What about non profit news orgs that run under capitalism? Plenty of european countries have national news outlets that don't turn in profit.
This is what I mean, such a good example of the lemmy boogeyman lmao
You asked the OP to tie it into capitalism. I did that. I'm aware that state funded news exists.
I'm gonna assume you thought you had something there, I've no idea what though.
So, there exist non-profit news outlets under capitalism, yet capitalism is bad since news outlets are for-profit?
I am sbsolutely dunking it on commies tonight, holy shit it's easy
I’ve linked a decline in the overall quality of news, especially in the US over the last few decades, to capitalism. As for the rest of your post, you’ve shown a few times now that you lack maturity. If you’re not an edge lord teen then I feel bad for you.
Who consumes "overall news"? I use the national news service of my capitalist home country for real investigative stuff and ad-paid for-profit shitnews for the more entertaining ones.
Read Pravda lately?
Just to be clear, I’m not interested in continuing this conversation. You’re not worth the effort.
Of course you are not. It must hurt when your emotional investment into an intrinsically violent ideology is logically questioned. Time helps my friend.
