With federal funding paused to USAID, pro-Western media outlets from Ukraine to Nicaragua are panhandling for donations, and a multi-billion dollar regime change apparatus is in panic mode. Among the flurry of executive orders issued by President Donald Trump in the first days of his administration, perhaps the most consequential to date is one titled, “reevaluating and realigning US foreign aid.” Under this order, a 90-day pause was instantly enforced on all US foreign development assistance across the globe – […]
Jacobin are not considered “reputable” here. They’re deeply suspicious sheepdogs who sided with the US state dept on issues like Venezuela and Bolivia until it was clear the entire rest of the left disagreed with them then they delete articles that make them look bad historically.

You live up to that 71% literacy rate america has as your reading comprehension is dogshit, I said literally nothing about grayzone, my comment was about Jacobin being dogshit.
I do find it interesting just how much you’re trying to appeal-to-authority though. You don’t actually read things and make your own mind up based on critically reading and taking on board information, you defer your analysis to the amount of “reputability” that you give to whatever media institution. You base your entire belief system on prestige instead of educated analysis and the ability to critically think for yourself about information regardless of source. You simply dismiss information if it’s not from prestigious institutions and you accept information if it is, you’ve trained yourself not to think and it makes you extremely easy for these media institutions to manipulate you as a result. You are not immune to propaganda.
Damn that second paragraph is going to get some copy-paste action from me. It’s perfect to describe so many libs I’ve interacted with
One of the key differences between us and liberals is that we don’t actually trust any source and critically analyse the contents for ourselves whereas the libs defer their own critical thinking to lib media because they’re lazy and having independent thoughts actually requires some degree of effort.
The entirety of liberal media is a circlejerk of liberal institutions giving each other awards for being liberal enough and if you do this enough times for enough years you’re “prestigious” now and beyond reproach, everything you say is trustworthy and automatically better than anything those people outside the ideology say. Also there are no prestigious media outside the liberal media therefore there is nothing worth listening to or trusting outside it. Everything is thus easily dismissable.

Was it factual reporting when CNN, by all accounts a reputable American media outlet, lied to the entire world and claimed that their own employees had personally seen Venezuelan security forces burn an aid truck? An aid truck that was later proven to have been burned by an anti-government protester when cell phone video footage of the event was released to the public?
You respect media outlets that the people who run our society want you to respect and you disregard the ones they don’t want you to trust. Your feelings about which ones are reliable have absolutely nothing to do with which ones tell the truth.
Saddam threw people into a shredder. The Western media wouldn’t just lie about something like that.
Wow, nice redditism! Love to imply that people I disagree with are mentally ill.

Lmao how is Pete being CIA a conspiracy theory he doesn’t even hide that he worked for them
drown in piss you embarrassing little worm
Mayo Pete has a sus enough history that I think it’s possible he’s a CIA asset. Has Grayzone run an article blaming Gates for COVID? Honestly my opinion of that site has taken a dive because of Max Blumenthal’s anti-vaccine crankery.
