The Guardian's always been pretty on point. As far as awful media sources go, I don't know why you'd select one that's relatively decent

TheGuardian is a stalwart defender of Israel. They went as far as claiming they verified video evidence of rape on october 7

Israel has this year admitted that no photo or video evidence of rape on october 7 exists.

TheGuardian is horribly unreliable and their double standards are palpable. For more info here is a great source dismantling their propaganda

Yeah, odd choice. The Guardian is one of the few remaining outlets with actual credible integrity

I never got the sentiment either. in fact I always found it to be among the best outlets. I'm a subscriber and I don't even live in an English speaking country, and this is my only news subscription - didn't find one that's better overall yet.

I am so disappointed that TheGuardian threw away their entire reputation to manufacture consent for genocide and nobody even remembers it.

Now I understand how they keep doing it after 9/11. Nobody even remembers the mass propagands campaigns even when presented with utterly damning evidence in hindsight.

Washington has been committing daytime civilian murder in Iraq on a regular enough basis. Why would that change anything? And under Trump of all things, the most vile sack of shit ever to scam people into voting for him?

No, Ukraine will get no help from there, we're going to have to step up in Europe and increase our support.
