So I realized besides Red Sails and Counterpunch there isn't a whole lot of leftist blogs/news sites I go to (aside from Hexbear/.ml and grad of course). What are some good sites I can add to my bookmarks list?

Like most, I used to watch DN! regularly when I started my Leftist journey, they are great when it comes to the Americas, but once they start reporting across the ocean, they turn into State Department mouth pieces. This was most obvious during the Libya situation leading up to the NATO bombing and assassination of Qaddafi. They had on as their regular guest, Juan Cole cheer leading for the "Moderate" rebels. He was orgasmic when Qaddafi was killed. DN! did the same playbook for Syria. Amy Goodman never met a Colour Revolution she didn't fall in love with, always bringing on Liberal guests to make their case for regime change. Turned off DN! forever.
