Ironic considering your last 6 posts are Russian state media. Turning a critical eye to things that support our own preconceptions is hard for all of us I guess
Oh wowzers another fashlib from the ShitJustFash instance.
I'm posting what Lemmy is lacking, there is already tons of your preferred empire ~~propaga~~....oh sorry "news".... for you to digest
There are plenty of great non-msm perspectives challenging traditional narratives in America/ the west. State sponsored media from a nation with very clear biases is not among them.
Saying โyour sources of news are bad so Iโm going to post equally bad ones from a different sideโ doesnโt help anyone, posting better sources does.
The whole notion of dismissing information because it's from a state media source is so bonkers. You don't have to accept their framing, and you can go look up other sources to get different perspectives on a particular piece of news. The reality is that any outlet will have its own biases and leanings. That doesn't mean the news it reports should be discarded out of hand. I read mainstream western media every day, yet I hardly agree with any of their opinions.
