Since the first 7 posts on my feed were all about Christmas, lemme just throw my 2 cents in...
Fuck Christmas.
The month-long build up doesn't induce anticipation.
It induces dread.
I just want this shit fucking OVER.
NewsGuard has long been Republican-biased.
Just look at how they rate The New Republic: more biased than Phil Anschutzβs DC Examiner and far more biased than NRO, WSJ, and Reason.
Now, in their usual effort to work the refs, Republicans are accusing it of bias. Of course.
Democrats have been far far far too slow to deal with tactics like this.
We should fight it now.
Say NewsGuard is run by a Republican, and point out how its metrics favor fake rightwing newspapers designed to ape real news, like DC Examiner and Reason.

lol a βleft-leaning independent who founded American Lawyer magazineβ
Thatβs what we call a conservative! American Lawyer and Court TV. Heβs a corporate media exec.
Left-leaning. My lord. Itβs two conservatives who run NewsGuard!
Dems need to say stuff like this.
Honestly, the Fediverse has changed how I interact on other forms of social media.
Because my mentality is, βOh, what if the algorithms hate me? Boo bloody hoo. I got this other corner of social media, without algorithmsβso I donβt give a damn.β
I donβt care if Instagram or Pinterest donβt like pictures of my turkey dinner.
