She made only one direct reference to Kirk, quoting his own words:

“Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot”. - Charlie Kirk

All media is currently Fascist, trust nothing from any news organization. It’s all carefully crafted to shift the national conversation ever more to the right.

What do you think about the guardian

[–] auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

They published that Kirk's high-school friend said he was a leftist (gave no details), then later retracted it because he said he couldn't actually remember.

Maybe they should've corroborated that with some more of his friends before unleashing that?

They’re okay… I also read an article from The Nation that was okay. But these are not really what I would call mainstream. I should have said mainstream in the original comment

The thing with the Guardian is that I think fundamentally they are honest, which I won’t say about any American media organization, except like the onion, or mother jones.

They’re also pretty transparent, and the board of governers of the Scott Trust which owns the paper are all people (save for one former Rothschild banker) that have a track record respecting and protecting the truth and free speech

Anyone wanna bet she will be replaced by a white conservative dude?

No thanks, I'd rather keep my money

Or some blonde pile of plastic surgery.

Welp. I had cancelled after the last debacle, but resubbed on an extremely cheap offer.

I guess I'll have to cancel again.

why are you giving corpos more money

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world -3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Because I wanted a reliable source of news and they offered it for $2 a month.

I also want to support real journalism.

I had no idea the Post was run by Reddit mods.

Bootlickers exist in all walks of life.

I found this Carlos Maza video from three years ago to be illuminating about Charlie and his organization.
