Sup! Guys, I came across this on Instagram and also on other social media apps. I wanted to ask that is it a real thing done by Serbs or is it like that Uyghur “genocide” or Tibetan “genocide” thing the Westerns keep talking about?

    Globalresearch.ca is a mixed bag with fantastic and poorly written articles. The further one gets into Alternative media and away from sites like MintPressNews and Antiwar.com the more likely one will find less regulated websites. They allow for more outside perspectives, but they let to less quality control. These types of websites will leave discernment up to the readers.

      So, it’s exactly what I called it, a shit-where-you-eat “free market of ideas” mix of lies and truths with no distinction whatsoever between which is which. Can we really not use quality-controlled sources? Do we really have to use sources that use Odysee for their video hosting, and tell you easily refuted nonsense within the first ten paragraphs, as SWPRS does? Whatever happened to using books as sources? Anna’s Archive is still a thing, thank God. You can download an EPUB of Parenti’s To Kill A Nation there. I just did right now (yes, at 5 AM). If Parenti really does engage in genocide denial in that book like his critics say he does, is for me to find out, but I can at least trust that Parenti won’t waste my time more than I can trust whatever “wOoOobsites” CFgaussian is citing.

        I understand your mindset, but I have engage in the same sites as cfgaussian being globalresearch.ca, sott.net, Swiss Policy Research, The Grayzone, and CovertAction Magazine and found good information. I can understand your willing to find more mainstream sources though.
