I find it a little reassuring that it takes billions of dollars of propaganda to oppose a basically nonexistent left wing media. Fox, OAN, PragerU, Daily Wire, and more all claim to be fighting the “liberal media.” But who is that? It’s not CNN, they are owned by John Malone. It’s not local stations, they’ve been bought up by Sinclair. Maybe I could grant that MSNBC is “liberal” but they certainly aren’t the leftists that right wing media fear mongers about.
It seems to me like basically all far right and mainstream corporate media propaganda is necessary to counter a few scattered authors, journalists, and you tubers whose ideas are powerful enough to be a pretty even match.

As reassuring as the validation is, I just wish it wasn’t so damn effective.
