Washington Post. It's wild to me you are blind to this aspect while also soo quick to critique actual independent media.

Is this all to do with the Lithium?

[-] shreddy_scientist@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

It seems like its part of the incentive. Peru and it's neighbors also have Russian and Soviet era military equipment stock plies. These weapons are being asked to be donated to Ukraine and NATO. There's a claim they're setting up prevention methods to deter drug trafficking between Peru and the US as well.

[-] UFODivebomb@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

A common theme among hexbears appears to be the assumption that Ukraine, and now Peru, have no agency themselves.

[-] CascadeOfLight@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

They have as much agency as anyone who could be brutally assassinated in an instant does.
