    Its oftentimes very easy to poke holes into these “verifiable sources”. Most of the time, they are produced by think tanks which get their funsing from billionares and western governments, so not neutral at all. The same is true for so called fact checkers by the way.

      And given all that imagine how far from reality right wingers are if they complain about mainstream media being too rigorous on facts. 😂

            I disagree. The world isnt so simple that you can fit everything neatly into a left-right scheme. Thinking like that is already a disconnect from reality.

              I do not concur. Abstractions are a useful tool for understanding reality. There’s a clear distinction between capitalist and communist world views. While there is obviously a lot of nuance and variation within these ideological spaces, they provide a useful starting point.
