every moron who makes an RSS instance on here will still continue to add Novara Media since they are less trustworthy with a keyboard than a cat

Novara is libbed up but they write good articles occasionally. I put them in the Zeteo tier.

This is really missing the forest for the trees. Even outlets that actually do have solid geopolitical commentary but advocate for the same path Green Party, PSL, etc are telling people that if they go out and loudly announce their beliefs then reforms will materialize out of thin air. Novara explicitly runs cover for genocide. 972mag and Al Jazeera tier IMO. So yeah on par with Zeteo. Christ I forgot about Mehdi Hasan I've had his stuff blocked for so long.

My issue is more structural than "do these people give me stuff I can occassionally copy-and-paste without everyone getting mad" – they use that stuff to accrue credibility, and the US media apparatus uses that credibility to spread premises which are more important than people objecting or supporting blatantly unpopular moves. Besides, they hit the same notes repeatedly. Generally they just repost the NYT and say "wow this headline is hypocritical". Like yeah of course it is, traditional outlets like that have no purchase with regular people. That's why they need liberals who complain about the editorial practices of orgs they are half a chili too spicy for to keep them in the loop.
