Same. There was some initial confusion when I first switched over to Lemmy that resulted in the creation of superfluous accounts. I am better now thank you.
I won't name any specific organizations, but the upshot is that you need to consume a variety of news sources from different countries and in different formats. It also pays to get into very specifically focused news organizations.
That's a fair take and may well be accurate. I am no expert and accordingly don't have a strong opinion either way, and that's leaving aside the rather obvious point that most/many of our so-called "experts" keep getting it wrong in the first place.
Remember when Kyiv was going to fall in a matter of days, then that got adjusted into a matter of weeks and then months and now here we are a year and a half later?
The loud and clear lesson from that is that the so-called experts often don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
Right, no doubt, but still totally irrelevant to the fact that if you're of a certain age, Hulk Hogan is way more famous than the Tiger King guy and Dog The Bounty Hunter.
I'm not here to defend his historical significance; that's something you brought in and has nothing to do with my position.

It was meant to preclude those who had served in the confederate army and government from holding elected federal office, so in practice, at the time at least, a prior conviction for insurrection was not required. That said, it's not clear how it would apply to Trump.
This doesn't mean what you seem to think it means. It's not the case that Russia is somehow holding back and has huge additional reserves and resources that it can throw at the conflict. The Russian military isn't about to collapse or anything, but it's not doing great either and has largely been exposed as far weaker than was previously supposed.
No, you shouldn't do it because it's stupid. If you had real arguments you would use them, but you don't, so instead you trot out this garbage. It's a sign of intellectual weakness and dishonesty.
