    Yankees really lived through Afghanistan and Iraq and learned about Vietnam and still think they are being given accurate narratives of state enemies now. I had hoped by now we might see even the most rudimentary skepticism of US media but alas.

      the most rudimentary skepticism of US media

      When I told the guy I knew that the US media has repeatedly lied for decades and offered tons of examples his response was "Maybe they're telling the truth now"

        No one was held accountable and many of the people who lied then are still in power, but I'm sure we're good this time!
