    Yeah, there’s a ton of great journalism out there; you just gotta know who’s doing it. One of the classic propaganda techniques isn’t actually for a bad actor to convince you to trust them; rather, it’s to make you distrust everyone else just as much, which now puts their propaganda on a level playing field with the legit journalism.

    Like many things in life, the solution is nuance and understanding, not sweeping generalizations.

      “the solution is nuance and understanding, not sweeping generalizations.”

      Idk that sounds like a swing generalization
