While it is easy to use phrases like “use critical thinking”, this is not easy for elders or cousins in families to be told, as this is not lucid to understand in a snap. It is essential for criticism to be easily communicable to ordinary people that watch Google Feed or MSN News daily, and I feel that such criticism is not even easy to access or read, considering ordinary people have been cornered from MSM, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and rest of Big Tech and Western media apparatus.

If you love your BBC and CNN feeds, avoid this post, this is not for you.

      Is it not possible to consume a variety of different media outlets and form your own opinion based on the information available across the spectrum rather than decided to blanket ban specific news outlets?

        Possible but only if you are honest with yourself and not see yourself tied to “preserving Anglo empire” and are not their parrot. What you feed your brain, you become that. So by constantly viewing all of the global news media, out of which roughly 90% is Western media controlled by handful groups (NED/CIA, Bilderberg, Murdoch and CFR), you will see the same bullshit but differently phrased across 90% of the entire global media you seek to consume to form your own opinion, and end up not forming your own opinion. You will see the 2% Chinese and Russian media as not representative of majority of news, where majority of news is already invented by West to manufacture consent from you to act as their mindless parrot.

          Can you suggest good places in your opinion to get news on the Chinese/Russian situations?
