I don’t mean to do the thing where we’re like “oh actually I always hated the guy” but Edward Herman wrote most of Manufacturing Consent. Even Chomsky says as much.

Just want to properly credit Edward Herman is all.

I think that person got cancelled and that list is no more lol.

Blocklists aren’t great, but I think they’ve lost their shine. Most users I think understand now that it’s very easy for those to become personal grievance lists and don’t pay much attention to them.

It’s not a great site and I’m only there because of how Twitter is and Mastodon feels dead and unwelcoming to me. Really, maybe we don’t need microblogging anymore.
