  • the article you're talking about reads like a case of "our holy narrative-correcting taskforce vs their pagan misinformation agents"

    [bad actors] put in the effort to build reputation..., mixing legitimate page edits with the more politically sensitive ones

    through subtle changes like casting doubt on the objectivity of pro-Western accounts

    they also mention adding links from Russian state-owned news, but the article doesn't indicate that those things happen in the same incidents though mentioning it in the same sentence is certainly an attempt to conflate them. It's one thing to remove insufficiently reliable sources, correcting misrepresented facts, and banning the wreckers that consistently produce it, but I think there is an issue if validly-sourced edits are being censored by "bias adjusters" (NPOV purposes withstanding) just because the content is deemed to have been written by a suspected bad actor.

  • couldn’t help to find Hitler unlikable

    I think you meant, to quote Orwell himself:

    I should like to put it on record that I have never been able to dislike Hitler.

    More on the list in question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orwell%27s_list

    There is a notable and obvious overlap in Orwell’s notebook between many of 1940s London’s prominent gay, Jewish and anti-colonial public figures and the accused “cryptos.” Orwell’s bigoted commentaries fill his suspects notebook. Jews are clearly labeled (“Polish Jew,” “English Jew,” “Jewess”) whilst others were mislabeled (“Charlie Chaplin — Jewish?”). The African-American bass singer and future civil rights activist Paul Robeson finds himself in Orwell’s list with the note “very anti-white,” whilst the half-Jewish poet Stephen Spender is damned as a “sentimental sympathiser… tendency towards homosexuality.”

    It'll always be funny that the dude who wrote something like 1984 was such an eager proto-McCarthyite snitch for the propaganda unit of the British Foreign Office.

  • Exclusive: US to send depleted-uranium munitions to Ukraine

  • Yeah that's a silly article. Strange that a supposed "tankie" would post something that pushes the Chinese lab leak conspiracy though, especially from an outlet run by an NYT liberal like Bari Weiss.
