1 year agoNo, MSM aren’t all shills for governments, it’s just that most of the time the corporations they’re owned by and the government have a shared interest in keeping up the status quo because they both depend on it. That’s the problem with 99% of conspiracy theories, they but the blame on a cabal of evil people acting behind the curtain, which in most cases blatantly false (there is no Jewish/Reptiloid/Illuminati NWO conspiracy) and where there’s a grain of truth to them they completely ignore the structural reasons that lead to people and institutions doing bad shit, i.e. systems of power which the actors that benefit from them want to keep alive
I hope that if that actually happens they’ll find no volunteers to actually mod those subs and realize they’ll actually have to hire and pay the people that actually makes their site usable
