now that can be used to collect texts quickly and for free to scan through.
2) Academics are more dishonest than I thought in their books targeting mass audiences.
3) Some on the left (far left) really hate progressives because they see progressives as BSers who are creating more problems just for politics in an us vs them dichotomy that the right is accused of doing.
4) I underrated Noam Chomsky because he calls out the large corporate control of the media and how they control what news stories are ran and from what angle the stories are reported, often based upon the interests of the advertisers and those who run the media. I don’t agree with a lot of things he has said but he nailed the media decades ago.
