how is this so accurate?
I have scrolled through the Post and some remarks.
Firstly, I wish to address that the political idiom between countries and the meaning of a word can vary alot Ergo, in Europe the word " Liberal" can mean anything, so without context, it becomes meaningles. And the same goes for many USA wordings like " socialist and " left and right winged".
As this is a worldwide community, let's start to respect that words and meanings vary. The USA has some specific issues that other counties simply do not on the same scale. The same goes the other way around, ofcourse.
Many counties have different experiences, history and so, you most definitely can not project your political ideologicall meaning to other countries, and think you're going to be understood or have a good conversation.
Secondly, about misinformation. Not all media bias websites that are suggested are helpful to identify misinformation, but they can be of help. So, I suggest that, while the poster of any content should do his own research first, before blindly posting something , that person is mainly responsible for this info. And the whole community should share the responsibility for checking it out, before parroting a remark. Finally, the mods have the end repsoniblilty for this community, hence they could do a final check if needed.
Thirdly, the main source of misinformation are proganandists. Having a rational or factual conversation is impossible, simply because their goals are different. They want discord, arguments, emotional responses, so the only solution is to ban them. The bigger problem with propagandist ( bots/ botfarms/ dolls etc is to recognise them. That's sometimes hard to do. But they all have one similarity, and that is their INTENT.
" Propaganda is communication that is primarily used to influence or persuade an audience to further an agenda, which may not be objective and may be selectively presenting facts to encourage a particular synthesis or perception, or using loaded language to produce an emotional rather than a rational response to the information that is being presented. Propaganda can be found in a wide variety of different contexts.
Here some extra websites for additional factchecking:

Yes, I do get that my contribution could have been better, more inclusive, less biased, better nuanced etc. On the other hand this is a public forum, if you can't find an ounce of patience to try to understand others, you might not belong here. Also if you are a nihilist, your remarks carry no weight without context. And if you feel happy about being a destructionalist, good for you, just don't harass others to agree and keep it to yourself.

An interesting counteresponse to Golinkin
Tnx for sharing.
Also found this piece by Latvian Gvment about some disinformation from Golikin, concerning so called Nazi commemorations monuments of the Latvian Legion.
Golinkin falsely depicts the Latvian Legion as Nazis and Holocaust collaborators.
Seems there is pattern here.

You learn nothing today or any other day, you're just another Putin troll.
Indeed, he keeps spamming his anti- western feelings. One thing is certain, this "comrade" is persistent.

Far-right movements ( and neo-nazis) exist all-over the world and in every continent, unfortunately. But it's also all about context, which I'm completely missing here. The right is on the rise everywhere, it seems.
Nothing new under the sun, except that the way it's described is as if the West is " whitewashing this" (does this mean the East is not?!l), is rather exaggerated and one sided imo; and favourable to Russian propaganda.
The Asov regiment, history and political ideas have been covered many many times in Western media, no secrets there. And so have many other right-winged developments been equally covered.
The myth that far-right zealots run Ukraine is Russian propaganda.
The West’s inability to properly understand the Azov movement has led to the spread of damaging anti-Ukraine propaganda in the media, Alexander Ritzmann writes."
They should also expose the extreme-right networks and actors in Russia, which do exist in much larger numbers than in Ukraine.
Because ignoring dangerous organisations like the Russian Imperial Movement or the Wagner private military company while focusing on and confusing Azov plays perfectly into Putin’s war-propaganda strategy and only serves to hurt the Ukrainian people they are trying to protect.

How about we punish the people who actually still own slaves instead?
This.
I wish ppl would focus on what's actually happening now, then on what happened centuries ago.
Mind you, I'm not downplaying what happened, just putting the discussion in a broader and more direct context.
According to this site( ILO) there are approximately 50 million slaves. This might be a low estimate.
Edited.
Being a south american country, this guy could be out in a couple of years and able to run for president again.
We shall see..But to me I'm not sure USA is doing a better job with Trump. I don't get how he still isn't in Prison.
Also imo, the privileged have access to better lawyers, and justice isn't always blind or served equally in this world.
added: It's good that the ex Panemenian president was found out for corruption and send to jail. And I really hope they tackle "corruption & faul play " in governments, and also in ngos, institutions and businesses.
Btw, technically, Lula was acquitted.
I suppose it's the "we ised to be together, it used to be our continent, now we're separated".
Yeah and it might have something to uniting continents with Communism ( or Sino- Russian imperialism) as in the end you see the Hammer and the Sickle.
Fox News has been criticized for its use of fear-mongering and its presentation of opinions as facts.
I believe that it is important to have a diversity of news sources, so that we can get a variety of perspectives. However, it is also important to be critical of the sources we consume, and to be aware of their biases.
Exactly.
Thanks for answering the(se) question. I like how you phrase everything in terms like quality, content, being unbiased, be kind. And by giving some examples, though I'm not familiar with some of those (USA? ) newssites you mentioned.
I think the majority could work with these guidelines. And if not, like you said, it will be a learning curve via a case-by-case situation.
You haven't read my comments properly or aren't understanding the nuance, I am afraid.
It's not news, if you want someone's opinion on a given subject, you can find it in a community that share that bias. World news should be purely news.
Many news is ( more or less) biased ,and thus is therefore (more or less) an opinion.
So what is" considered purely news", is the question we are trying to answer here, isn't?
If editorials and opinion pieces are banned, it solves a lot of issues.
What issues exactly? About being biased? Any piece could be flagged or described as Op-ed. As long as that is made clear somehow, it should be ok, imo.
Also , many controversial articles are usually heavily opinionated, but are generally presented as " trustworthy news" .
Thanks for all the work. Your intent appears generally good, imo. Always good to have honest normal discussions and exchanging culture and viewpoints.
I also have a couple of questions for consideration:
How will this statement:
"That means that hate speech, racism, anti-LGBTQ+, and trolling will not be tolerated."
work out with fox news?
Also fox is not then only (non unbiased) mainstream news outlet, which might conflict with your intended goal. And, what about spreading intentional mis- or disinformation ?
OP is a China shill. Review his post and comment history
Yips, his user's descriptiom translated:
"The Maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, resulting in the almost complete redistribution of land among the peasants"
But, he forgot to add that Mao did this while forcing tens of millions Chinese farmers into starvation, during the Great Leap Forward.
Lol what? You talking about the bong video you’re replying
Of course not. That's just actually a funny bong video. Lol. I reacted to the meme
To me this meme comes across as fascist , rascist and prejudiced.
You have become 200%, what you supposedly hate so much.
" Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you."
Hope so too. Here's the (only) movie poster afaik.
Add.Note at the end of the article are some impressions: One fan who had just watched the film at a cinema in Tokyo said the film was the “culmination” of Miyazaki’s anime output.
“I couldn’t digest it all by just watching it once … I feel like I want to watch it again immediately,”
In Mexico, violence against journalists has risen to the point that the country is now a sad record-holder. Multiple organizations, including Reporters Without Borders (RSF), have deemed Mexico the deadliest country for journalists in North and South America. In 2022, Mexico was the country with the most murdered journalists worldwide (11), according to RSF.
In addition to murders, human rights organizations such as Article 19 also track daily attacks against journalists, and found that in June 2022, a journalist or media institution was attacked every 14 hours in Mexico.
Article 19 estimates that many attacks on journalists in Mexico originate from state or local authorities. Since 2007, the Mexican administration — be it at the federal, state, communal or local level — is the most common aggressor against media. In the first half of 2022, authorities committed 128 attacks, or about 38,67% of all attacks the organization documented.
Like the meme says: thats what an AI would say. Lol
