GLENN GREENWALD—It is really hard to overstate how consequential and how nefarious this disinformation industry is. It received woefully inadequate attention until the emergence of these articles. It is one of the greatest threats to a free Internet yet manufactured. It is rapidly spreading as a result of the backing of some of the world’s most powerful governments and most influential neo-liberal billionaires. And without hyperbole or melodrama, its goal is nothing less than the end of the Internet as one of our last instruments for expressing and organizing meaningful dissent.

Fox News Leaked Videos Intended To Smear Tucker BACKFIRES!
11 minutes readNow that Fox News and Tucker Carlson have parted ways, the news host’s former employer is doing everything possible to smear him and explain the network’s reasoning for having to let him go. The latest – a private text message from Carlson and other videos leaked to liberal outfit Media Matters, designed to paint Carlson as a racist, has fallen flat and actually depicted Carlson in, if anything, a positive light. Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Carlson’s comments, including his curious appraisal of the difference between how white people and people of color fight.

Glenn Greenwald: The Elitist Corporate Media Attacks Populism
101 minutes readGLENN GREENWALD—If you go and study fascism in any first-year undergraduate college, you’re going to learn that one of its defining hallmarks, as implemented by Mussolini and then by Hitler, is the merger of corporate and state power, so that there’s no such thing as a private sector ever working at odds with the public sector.

JIMMY DORE—Jon Stewart is a comedy legend who pioneered an entirely new way to deliver scathing but also funny commentary on the news. But now he’s apparently decided to piss away all the credibility he built up by interviewing and giving a virtual tongue bath to war criminals Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice, whom he allows to spew transparently false narratives about the American war machine with nary a peep of disagreement. Jimmy and his panel of Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and The Grayzone’s Anya Parampil discuss Stewart’s embarrassingly cringe-worthy performance.

In less than half an hour Saby conclusively shows that the US (and much of the world) may be dying because the left in the US doesn’t really exist, and the rest of the West is not doing so well, either. To compound the problem, its devious incarnation, WOKE liberalism, constantly aggravates matters, by discrediting the true left. This doesn’t make the Right’s message much better, but, to WOKE liberals’ chagrin, it is the Right that is now increasingly saying what needs to be said.
