Bill Weinberg [8] rants against the totalizing propaganda environment of social media, and how Facebook is destroying our ability to think, analyze and access information outside our own "confirmation bias" bubble. The so-called "information revolution" actually sounds the death knell [9] of information freedom and real journalism—and even of literacy itself [10]. This phenomenon partially explains the complicity of the "left" and "alternative" media in the Putin-Pendejo* fascist convergence [11]. This YouTube [12] video is a test run for the rebooted version of the Moorish Orthodox Radio Crusade [13] vlog—please forgive the imperfections, we are still working out the bugs! Watch this website for the next episode, coming soon...
ANNOTATION:
* "Pendejo [14]" is a Mexican slang word literally meaning "pubic hair," but used much the same way English-speakers use "asshole." It has been adopted as a popular pejorative in the Spanish-speaking world for the current Republican Party presidential nominee.
Among the pseudo-left confirmation-bias websites mentioned in the video are the (reliably reactionary [15]) Counterpunch [16] and the (fiction-peddling [17]) Mint Press [18]. Overlooked but certainly worthy of mention is the (perennially wacky [19]) Global Research [20]. The absurd [21] Pendejo claim that Obama "created" ISIS has actually been echoed on "progressive" (sic) websites like Black Agenda Report [22]. (A claim dismissed as a "fairy tale [23]" by secular and progressive supporters of the Syrian Revolution.) Then there are the click-bait websites like National Report [24], representing the alarming phenomenon of actual pseudo-news [25]. By the way, if you are looking for some legitimate websites, you will find several hundred on our links page [26].
