    The lesson I’ve learned from the Intercept crowd (broadly defined) is: Journalism is like the most petty bourgeois profession ever.

    Hence the horror of social media deluding so many people into thinking that they are also true journalists single-handedly saving the world by not even posting but adding a fucking flag in their handle.

      Journalism is important and necessary when done to “speak truth to power” like when exposing corrupt officials and corporations.

      But it’s just propaganda when done to serve the imperial interests.
