In other words, the objective was to get liberal readers to think a little bit more like neo-Marxists.

I don’t believe most African-Americans believe this (1619 Project BS*), outside the elites. They’re much less doctrinaire than elite white leftists on a whole range of subjects. I don’t buy it either — alongside, I suspect, most immigrants, including most immigrants of color. Who would ever want to immigrate to such a vile and oppressive place? But it is extremely telling that this is not merely aired in the paper of record (as it should be), but that it is aggressively presented as objective reality. That’s propaganda, directed, as we now know, from the very top — and now being marched through the entire educational system to achieve a specific end. To present a truth as the truth is, in fact, a deception. And it is hard to trust a paper engaged in trying to deceive its readers in order for its radical reporters and weak editors to transform the world.

Propagandists on par with Goebbels.

So a propaganda editorial tells you something is propaganda, so you must believe it...

A Lefty accurately defines the Goebbels Media.

Rahmbo, Maher, Hoff Sommers, Rendell, and Sullivan to name a few are warning the Insane Left.

The Insane Left ain’t a listen’in though... and that’s fine with me.

PS. You’ve heard the old story about a blind squirrel getting a nut? They did. Hope you get yours too one day.

We do not listen to the Goebbels Media. You sure seem to do though. It is hilarious how you cry about the far less than .1 % of news stories that are wrong, while loving editorials and blogs that are rarely actually right.
 
That's just disgusting. They're suppose to be a NEWS SOURCE!!! NOT a propaganda machine! That would be like a large network spewing lies all day long, calling it a "news station" and favoring Republicans and distorting the truth and.......ah...never mind.......

:lamo I've never read zimmer's posts (that I can recall) but in the past 48 hours I kept stumbling on them and thinking did this person just discover a new word or what?
 
The OP gobble up the Goebbels media too easily.
 
Why is Andrew Sullivan used as a credible source/opinion for anything? :lol:
 
You could've posted this in 1950 and it would've already been true back then! Way back in the 1930s, the NYT actually had a pro-communist journalist who devoted his time to denying the Holodomor(the Ukrainian holocaust), which was caused by Stalin, who sent in his army to steal the food crops from Ukraine, leading to the starvation of millions of Ukrainians! This "journalist" used the same tactics of demonizing, intimidating and discrediting anyone who dared try to expose the crimes of his beloved communist dictatorship! Things haven't changed much there.
