Socialism is a series of political movements on top of being an economic theory and our platforms cover more than just said theory. For example, socialists have been in the ring for Palestine since well before October 7th and want to hold the assholes in power accountable for facilitating this atrocity (and past atrocities); as such, it is important to pay attention to who is responsible and why so that when they try to bullshit their way out of accountability, it doesn’t work.

As for your other link there, that’s just part of a larger series of paying close attention to the behavior and biases of corporate media outlets, which has been a time-honored socialist tradition that even predates when Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky first published Manufacturing Consent in 1988. Such media outlets have large amounts of influence over public opinion and frequently serve as reinforcement for the ideology and politics of the bourgeoisie, so if they’re capitulating to US government officials and their nonsense (or are being intimidated into being even less critical of them than they already are), then that is something socialists should pay attention to (because it can, has been, and will continue to be weaponized against us).

Basically, this beehive is a news feed for stuff that would be of interest to socialists and our political goals from preferably leftist news sources, though theory discussion is also welcome (I occasionally post reading lists as well).
