        I’m aware of the arthur reference, but it’s really important to realize these aren’t off-the-cuff lies.

        This is a planned, coordinated effort that has been going on since before I was even alive; and the journalistspropagandists have been very carefully selected- and have indeed worked very hard to get the job of fucking over americans.

        Decentralized media like fedi is the only hope of the working class.

        Owners either own or control everything else government, fake news, TV, Hollywood, publishing, corporate socials.

        Wikipedia will be deposed in time, they are already mawing at the foundation
