    edit: added legacy media

    Not sure if /s but will add info to push back a bit on legacy media’s Russiagate, for the curious.

    FYI for those that forgot, Bernie Sanders was also called a Russian asset in 2016.


    Veteran New York Times reporter Jeff Gerth dissects the role of the media in concocting a false narrative portraying Trump as a ‘Russian asset’ rather than a homegrown horror.

      Lol “Id like to push back by linking two youtube videos, one from the hill and the other from RNN.”

      We only accept infowars and parler links as legitimate sources, sorry!

      We watched him collude with Russia on national TV with our own eyes. Whatever links you have will never undo that.

        The weird thing here is that when you run these sources through one of those media bias websites, TRNN says ‘far left bias’, and The Hill says ‘slight left bias’. Are these bias sites blind; or am I just missing what having a ‘left bias’ means? Is there some far-left plan by whatever think tank to make me want to support this idea, which I very much do not support? An idea which usually falls under the ‘extreme right-wing’ category, no less? What the hell?

          that’s the ‘crypto’ part. hidden. they pretend to be leftist yet always attack leftists and never corporate or right wing. disinformation artists and grifters.

          That other person with the links likes to listen to weird conspiracy theories, particularly Jimmy Dore. Check the communities they moderate. I wouldn’t put too much thought into what they post and comment, tbh.

          And they always act like they’re so enlightened and unfased when they get called out, it’s kind of eerie.

        Not sure what you are on about…

        This is the internet, once in a while you may run into subjects you don’t agree with.

        Many well-known and respected independent journalists have discussed this subject at length.

      Pure garbage that undoubtedly references each other as “proof”.
      45, and a large portion of the Republican conference is in pootie’s pocket.

          What I’m saying is, he continues to have a vested interest in disproving Russiagate. I’d be more interested in hearing what someone completely disconnected from Russia has to say about it.

            Ah, okay.

            Only a few are that ou spoken, and they all get labeled far-right or russian asset.

            Same as the whistleblowers, which are human with bias in them.
