    I actually really like this poster. I have chatted at them a couple of times, and they seem like a good person.

    I also wanted to say that - of course, people have biases. To me, the positive element of the heightened awareness and discourse around bias in the last few decades is that we understand that everyone has it, not that you should go seek out some kind of perfect, non-existent, unbiased source…

    When I see Al Jazeera is reporting on an issue or an element of a larger topic in a way that has not been served by western media, that doesn’t mean I forget where Al Jazeera’s funding comes from. It does remind me that human beings do journalism at Al Jazeera, and if I disregard all of the information being served there instead of weighing it up to the best of my ability, then I am failing. I think that I extend the same attitude towards contributions of ☆Youngthugs☆ and others doing this news-sharing.

      I agree with you. Disagreement in views isn’t a comment about an individual themselves.

      That doesn’t change a pattern of posting and comments that are distinctly pro-Russian, pro-China.

        Please explain to the class why you keep trying to paint posting factual information about the state of the world nefarious.
