Yeah Skydance/Paramount/CBSViacom just bought the Free Press for $150 million and installed Bari Weiss as CBSNews editor-in-chief.

Nope. Didn’t say that at all. What I said was the CIA criticism -and it’s justified criticism- never carries with it any criticism of the Soviets, who were doing very similar shit. And for some reason that just pisses people off.
I assure you, based on the responses to my initial comment (and the copious down arrows) that NO we can not talk about the KGB. It’s the CIA alone in the world f’ing up nations. That is the narrative. Do not look at a bigger picture.
How’d you guess? You so smart!
Thanks for the name calling. I am educated now.
I’ve been hearing about CIA atrocities for decades. They’re real, they’re ongoing, they’re something people should know about. But most folks who dwell on the CIA never ever look into the other side of the Cold War, the KGB, the Soviet Union, and all the equally heinous shit they did. It’s like they didn’t exist and the CIA did its deeds out of perverse fun & psychosis. It was decades of covert “war” between two competing superpowers. Acknowledge that there were two sides and they both engaged in covert war activities.
Yes, literally. Except that cake and pop tarts are made of the same ingredients.
Yes indeed, everything that strays from the dogma at hand is whataboutism. Historical perspective, nuanced details, everything. To say the CIA is bad implicitly implies everyone else was good.
Yes. But don’t understate the shit the Soviets were doing.

I’m annoyed by celebrity culture, but geezus anti-celebrity culture can be just as insufferable.
Just tune it out people.
No one who wears a Panzer pin knows what “cis-gender” is…
modestmeme@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Sharp rise in Americans applying for refugee status in Canada, data shows431·2 months agoIf you guys really think that the United States is genuinely comparable to Nazi Germany, then why the fuck are you doing nothing about it? Pretending that you can just migrate to another country, find work, live your life isn’t doing something. There are massive logistic hurdles to do that. Spending time on some social media app wistfully complaining doesn’t do much either. Is everyone’s anger here performative or real? Have you guys done anything other than gripe to forestall whatever is coming?

They did release the files. It was Oswald.
Wait, Newsmax refused, the media outlet that makes Fox News look normal? Huh.
