Suuuuuuuuiiiiiiiiii
You know, what with this and AOC daily roasting fools on twitter, I have a warm feeling that the forces of decency are finally learning how to combat the endless rampage of nonsense that was unencumbered the past few years. To an extent.
Hope this stays, and more browsers follow suit.
Mild cencorship by a private entity. Neat
Not really as you can still click on and read their stories.
Itâs a warning that what you are reading is in all probability based on zero fact or research behind it, and is probably garbage.
But if you want you can read it anyways.
Calling out shite is not censorship.
I have long been calling out the lack of due diligence in media. How is it that 5th year high schoolers have to back up everything they say in a formal piece of work for high-school, yet highly paid journalists writing for the largest papers in the country can assert any shite based on no sources??
Thatâs how the anti-vaxx craze started. The Lancet never should have published such shoddy research. If they hadnât that wouldnât have been censorship but quality issues.
If I assert that reading books causes cancer based on one guy I know who read and got cancer, based in nothing else, it wouldnât be censorship if no journal wanted to publish that research.
My only gripe is that they donât include other tabloids.
Itâs not censorship.
Or other newspapers in general, all of which have some inherent bias.
Itâs just the Mail is particularly unsubtle about it
Bias isnât the problem imo. Everyone has bias. Everyone is trying to make a point. Imo those that pretend to be unbiased (BBC) are really the dishonest ones, hiding their true allegiances.
What matters is that if you have high quality evidence to back your claims up.
The Mail doesnt
The day this bad cunt is locked up will be the day I feel were back heading in the right direction as a society
I mean Tony of course, not Owen who might be annoying but that doesnât deserve prison
See all this Churchill stuff?
People in Britain are never going to turn on him. He will always be a national hero, despite some horrible shit he has done.
Which I get.
But what I donât get is this kind of nonsense propaganda from so called âsmartâ people:
The man who saved the Jews. The man who won World War II.
I could understand brexiteers or whoever saying that, but anyone that learned even a tiny bit of history would know that while Churchill and Britain played a part in the liberation of Nazi concentration camps, the war truly would have been lost had it not been for the US and especially, the USSR.
The Soviets I think liberated the most camps and took Berlin causing Hitlerâs suicide. Contributed the most to the Alliesâ victory.
But the Soviets and Stalin donât get any such sympathies as Churchill from these âlearnedâ British pundits and media figures.
And in reaction youâll say, âof course, because Stalin wasnât British!â and thatâs my point.
All this stuff is propaganda and it pisses me off when people who claim to be above that and âunbiasedâ and âfact basedâ also trot it out.
But then I kind of understand, and I reiterate my point that the British propaganda machine is probably the best in the world.
Nobody does deception or subterfuge better than this island. Even the propaganda has many people maintaining the propaganda isnât that, but actual facts and truth. Itâs that sophisticated, that good.
The only brit that added something to the war effort that couldnât be replaced by the US or USSR was Alan Turing.
How dare you butter lefty scumbag!!1!1!1!
Churchill was the best PM we ever had!!!
Still bitter about the Falklands are you Argie?! 
Itâs the victors that write history.
When I was at school in the seventies, we were taught that the second world war was virtually won by Britain and that the Americans were only involved at the end, just to clear up the mess and take all the credit.
Saying that, when I was at school, we were taught about Noahâs ark as part of a history lesson, rather than being a fictional story.
Damn straight and donât u forget it. When I make my way out for an Arsenal match I expect to be bought some beers for my two Grandpaâs service in winning the war for u losers.
Yeah donât worry about the COMMONWEALTH countries that gave their all just so Churchill could be a legend ?? Churchill also had issues and was proven to be a racist as well !! Fck me they need to teach people the truth, not that shit written by victors !!
70 years of shit âMURICA SAVE YOUSE FROM SPEAKING GERMAN OR SOME SUCHâ Hollywood movies completely neglecting to mention the huge part DEM GODDAMN COMMIES played (not to mention their great sacrifice) is payment enough.
:unai:
Listen to the âGhosts of the Ostfrontâ podcast by Dan Carlin. Five hours of history goodness.
I think it gets overshadowed by things like The Great Purges and the ~6 million people he had killed.
It took everyone. The commies saved Europe but imagine having to send resources to the pacific theater where we were busy with the Japanese.
Yeah, I remember reading about the Great Purges and the famines etc. I wasnât actually trying to come across as defending DEM KOMMEHS other than the fact that their contribution was overwhelming.
Including crooked tooth Brits (and the Poles/Czechs/Empire) in the Battle of Britain. Without which the US wouldnât have had the finest floating fortress in all of history to launch from. :unai:
