    This ignorance is being manufactured. We’re not “forgetting”. There are many propaganda stations, some quite literally funded by russia to promote ignorance like this in America.

    Until corporate news admits that, and therefore its own role in it, this ignorance will continue to grow.

    And to be clear; corporate news will never admit that.

      The irony was during COVID-19, the Russian population believed their own disinformation, leading to atrocious infection and death rates.

      We don’t need Russian disinformation or funding. The Secretary of Health and the worlds biggest podcaster will happily disinform the public on spotify’s dime and entirely of their own accord.
