  • I totally agree, but I find it a tedious point.

    If I say America is evil, or America is racist and genocidal from it’s inception, people don’t rush to say “Well the American government is bad, and racists are bad, and voters who keep upholding white supremacy are bad, and America’s racist laws are bad, and the racist features in America’s founding documents are bad, and America is build on stolen land, and American imperialism is bad, and America’s long bloody history is bad, BUT let’s be clear that Americans are good. Also, many of Americas enemies are also bad.”















  • I find it a little reassuring that it takes billions of dollars of propaganda to oppose a basically nonexistent left wing media. Fox, OAN, PragerU, Daily Wire, and more all claim to be fighting the “liberal media.” But who is that? It’s not CNN, they are owned by John Malone. It’s not local stations, they’ve been bought up by Sinclair. Maybe I could grant that MSNBC is “liberal” but they certainly aren’t the leftists that right wing media fear mongers about.

    It seems to me like basically all far right and mainstream corporate media propaganda is necessary to counter a few scattered authors, journalists, and you tubers whose ideas are powerful enough to be a pretty even match.





  • Do they use it in their cooking? I admit that if someone drops off non vegan products we set it out for people to take rather than discard it. But we keep the meals that we cook completely vegan. We’ve gotten offers of donations of raw cuts of meat. On top of going against our ethos this also seems like a major health and safety risk so we’ve directed them to other kitchens and pantries.
