>>1794616another waste of time, and another conspiracytard website for morons who want a person to blame rather than capital itself.
petty bourgeois dipshits love to delude themselves into thinking that weaving together some vast evil conspiracy by magic necrons is some expression of a real struggle because they don't have actual jobs, and don't participate in the actual class struggle, and so, could never come to terms with the fact that the "final enemy" is a non-human, undead economic monstrosity known as capital, and needs no cultish maneuverings for its circuit to keep running.

>Independent Journalism
Doesn't exist and will never exist.
>>1794664Elaborate. Because I disagree.
>>1794664You have too abstract of a concept of journalism.
>>1794664What do you mean? Are you saying it's all fake bullshit?
You are always dependent on society. I'm a big Edward Snowden fan, but there is a simple reason, why he can't allow to critizise Putin. This is why there can't be independent journalism. Never and nowhere.
>>1794664>JournalismWhatever we think the word means in current year, the Grayzone and Max Blumenthal are sources of it relevant to /leftypol/.
>>1794703>he can't allow to critizise PutinObviously. Which is why he doesn't report on Russia. He's a stellar source on the western security state. Is this your first time considering geopolitics?
>>1794670There's no independent thought to begin with.
>>1794664uygha if I got out with a fedora and trenchcoat like an old timey journalist and start interviewing schizophrenic homeless people in my city that's independent
>>1794710Independent is an economic descriptor, not a philosophical one. Independents are petbourgs, while non-independents are proles.
>>1794664>>1794670Fundamentally, I think the problem is that journalism in a capitalist system has difficulty existing because it doesn't create the kind of instant profits that venture capitalists want. It might be possible in some sense when the people who own newspapers and other media outlets have some noblesse oblige or idealistic higher purpose that lets them accept relatively moderate profits instead of insta-gold. But we now live in an era of venture capitalist schemes, where rank idiots stumble into massive wealth and believe they're rich because they're smarter than everyone else.
When this happens, as it did in the Gilded Age, these morons run roughshod over the world around them.
Journalists also need to make enough money to live in order to practice journalism. It's easy for other people who already make enough money from something else to do punditry and analysis on the side. But journalists need jobs. But the only jobs are in service of the agenda of whatever douche buys a given publication at a given time.
>>1794703>You are always dependent on society. I'm a big Edward Snowden fan, but there is a simple reason, why he can't allow to critizise Putin. This is why there can't be independent journalism. Never and nowhere.Putin and his censorship regime are not representatives of society, but the state arrayed against the society. The idea that the state represents the interests of everyone in the society is pure fiction.
>>1794703>You are always dependent on society. I'm a big Edward Snowden fan, but there is a simple reason, why he can't allow to critizise PutinWhy would that even be notable or desirable as he is a man famous for leaks due to his professional position not because he has anything insightful or interesting to say about Russia, a country in which hehas no special knowledge of, just that he's forced to live in.
>>1794717>Independent is an economic descriptor, not a philosophical one. Independents are petbourgs, while non-independents are proles.What about indiemedia, retard?
My book recommendation: Propaganda by Edward Bernays. This is THE BOOK about propaganda/journalism/public relations/advertising. (Btw the book itself is propaganda in favor of propaganda. It blows your mind!!)
>>1794800>Home Town Hero was an American rock band from Southern California active in the early 2000s. Founding members Aaron Bruno, Drew Stewart, and Jon Monroy began playing together while attending Westlake High School, where their early project was known as the Ice Monkeys. They were greatly influenced by the success of Southern California punk bands of the early 1990s and the grunge aesthetic popularized by bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam. With the later addition of bassist Todd Burnes and drummer Ray Blanco, who replaced Ryan Cox, the band re-christened themselves as Insurgence. As Insurgence they began playing famous California venues, including The Roxy Theatre and Whisky a Go Go. What?
Wikispooks feels like if old r/Conspiracy (before it got taken over by r/The_Donald migration and astroturfing) made a wiki with the worst of schizophrenia filtered out.
The most pathetic thread I've ever seen, with active glowie participation to boot trying to get people to take drugs.
>>1794642Cope and seethe. Leaked Hillary Clinton emails revealed NATO killed Gaddafi to stop the formation of a United States of Africa.
>>1795110The funny twitter joke
>>1795110>Cope and seethe. Leaked Hillary Clinton emails revealed NATO killed Gaddafi to stop the formation of a United States of Africa.That was wokileaks retard not your schizowiki.
>>1795585>>1795110Oh nooo he reused a meme from Wikileaks (on a wiki for the characters associated with it rather than just raw documents) my autistic brain can't take it reee
>>1794616Strongly underrated by people on this thread. It's a wiki, so yes not everyone is going to agree with you most likely lol. It is really not /r/conspiracy I challenge you to find me examples of them acting like that
>>1795668 (ME) turn back on the names I liked it just expand the pool
They're like Taibbi fags
Interesting site I've discovered recently. Slavoj Zizek and Nick Land write for them regularly.

>>1798396>Namechecks NATO Zizek and MisanthrolandWho owns, operates and controls your discovery, anon?
>>1798463Compact actually glows harder than anything I've ever seen in my life I use them as a kind of lookup for GLOW
>>1798396Also, IIRC they are Zionists as well
>>1798463>Who owns, operates and controls your discovery, anon?I don't know, tell me.
>>1798396>Socdem mag>Peter Hitchens as a commentatorThanks for reminding me that I need to bully this retard on twitter again. Coward has never replied once to me since he knows I know way more than him.
>>1794616I've made threads about this before but socialists should not be meddling with conspiracy theories, which are almost all reactionary in origin.
To make the case against the United States-Israel-NATO power bloc and all its abuses, we need not rely on conspiracy theories. We already have
plenty of on-the-record atrocities that we can publicize without fear of scrutiny, not the least of them the slaughter of Palestine. The thing I notice is that in on-the-record conspiracies, such as the assassination of Fred Hampton, the Iran-Contra affair, or the aforementioned atrocities in the state of Palestine, the victims are people of color. Maybe that's why it's hard to get people to care.
>>1799007what was that about? his so called trot phase?
>>1807187But the unknowns are so much more seductive though and the "knowns" are easily revised. Everything that happend before 1990 is discardable as a different time.
Everything past, a new world being born. Everything recent is assessed by truthiness only far below the source and how socially rewarding it is to know or say. Measures you don't set.
Nobody cares you know about the deep lore of Yugoslavia or the financial intricacies of imperialism. They only care you know about Israel because it's been a sanctioned part of the western culture wars for so long and… all those people who care deeply and want to know more will ,at best,forget about you the moment the next worthy victim becomes the current thing that is socially (and financially if you are into that) rewarding.
Best of all, you can offer nothing material, so whatever measly chips you make into the liberal cultural hegemony will be swept away like so much grease from Teflon by a few temporary concessions and some extra rounds of propaganda.
>>1807212Very misanthropic + immaterial + idealistic + you're white
