1 year agoIt gets harder and harder to tell what the truth is in this age of disinformation and astro-turfing. It seems like there’s a pretty clear motive for certain interested parties to take the wind out of the sails, so keep your bullshit detector turned on for now.
Edit: Now that I think about it, this probably applies in both directions.
American politics seeping into every damn thing. And to top it off, with a clear bias in one direction. I resent having the feeling like there’s an astro-turfing effort going on, even when I agree with whatever stance is being pushed. Reddit is really tainted with that sort of thing.
Hopefully it doesn’t take hold here, or at least stays contained so I can decline subbing to magazines that would pertain. I’d rather not have to swim in the “political party A is evil and political party B is angelic” muck in unrelated magazines.
