I actually took the time to read through the article, now I wish I hadn’t. The whole thing reads like a spy novel conspiracy theory so I had to look up the site… and sure enough, they are actually rated as very low on factual reporting based on their frequent conspiracy theories. I do find it interesting that their rating is also “Far-Left Biased”,makes me feel like this whole article was an attempt to shift that back towards center.
Then again, it was also expected. OP posts at least one article a day weakly attempting to bash the Biden administration, so this is par for the course.
The theory in the article isn’t even a new one, and hasn’t been strongly dismissed.
Just because Biden is better than Trump doesn’t mean he’s a holy Saint. It’s fair to be open to discussions even if you don’t like what’s being discussed.
He was credible, back in the day. Unfortunately, sometimes people go crazy, get bought, convert to evil cults, or otherwise become not-credible-anymore.
Hahaha “he was credible” until he said something you peopel don’t like of course. Don’t kid yourself, back in the day you would say exactly this about every other thing he said.
Attempting? This is the worst regime your loser country has had in a long time. Child poverty skyrocketing, aswell as child labour. A demented lifetime racist and misogynist figurehead pretending to run the place who doesn’t want children “growing up in a racial jungle”, a guy with a slew of very credible sexual assault allegations to his name.
He has won multiple journalistic awards including Pulitzer. Not a good look for you that your immediate reaction on reading something that upsets you is to immediately hop on to a garbage website like mediabiasfactcheck to vindicate your fairytale biases without engaging in any critical analysis.
Oh the article upset me? Wow I’m glad you let me know, or I would have missed that! I actually said at the time that while it was a nice theory that Russia was trying to sway public opinion towards themselves, I didn’t actually think they could pull off something like that. Keep in mind I never said the idea was crazy, just that I don’t trust either the website nor the style in which this was written.
I am sorry. I genuinely thought you were upset that the OP posts articles that besmirch the veritable Biden administration since you jumped to grasping at straws like the writing style and the mediabiasfactcheck report instead of assessing the original source and author of the article which are usually much better indicators of reliability.
I’m trying to piece together your suggestion, but I’m not sure about “lemmygrad”? Is that a reference to the server this was posted on, the server the OP is from, or something else I’m missing?
The server the poster is from, and their comments are hosted. Authoritarians that like the color red congregate there, and with them comes bad faith arguments and consternation. Depending on your browser/app you can ban their instance from reaching you.
Gotcha. I haven’t blocked a whole instance before, but yeah I’m starting to consider it. I’ve noticed a few different nicks posting constant trash lately – most of them get downvoted pretty quickly but a few of them get some traction, and I guess that’s WHY these things keep getting posted.
Tell me you’re young without telling me you’re young.
Mint press is the publisher. The author is the important bit here. Sy Hersh is responsible for breaking lots of stories, and you should recognize his name.
He’s probably the last of the independent journalists.
And Sy Hersh has been criticized by a number of journalists for falling down a conspiracy rabbit hole in recent years, with his reporting on the nordstream attack being a major example.
Wow, talk about circular reasoning. You can’t trust this because the guy has a history of being untrustworthy and your evidence is the thing in question. You’re not even trying.
Hmmm… seems like Lenny has been discovered…
Check out these sources, folks.

The author appears to be credible: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seymour_Hersh

He’s been considered crazy after pretty much every article he has written.
Evidence of heinous acts by government typically doesn’t surface until years later.

It is an article by Seymour Hersh. They adapted it verbatim from his substack: https://seymourhersh.substack.com/p/a-year-of-lying-about-nord-stream

You should just do what I do and block lemmygrad. I don’t see authoritarian drivel, and neither should you!

No need for ageism.

I remember the same criticisms coming out when the torture story came out.
And then the images came out.
When you criticize the US, there are a lot of people that will insist that you’re wrong, and crazy for thinking the US could ever do bad stuff.
Wow, talk about circular reasoning. You can’t trust this because the guy has a history of being untrustworthy and your evidence is the thing in question. You’re not even trying.
