1·6 months agoWhich ones? For me, genocide is at the top of worst possible crimes.
If I’m a bot then I must be the worst bot in the history of bots…
8,3 million households, $5 billion in annual sales, $1 billion in subsidies. Count me in.
That’s half the Canada’s total households. So $2 billions in subsidies can lower the grocery prices by 23.7% for every single Canadian and allow those 23.7% of savings back into the economy. Mind blowing when you think about it.
As far as Avi Lewis, he’s not planning to use military budget, but instead tax the 1% pedophile class that has been robbing Canadians blind for decades.
So a government run entity cant be appreciably cheaper.
That’s simply bullshit.
Did you know that US runs the biggest government own grocery chain in the world? It’s literally in the law that they must have at least 23.7% savings compared to other stores. And wouldn’t you know, it actually works. Not only prices are a lot cheaper but the selection of goods is even better than many commercial chains.
That is on the new NDP leader’s platform.
3·8 months agoThanks for the mention. We have a new icon now.
I always prefer user created art, but since I have no artistic capabilities myself, LLM-generated is better than none to start with.
Updated the community icon to yours and given you the credit in the sidebar. Thank you!
1·8 months agoThey don’t explicitly ban torrenting, but they banned port forwarding in 2023 which heavily limits who you can connect to.
2·8 months agoThat he’s in the video and video is authentic.
It was confirmed by his parents.
Is the “elite media” now is trying to “cultivating public consent” as the article says, or - as you say - do they try “to find middle ground”?
Both. As you said in the first few words of your comment, my comment was also “Irrespective of the topic <…>” and instead a direct response to you, not the attached article.
Look at how corporate media tried to justify US illegally kidnapping a president of a sovereign country. It’s against both US and international law, but media tried to manufacture consent for it by saying that Maduro was a bad guy.
Now look at flight attendants union strike in Canada where corporate media represented the postion of the government, the airlines and called flight attendants unreasonable for inconveniencing the travelers by demaning that they get paid for full day of work instead of just when they are in the air. That’s clear anti-worker reporting that hurts working people and defends corporate interests.
Overall, they have a strong bias in narratives <…>
Advocacy journalism is popular for a reason. When average corporate media tries to find middle ground position between someone working 2 jobs to survive and someone owning 10 yacths, it’s refreshing to hear postions that represent 99% instead of 1% of people.
In this particular case, they are pretty open about what they stand for: https://breachmedia.ca/about/
<…> it’s by definition neither independent nor quality media imo.
It’s objectively independent as they are not funded by any single interest group, but actual readers. That doesn’t mean they don’t have their own opinions and perspectives.
Best is subjective and recommendations would depend on your use case. Iceraven is my primary.
I never understood comments like these. Why not just crosspost yourself?
Their updates are slower than some other forks, but it is getting regular updates.
