you lumped me in with some other group that considers itself far-left but I just consider to be wrong.

That is not my experience at all, I’ve had almost no issues at all with anarchists and even confused social democrats and libertarians IRL. People who live in the imperial core, claim to be the left, but spend their time going after actual leftists are fundamentally unserious.

I was banned from there for “misinformation” when I explained MLK’s position on moderates and linked his letter from Birmingham jail.

Nah, no order.

When the shows bring in stuff from older shows, they explain it in episode, or you’ll figure out the gist of it from the framing, the writers themselves often hadn’t watched every single episode of the older shows.

I think SNW and LD are the only ones where the writers actually bothered to watch everything.

That’s different

When they assassinated that Vulcan (no spoilers), that was a pretty good example of Perfidy though.

As others have said, DS9, Lower Decks, TNG, Voyager, are all great choices. Strange New Worlds isn’t bad either.

Now some potential dealbreakers: Lower Decks is a cartoon and heavily references other shows (but does explain most of those references), TNG is very libbed up and side-steps a lot of the moral questions Startrek is known for, Voy solves those questions with warcrimes, SNW tries to be too inoffensive and is very much directed at fans. I can’t think of anything bad to say about DS9.

which is not the enterprise and they got lost (forgot the name

Voyager.

Left-wing instances were defederated preemptively, as a last resort because the admins feared they would “dismantle western propaganda”. Right-wing instances were defederated after they wouldn’t moderate their users posting CSAM, gore, and nazi shit.

What did she do to the poor man?

I’m sure the next country the US wants to proxy into oblivion will learn from Ukraine, right?

That would be Taiwan, possibly alongside Korea and Japan, right?

Last I knew, Rojava was working the the Syrian government. They’re quite aware that if they had their own state, Turkey would invade and genocide them. Not that Turkey hasn’t been bombing them in Syrian territory anyway.

What kind of headline is that?

Did he also deny beating his wife and kicking puppies?

Nowhere in the article does it say who is alleging the guy was a Hamas leader in Lebanon.

While that is the excuse he will use, the justification comes after, he’s going to slaughter thousands of civilians either way.

A settler-colony founded on ethnic cleansing claiming to be the victim, rich.

How else do you stop psychopaths who just leveled 6 apartment towers in the heart of Beirut if not with violence?

He was targeted by the most powerful groups in society, immigrants.

One day, this country’s most marginalized group, police, will rise up, and get the boot of homeless people off their necks.

be critical of information coming in

The atomic unit of propaganda isn’t lies, it’s emphasis. Most propaganda doesn’t take the form of false information, but true facts spun in a certain way to build/reinforce a specific worldview in the viewer.

Tencent owns 11% of Reddit. Reddit is primarily a US propaganda operation.

Tiktok is wholly owned by a Chinese company, but unlike the rest of the world, the US version is hosted and managed entirely within the US, this (along with hiring a bunch of spooks and killing controversial things in the algo like BLM) was done in response to the Trump administration trying to come up with excuses to ban it.

I don’t see why China catching CIA agents would concern Americans. Most Americans are not CIA agents inside China.

Does whether or not Ukraine can win affect the calculus for the Biden admin in any way? Politicians on both sides have described the war as a way of killing Russians without spending a single drop of American blood, and every bomb sent justifies/enables more campaign donations.

The only thing that would be problematic for them would be a quick victory or loss.
