Just need a mega based liberal President who cares about free society to get the CIA blackmail on a few social media billionaires and set off PKP fire extinguishers in all of their data centers and offices simultaneously.

the echo chambers are so bad, like you know a good amount of middle aged white folks are just casually discussing ethnic cleansing on facebook. also throwback to when fox news literally admitted they were an entertainment outlet instead of a news source

Pallywood skits and catered, curated information from a terrorist organization are what you would usually call “propaganda” or “misinformation” but I can see you’ve joined the battle for civilization on the side against civilization.

Social media can provide videos quickly. That doesn’t discredit well sourced and researched reporting from people who have actually studied journalism.

You said it’s better than legacy media. Professional media that has built up credibility is 100x better than randos who present their opinion as fact.

Obviously check your sources and their backgrounds, but media being backed by reputation and history is a strength, not a weakness
