Is it really so hard to find a clean picture?

    I often wonder what the media thinks it's doing when it normalizes neo-nazism like this

    The only conclusion I can come to is that there are a ton of quiet neo-nazis in journalism

      It thinks "Slava Ukraini rah rah people love this shit". I bet half of them don't even look close enough to notice the insignia. They're paid to uncritically churn out fluff, not to investigate or question.

      Journalism is full of liberals. Liberals are actually very tolerant of fascists. It's the communists they can't abide and will actively censor.

      I think they're not even motivated on ideological grounds, they like their job, their salary, the social position it affords them, so they don't rock the boat, and push whatever their superiors ask them to push. They probably think not any of this will ever affect them anyway.

      you give "journalists" too much credit. they're all state media propagandists and only the ones who can be gently guided by the spooks make it

        if you write an article and give it to a journalist they won't even read it a lot of the time and will just publish it under their own name

      If Inventing Reality is anything to go off of, the journalists might not be neo-nazis but their bosses certainly are.
