news@hexbear.net•With the recent ICE shooting, a Black Panther Party reformation makes itself known in PhiladelphiaEnglish
12·21 hours agoI wouldn’t say it’s an excuse. I think that formulation is exactly what Marx had when he was writing about the Proletariat. The formation of the proletariat can’t be disconnected from enclosure. Peasants and surfs stripped of their lands and corralled into city centers to work shoulder to shoulder. Sharing their experiences together. In some sectors of the labor force that’s still true, but as we more and more embody a service and information economy, the days of working in tightly packed spaces have faded. No one has idle conversation via work email. You might not even talk to people outside your department in the same company. Capitalism wants nothing more than to atomize all of us, into little work cubes, alone for hours at a time, with no time to stick our head out of the hole and see whose around us, and if they’re ok.

World News@lemmy.ml•Could we have a rule that prohibits commenting about Media Bias Fact Check?
6·10 days agoYeah I struggled to find another way to phrase it, because even the idea of being critical is highly dependent on your perspective. You have to have a level of skepticism I think to even begin to be critical. Liberalism is constantly working to ensure that you never become skeptical of its own institutions or ideas. Deeply uncurious might be a more accurate way to say it, or passive consumers of media. The whole phenomenon of fact checking and media bias is rooted in things like Russiagate and Covid misinformation.
This idea of objective truth or empirical truth as applied to factuality in media attempts to collapse the realm of what is possible or to narrow the scope of reality. Its attached to liberal obsession with institutions and ideas and their infallibility. Take the the Washington Post. Media Bias Fact Check says it has a LEFT-CENTER BIAS. Meanwhile, you have Jeff Bazos preventing them from endorsing a candidate and then saying their opinion pages will “defend free market and ‘personal liberties’”. But liberals will not recall that, they’ve probably forgotten these things even happened. To them WaPo isn’t a conservative rag so its good. Even the idea of what is Left is part of the ruling ideas. Marxism, Marxism-Leninism, Anarchism, are all regulated to fringe status, deeply equated with fascism to dilute their character, with the goal of excluding them from the “Left” category, which is how you arrive at “LEFT-CENTER BIAS”.

11·10 days agoTrustworthy by whose standards?
From Marx’s The German Ideology: “The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas … The class which has the means of material production at its disposal, has control at the same time over the means of mental production, so that thereby, generally speaking, the ideas of those who lack the means of mental production are subject to it.”
You can’t just say “You believe trustworthy means you shouldn’t read something uncritically” when we are LITERALLY talking about what the nature of TRUST and FACT even is, and where people and institutions get their AUTHORITY from.
This is what I mean! You can’t even imagine a situation where a “media bias” site Isn’t BIASED and doesn’t skew their results based on that bias, resulting in the “additional information” CONTRIBUTING TO BIAS.
They all have bias and yet ARE THE ARBITER’S OF BIAS. Do you understand the contradiction now? They do nothing to help a person to be critical because they launder their authority, which is given to them by the uncritical masses, to distribute their bourgeois bias under the guise of neutrality!

10·11 days agoDonald dies right before midterms. Republicans sweep but due to his death have deeply fictionalized and can’t agree on anything.
They embalm him and set him on perminate display in a moslem built near the Washington Monument.
Democratic leaders are sweaped up in show trials as a distraction from the Republican in infighting.
JD Vance has no riz and isn’t able to obsorb the vacuum left by Trump. The conservative internet outrage factory schisms on anti-israel lines.
The AI bubble finally pops leading to a worse crisis then 2008. Socialists are more prepared for this crisis and see membership numbers rise off the agitation.
As the tech industry implodes federated services see a huge migration off the dying infrastructure.
A lone wolf takes out a major political figure.

World News@lemmy.ml•Could we have a rule that prohibits commenting about Media Bias Fact Check?
281·11 days agoThe fact that you think its a good idea shows that you believe, even if you are not aware, that your positions are neutral when they’re not. If you are not investigating your own bias why should we bother with comments telling you what is or isn’t biased? All that’s signaling to you is if something is “good” or “bad” because your position is “good” and not biased at all.
I, and others with my perspective, understand that everything has a bias, and you need to be able to read something critically to find that bias. These bias checking sites are not doing that, they are only looking to ensure people who share your view, the natural or default perspective, or the neoliberal perspective, do not read the “wrong” content.
