This article is mostly fair, but the conflation of conservative beliefs with white supremacy is repulsive.
It's why this country grows further divided and why trust in the corporate press is at an all-time low.
And it's precisely why the future is independent voices on web 3.0
It's ironic, and somewhat terrifying, that the media class is leading the charge for censorship
If the press cared about democracy, or justice, or freedom, they'd be leading the charge to web 3.0
But instead many will stoke fear, because it's a threat to their power and income
@lbry makes you wonder if history is even accurate or if it's just a series of stories told by those who have a financial interest in the people believing the stories they are being told
