Don't be a Regime-Change Dupe with Ben Norton
historicly.substack.com
Listen now (76 min) | I feel like it is ground-hog day. The American left keeps falling fo the same old regime change propaganda over and over! Today, Ben Norton from the Grayzone joins us to talk about how not to be a regime-change dupeAll of these refer to regime-change propaganda used by official US Sources

I am currently working on a follow-up to the episode "How not to be a regime-change dupe" with a quick guide on **Don't Fall for the Same BS over and Over **

For those of you who were liberals, why did you repeatedly fall victim to regime change propaganda? Why didn't you mistrust all newssources after the first lie?

I know this question is loaded, but I have always been in and out of the US, so I could always instinctively understand when BS was peddled at me. So, I am trying to get into a mind of a liberal who falls over and over for all propaganda points so I can write this essay and I am unable to do it! I could use some help in earnest!

I apologize for calling the regime-change dupe an idiot. It was wrong.

    Even Vice would just kind of brush it off like it was no big deal.

    Vice is so bad with the regime change stuff. The did a piece that consisted of them interviewing Syrians and condescendingly asking them "so, do you, like, understand why Americans think that Assad is a bad guy?"

      That's actually one of the better pieces. Sometimes, they would go in and pretend Al Nusra was all moderate and stuff.
