The two hour Grayzone/Moderate Rebels takedown of Sulome Anderson and friends is amazing

I'm not interested in Vaush but he seems like someone who got caught with a hard drive full of pedo stuff + snuff films and then just started doing whatever the feds told him to do

Seriously though where did this clown come from, his twitter reg date is only 2 years ago and he seems to be stupid, why does he have a following, because he says he's leftist but China is still bad?

When there's a giant group of disaffected, maladjusted young people consuming whatever content tech algorithms put across their screens, you can speak with a bare minimum of confidence and get them to believe whatever dogshit falls out of your mouth.

The vague insinuations of conspiracy theorizing or genocide apologia against The Grayzone are the most pathetic in the biz. These cowards will never point to something concrete because there isn't anything.

Isn't there footage of Aaron Mate exiting a building labeled "Russia Today" or something from years back? If there is, that's an anagram for "Toady Sruisa".

When I was a lib I'd have told you that a media organization taking money from NED or being explicitly an organ of the US government like Radio Free "x" doesn't mean that they're necessarily doesn't mean that they're exclusively an op and could still do good journalism.

I was willfully blind and painfully naive.

they were replying to a tweet criticizing BLM's stance on Cuba. The original tweet was wrong too, but only a dedicated anticommunist would then make the jump to talking points about Stalin's crimes and Uighur genocide.

It's one thing to be a denialist naif when it comes to paid government propaganda, I'm more wondering what makes someone think they're proving a point by comparing places like Yemen to a barren patch of Antarctica. gently caress you, dude. Everybody in Yemen matters more than you, even ISIS.

With the benefit of hindsight it's obvious that the frame of mind of such people is basically to just start from the position that things our society classifies as "good" (or at least "not bad") are reasonable. From that perspective, every individual negative claim needs to be separately proved, and any possible interpretation that allows an organization (or the individuals within an organization) to not be bad should be seized upon.

It doesn't help that many of these people (including past me and probably past you) have also internalized the idea that "being intelligent" = "perceiving nuance," and in practice "perceiving nuance" means "being unwilling to come to any strong conclusions."

I follow Dr John Campbell on youtube for COVID updates, and the other day he was looking for information on what was happening in Myanmar. He went to Radio Free Asia as his news source.

I winced, but in the moment it also made some kind of twisted sense that of course you'd default to that as a "reliable" source of information just because it's all in English and has wide reach, in much the same way that I suppose an Asian might implicitly trust The New York Times unless they've also undergone left-wing deprogramming with regards to media bias.

(the other thing that the good doctor did in that video was repeatedly refer to the country as Burma, and the city as Rangoon)
