I want to delete reddit but I like following worldnews and politics to get a general feel of what's happening. Yeah it's all libshit but my radicalization is a fairly new development

    Oh yeah Jacobin is one decent outlet, another is redfish as I said but that is not quite a news outlet, just a fun thing for updates on various stuff, some smaller blog type stuff, Le Monde diplomatique is decent, some other stuff in other languages... Things like Grayzone etc you should be careful with because while they often have great stuff they're also pretty much propaganda and while they can be useful as such, they won't always really say what's going on or anything like that. For instance, the Nagorno Karrabakh invasion was a pretty big thing that happened recently but all Grayzone had about it was some article about how it made the Syrian mercs that Erdogan used sad or something. Grayzone is focused more on promoting Russian foreign policy so of course they're not gonna care much to cover the whole thing. There is a similar obvious bias with stuff like Telesur but they are generally better than the mainstream American shit.

      Huh, I didn't know that about Grayzone, thanks for the info then. I'll check out redfish too, world news is one of the things I'm trying to learn more about so sounds useful.
