The extremely condescending unwillingness to engage on the merits I think would turn me off even if I wasn’t already Grayzone sympathetic. Just acting like everything is beneath you and refusing to counter any factual assertions and instead responding with mocking derision doesn’t instill a lot of faith in their ability to back their poo poo up

I mean I know it’s because that’s the most effective way to control the narrative but it’s so hollow and clearly obfuscatory that I can’t understand how it works so well

I mean I know that the reason it works so well is that there’s a giant echo chamber supporting the CIA sanctioned narrative but it’s so obviously manipulative it seems like it should backfire

Lmao of course it doesn’t

We were very careful not to call it a coup so that we could keep selling those weapons too

Sometimes countries outside the US just elect the wrong government by mistake and the state dept is just correcting the error on behalf of the people.

Quite benevolent if you think about it.

remembering i used to get probied by him in the dnd middle east thread. and now, he doesnt care about responding people calling him out (elliot higgins aka brown moses), because he doesnt need these forums to spread his lovely propaganda anymore. nor does he need twitter, because he gets to be on telly nowadays. when he can be bothered take the time off the epstein express anyway

the heck is a neocampist? a campus student?

During the cold war people tended to choose a "camp," which meant you were either with Moscow or Washington. There was a third camp of people who refused to side with either Washington or Moscow, and now nobody cares about them because they got completely swept aside by history anyway.

So nowadays when people make fun of "neo-campism" they are laying claim to the loser legacy of Trotskyite contrarians. Only this time their position directly lines up with Washington's agenda instead of merely supporting it materially. Washington's is the only real camp remaining in the world, so you're either with it or against it - yet the only people who get accused of being "campists" are anti-Washington. Go figure.

except even Iraq WMDs hoax argument is being circumvented today, what with the recent round of the narrative that “What a shame about those fake WMDs, that really tarnished what was actually a good decision to invade Iraq.” that’s been circulating in the mainstream press

You also see modern versions of this even from alternative media like “Wow real shame a right wing regime is murdering innocent civilians en masse, it’s really making people forget about the countless atrocities implemented by the despotic left wing government they oustered”

Part of it is that the children of those who planned and carried out the war in Iraq are now becoming journalists in significant markets. One of our more prolific local public radio producers is the child of an FBI agent who was an attache to Gen Patreus during the invasion and occupation. Gotta defend daddy's honor by denying death tolls and insisting on continued interventions
