Since the 1980's, people like Chomsky have been warning the world that the entire western media landscape is intentionally biased and Stanford/Bowling-Green study proved it in 2024 -- there are no preferrable sources, only narratives

    If the genocide has proven anything on the matter is that we can't trust any media outlet. We've had western media outlets gastlighting us to our face while we were exposed to real footage of the livestreamed genocide. We've been told that the police are defending us from terrorists at home, and see in the footage it's peaceful pro-Palestine protestors. We can't take shit at face value because the media promote whatever is in the interest of its owners, whether this is a state or a billionaire you have good reason to be critical.

    Can confirm the subtitles are fairly accurate, but they are a few seconds out of sync in parts. (Based on the first half)

    Edit: confirmed for the whole thing now.

    Sadly this is not always the case. I've seen videos with inflammatory subtitles that are COMPLETELY detached from what's actually said in the clip. And other times, they are translated in good faith but have mistakes (such as not understanding colloquial expressions) that significantly alter the meaning or even flip it.
