America really needs to be humbled and stop meddling in other countries. Every US war in the past 70 years was a war for regime change and all it has done is piss people off and they go off and choose people that are actively hostile to the US like the Ayatollah to Bin Laden to Sisi. Then the US goes surprised Pikachu face when they get attacked.

We trained Bin Laden and co. to fight off the commies, ergo Bin Laden is actually a kind of knife in the back. Not every war after Vietnam was unjustified garbage, we had treaties, lines were crossed to activate those treaties, we went to war. The regime change BS was barely justifiable as “We don’t want to keep having to show up every other year, so let’s flip who's in power.”

The problem is that someone wanted the regime change to be a MIC money pit instead of a future trade partner, so we had some rather…completely fucking retarded things occur.
 
Yup, Alex Jones is only famous because Hillary made him famous. He was on the fringes, doing nothing that would give him genuine fame. The best we could’ve gotten would have been some water filter merchant memes.

I'm just glad I was alive during that period. It redeemed the internet in my eyes during that time.

 
The best strategy is to watch or read multiple outlets and form an opinion from there. Looking at one source doesn't give the whole story.
That's easier said than done. Nowadays, it's very difficult to distinguish one network's opinion from another, say for example CNN vs. CBS. Way too many people in media simply regurgitate what someone else said and/or tow the official (or unofficial) party line making it difficult to rely on different sources at least in the US anyway. Sometimes you can get interesting insight into certain things outside the US, but that's rare, and more often than not, you'll just hear a lot of the same things you would have heard if you just relied on US sources.
 
I just went to your account to check what you've been contributing. Nothing but jumping into random threads with smarmy one liners. Do you ever post any content in this thread, ever? You are being quite hypocritical.
Hypocritical? I don't constantly post twitter shit and call it "content" you fucking clown. And when I do contribute to the site I do shit like go through 5000+ message discord logs and condense them into ~100 screenshots worth of actual readable material of interest. You can bet your ass that if I were to be a twitter-trawler I'd take the extra ninety fucking seconds to archive what I'm going to post before doing so!

Kill yourself. Unironically. If you can't be asked to do the bare minimum expected of people who post shit from offsite sources you're better off not posting at all.

If you don't realize the value of Twitter, especially after the Musk takeover. I have to conclude you are an absolute moron. And by the way, the attention span of the average person is not that of the autist. Who is willing to read 100 pages of screenshots to get their lulz. People want concise, to the point information, or funny shit. Try looking outside your own perspective.

Can you two just fuck already

There is no evidence of any link between bin Laden's organization in the 1980s and the USA

At best there are claims, not substantiated (none of the claims ever are) that some of the money the CIA gave to the ISI was given to bin Laden's organization, on the ISI's own initiative. The CIA wasn't really asking the Pakistanis for detailed expense reports on exactly which muhajideen they were middle-manning our glownigger money to

Other than that it's random guy with a grift (buy my book about Peak Oil/PNAC/general glowniggery! Link at my blog!) in the early 2000s making claims about the CIA this and bin Laden that with nothing to ever back it up. It's the 2000s equivalent of muh Russia

CNN has more of a slant compared to CBS, at least from my experience. You're not wrong that news outlets regurgitate the same talking points.
 
Because people tend to forget, Alex Jones biggest and original crime was continuing to exist after Hillary Clinton called him out for being one of the “crazy conspiracy people”. Yup, Alex Jones is only famous because Hillary made him famous. He was on the fringes, doing nothing that would give him genuine fame. The best we could’ve gotten would have been some water filter merchant memes.

He existed in defiance of the great Her Turn, he had to be punished.
Well, she wasn't wrong. Alex Jones is crazy. I don't think he's as relevant as he thinks he is. Maybe he gives Hillary kickback, but she doesn't want it. Respect to her either way.
 
Yeah right, "if".

All of these banks have been trading bad securities again. Student debt bundles.. The student debt payments have been frozen since 2020, and once the pandemic SoE ends, we're going to see how many people have decided that they're done paying their student loans forever. This is going to cascade for sure.

CBS is more "professional" about what they do. Bear in mind they don't have obnoxious hot head "personalities/commentators" like Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, Jim Acosta, etc. nor does CBS even engage in 24/7 news coverage unlike CNN.

Didn’t payments just restart, too? Hmm thunk provoking indeed
