davel , 5 months ago (edited 5 months ago) I think it’s a systemic issue that can’t be addressed in terms of individual mods. Most instances are admined by Anglosphere labor aristocrats of the imperial core, who have little to no class consciousness. They also have an underdeveloped media literacy while believing they have exemplary media literacy. Search for “media bias” and you’ll find tons of bullshit media horseshoe theory charts like the one below, which conflate enlightened centrism with factualness. Look at !world which uses Media Bias/Fact Check as their North star, which is run by a member of the Council on Foreign Relations [not the same person after all]. https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/7dfc5791-c9a1-4952-a90c-b6c91314d0f7.jpeg They subscribe to the new post-Trump, “post-truth” media literacy curriculum, a curriculum that was paid for and crafted by the US military-industrial complex: New Media Literacy Standards Aim to Combat ‘Truth Decay’ This week, the RAND Corporation released a new set of media literacy standards designed to support schools in this task. The standards are part of RAND’s ongoing project on “truth decay”: a phenomenon that RAND researchers describe as “the diminishing role that facts, data, and analysis play in our political and civic discourse.” Few of these people have read Inventing Reality or Manufacturing Consent. They tend to stay within the Global North corporate Overton window, not recognizing the bubble they’re in.
