It’s up to the reader to determine if what’s left out is left out because of Wikileaks’ biases or because Wikileaks didn’t want to make a claim it wasn’t 100% sure of

😠

So its more of our trust of the publisher, not the presence of an anonymous source.

My point is, that we all trust WL to verify them, files and the person doing the leak.

And we all trust cops to cover their own ass at the expense of the people

Honestly trust is the big issue. The mainstream establishment has pissed all over the people’s trust, because they’re so use to the people trusting them blindly because who’s going to prove them wrong.

Well, sometimes you need to rock the boat a little to remind them that it can still sink

People get lazy in peace time. Same applies to people getting lazy with their sources.

But with the advent of television & the internet it’s become very easy to prove them wrong. If a corrupt Deputy Marshal showed up to your home and shot your son back in 1850 who’d ever believe you? It’s your word against a badge, and people had trust in the authorities. Today all you have to do is point a camera at the corrupt Marshal and bam, instant evidence that can be uploaded to the eyes of millions in a matter of seconds

And well, we have the issue with the lie getting published first

Like just publish the lie, and then the correction which will get alot less vieww

For the first time in History the people can legitimately hold the establishment accountable for their lies

Because the crazy inaccuracies and lies from the mainstream media have always existed, they’ve just been impossible to prove.

Not arguing here though. Its just that the people are not using that ability

And the media is taking advantage of that

Sure more people are waking up

Because that farmer who’s been misrepresented & Libeled in a big city paper. Who the fuck is going to have heard his side of things. He had no way of speaking out to as large an audience

Actualy, I mean, people are waking up. So thats good.

And well... We might be seeing a shift here

Shift away from MSM to more independant news outlets

But today that guy can get on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and speak out

And if enough people care his voice will be heard by more than the 20 people he knows personally

He could reach an audience of millions

Thing is, that is the potential, what Id like to see more, is the awareness of that potential.

ANd well... Even then, the person cant rely on the internet alone. FB and Twitter do censor shit.

Who knows how many people got censored like Lindsay Shepherd did 90 years ago, but today, all it takes is a social media post getting into the correct hands and all of a sudden boom

Ah that is true, we still had to depend on well... Commentators commenting on them

But well, future seems brighter than it was a few months ago

According to Chairman Nunes that memo was just part 1

Another one on the State Department is in the works

Oh fuck, electric boogaloo?

Like #MeToo has blown up so much that some extreme feminists are finally giving a voice to Bill Clinton’s accusers. Even CNN employees were retweeting an article that his accusers weren’t just right wing nutjobs.

You mean people doubted them in the beginning?

Oh fuck you meant Clinton

For some reason I saw Cosby

Well, to be honest, most of the accusers are now already quite successful in their own right, they will stand to loose alot if they were proven to be liars.

Social media has given the people an incredible amount of power. 2016 was the first year where a majority of the kids who grew up with social media were eligible to vote and look what happened. The most popular Republican candidate was a complete outsider and the Democrats had to cheat to prevent Bernie, an independent, from winning their primary.

To be honest, Trump was an outside to the party, but not to the people.

I mean, people knew him, he had alot of brand recognition.

Shit like what happened to Ron Paul in 2012 can’t happen again

Was he the independant from that election cycle?
