The problem is they don't value objectivity. Just objects and subjectivity.

Oh even further than that. All the way back to the '60s and 70s easily. With his persecution of blacks and the Central Park 5. Immigrants are just the most recent Target of his narcissistic bigotry.
Our media at every level barely ever served us. But it's complete failure in the last half century only facilitated all this. Even those of us here are at risk of being encapsulated in our own little media bubbles and manipulated.
Not sure how we get ourselves out from this. Individually we can value and employ critical thinking. But how do you convince people at Large? When confirmation bias is so much more comforting.
Because nationalist groups when they aren't pitted against each other have a lot in common. It's why Trump likes Bibi, Xi and Putin.
Wealthy German Zionists, negotiated Haavara with Hitler. Breaking solidarity and boycotts against his regime to emigrate to Palestine. Ostensibly to save German Jews. Though ultimately only those that were Zionist and wealthy got to take much advantage of it.
Post war Zionists manipulated international sympathies to make official claims to Palestine and seize control from the people who had actually lived there generations, displacing them. Much as Hitler had done to them. Initially there were many other places discussed to relocate many Jews after the war. It wasn't always just Palestine. But the nationalists demanded Palestine.
Nationalist are scum and always have been.
If you are on voyager, tag them and never be unaware again LOL
Yes and no. Trump is two faced. He regularly holds multiple conflicting positions. He told everyone what they wanted to hear. Compounding the problem, many people build media and information / confirmation by us bubbles around themselves. Where the conflicting message never penetrates. Not to say that there aren't plenty who hear the conflicting message but don't really care.
Fediverse centric podcast. I've never watched/listened. But I regularly see episodes through the new que on Lemmy. They even host on peer tube.
Come on and cut them a little slack. What besides everything the man has ever done would ever lead them to think that he would betray them?
I suppose it's an easy pipeline. Since there aren't any real substantial differences between the two.
Because the major instances are the ones most likely to need support. That and many of them good or bad try to look neutral.
Because for better or worse. Tanky central is the flagship development server for the Lemmy software. And if as an admin you want your issues or concerns to at least pretend to be heard. You must give the campist undue deference.
Your server at least also has a piefed interface. Don't know if world ever will. Though I definitely would encourage it.
Absolutely. And that's the real problem. Until we get that figured out. I don't think anything is going to change. Today we have all the information in the world at our fingertips. But also all the disinformation in the world. Critical thinking is the only thing that can separate them. But it's A Hard Sell unfortunately. At least until someone's life or personal possessions depend on understanding it. So there is some hope that only after things have gotten far too bad.
