I applaud him for speaking out. I hadn’t heard of him until just now. My 30 seconds of research reveals that we both dropped out of Hunter College.
He brought up this Nord Stream thing, which seems to be kind of his hot button issue. He is described as an Anti-war activist, which aligns with what I am for as well. Still, I don’t think he is far right or really sharing any of my other views that are popularly held on this board. He seems to be something of a one-trick pony, but I’ll certainly keep my eye out for him.
Nord Stream is a good topic for showing the shift in behavior by the media in the present era because it was properly confirmed as factual by a journalist the mainstream media has always covered. So the point is that this guy isn't good enough for you even though he was good enough in the Vietnam era and Iraq era.
So the question is why is the media now more dangerous than it was during Vietnam or Iraq? What changed in that time? Because we didn't have complete media blackout for even inconvenient stories back then. But now we do.
