So ‘democracy dies in darkness’ was actually a mission statement

Jup. Zero repercussions for fascism in the US so the rich cozy up to fascists and can become richer. But then the fascist denies class struggle, only race struggle is real. While the opposite is true.

Gotta love our society is just bought and owned by the .0001%. Mainstream Journalism is dead.

Liberal media can still be swayed by whomever pays the money to keep it going. Mainstream media IS extremely corrupt in a lot of ways.

That's true and I never denied that.

I'm not a fan of hyperbole and generalisations, though.

Okay then, I can't do anything about that. I'm still allowed to criticize something, even if it's on my side.

A lot of liberal media, will bend over backwards to placate sources of capital. Will tow the line. Whatever to keep that status quo.

Yes, that's good and healthy.

Shooting blindly into all directions isn't.
