My internet news peeve is seeing links to UK news hosted on MSN via something like msn.com/us/global/uk, and because I’m accessing from the UK, it sends me to the homepage.
Comment on MAGA has been swooning over an Army soldier and her pro-Trump message. She is AI
obinice@lemmy.world 14 hours agoWhat I hate most about the Independent these days is that they’re a UK news agency for UK news reporting, but seem to want to heavily report on local USA news now.
Not just big international news worthy stuff, but lots of small local area USA news.
I’ll see some headline that sounds serious, only to open it and find it’s not referring to events in the UK at all, but in the USA, which is entirely irrelevant to me.
Not sure why they pivoted to being a US news company, but I’m sick of it, so they’re on my blacklist now.

I get it, but much of our media has been captured by MAGA loyalists, and has become part of the Conservative Propaganda Network.
As an American, I appreciate the Independent’s non-American perspective and coverage. Before long, we won’t be able to get ANY unbiased news in America, and we’ll have to count on foreign news coverage.
It’s actually a great business opportunity for media like the Independent. They should develop an entire division just to cover American news from an independent perspective. American media is becoming increasingly suppressed.

Apols for the size:
The liberals - or rather their smiling governments - use almost the same propaganda network to hide their atrocities at home and around the world. They created the Russiagate and SO many other nasties that it is amazing that no-one sees it. For the US foreign policy, people like Brian Berletic and many many others show how US plans, atrocities and wars have persisted throughout decades no matter if ‘libs’ or ‘conservatives’ was in charge. Their agenda is the same, and one administration clears the path for the next administration. The population are fed candy-information and no change is ever really made for the people.
Magaites know there’s something rotten in the states, but have been captured to be a nationalist weapon for those they wanted to get rid of. Libs on the other hand actually believes that US was ‘good’ and that what the world sees now are not US, but what they see now, the world have seen for a hundred years. They staunchly believe that only the other side ‘has been propagandized’. Neither have a clue that ALL their values and opinions are another manipulation from those that run the US “Democracy”.
Currently, the US Epstein/Capitalist class have just shed their mask, and are showing everyone - including libs - what US hegemony is all about. However, US elites are not doing well in their new Wars, so they are panicking, and are currently pulling out every trick in their playbook. US empire will crash and a quick US civil war will hide who really controlled the narrative.
Both sides of the uniparty system are controlled by the same Epstein class of people. We can talk about factions, newly rich vs families, mysticism/religions, MIC etc, but it doesn’t change the picture of a completely manipulated US population that have ‘consented’ to a brutal US empire for centuries, and are about to kill each other internally (Both sides are Capitalists, so the elite have nothing to fear by a quick civil war to hide the real causes). US population have not had any say in domestic or foreign policies for decades and decades, and all US behavior internally or externally, are decided by oligarch ‘think tanks’ - not the people or some puppet/party put in place. There are scientific papers that show this, but such information are not disseminated into the US sphere of influence, and are likely framed as ‘conspiracy’ or similar effective manipulation.
This is the true power of the US elite, their ability to opinion-change an entire population through a lot of interesting techniques such as ‘manufacturing consent’, propaganda/narrative control, threats, violent actions, and money money money (money that for-profit information outlets can’t refuse). US were the first one ‘treated’ as a blue mega-church, then neighbors, then EU etc… All current US vassal states have been politically/ideologically captured by the same mechanisms, and they use that mechanism to create hate towards the enemies of the elite - nations that won’t be controlled by Psychos.
No offense intended, but US information sphere is the worst on the planet, and the chance of any - ‘magaite’ or ‘lib’ -, ANY ordinary US or western citizen knowing how they are being constantly manipulated is slim to none. US don’t have any large ‘independent’ news outlets, only for-profit outlets, but they do have ‘the Blue Mega-Church’ constantly screaming in your heads what to think, what ‘values’ to have, who to HATE and what to pay attention to instead of the real deal done by your country’s Capitalist Epstein class that don’t really give a shit about progressive values. That also mean they will also have trouble understanding the scope of this manipulation, because it is news to them. Magaites are better at this point, but libs are being taught to ridicule such ‘conspiracies’, so it’s very easy to maintain these systems. In the end, Magaites are just another group caught in another control mechanism and don’t understand what is happening. It’s narrative control for the masses - all while the elite Epstein shitters skim the top and laugh all the way to the bank…
All in all, if you could stop your Capitalist Epstein Class, then you don’t have to have another civil war, and wars around the world would stop almost immediately. The rest of the world don’t care as long as the "American Psycho"© disappears from our lives, but it would be better for the US citizen to remove the elite instead of the elite removing most of you while fueling WW3. Just saying.
