I can't think of a news source that isn't corporate garbage, other than DN and a few other indies. Our news has arguably been corporate garbage since Hearst and the Spanish-American War (you can look up his infamous quote, how Pulitzer competed with his publications, etc. For decades, I was a loyal Dem voter, even suppporting Billary; I was disgusted enough after his second term to start looking hard at Kucinich, and that election cycle, the media mentioned him once or twice in a sentence or two; compare that to the platforms they gave Killary, W and other was criminals, or the recently convicted felon.

I've learned to be terse in political commentary, if Eve6n commenting at all because I'm sick of being called a Russian bot. I'm not even adverse to the Russian people, nor am I willing to deny genocide, but "Joe doesn't genocide, you Russian shill" in some form or other gets damned old. Even when he's playing in our faces, we get told begrudgingly by very few, "he genocides less than the other guy would!" Right, like he's so different on other policies.

We do need to demand better candidates from the DNC or better, vote for other parties candidates, but only Russian or CCP shills would dare think outside the box.

TBD idk if Oz is a hired or sock puppet account or not, but refusing to question ourselves and our parties and individual candidates doesn't make us different, from the other side, it just rearranges deck chairs on the Titanic (nation, planet). It's late and I'm not really interested in arguing the same tired points. Just putting it out there in wild hope someone interested in hearing actually will consider it.
