    Private interests do align, but rarely. Meaning you have more chance at opposing narratives forming. Public is monovoiced. Without an opposing voice its data becomes suspect.

      Private is controlled by large corporations, and often gets state funding. All press has bias. Really, you don’t have anything against the data other than you feel like it could be wrong.

        I don’t trust it. Correct. I like multiple sources not controlled by one person. I like independent journalism. I think your data is bunk, drummed up, fake propaganda.

          You don’t even have sources, just ambient cultural anti-communism. When Cowbee tried to present you with new information, you just responded “tldr”.

          You have zero interest in independent journalism, you reject anything that doesn’t agree with you out of hand

              How convenient for you that anything that doesn’t agree with you is inherently “obvious propaganda” and doesn’t warrant engagement, it certainly it fortune for you that you have created a standard where you can never be wrong and never have to engage with anything that disagrees with you.

          You have nothing for that but vibes, though. You can go to the sources and debunk them if you wish, but with just vibes, you have nothing.
