Chapo Traphouse?

goodbye.bsky.social•82 days ago

I would add Palestinians streamer Ray_Khay on Twitch, they translate Israeli news in real time and have great insight. ArunAnnow for all your South East Asian politics needs. Homozygoat, who mostly covers science and medicine but is very much a leftist. TofuGh0st who is on a break at the moment but

goodbye.bsky.social•82 days ago

Does the early morning time slot news coverage. Honorable mentions for QAA Podcast and Chapo if you're more inclined to podcasts.

A lot of these are pretty bad, Dem-hugging liberals, barely even reformist in a socialist sense

The US left needs to move left of liberalism and of social democracy too

Thank you for this. What do you think of Brian Tyler Cohen?

I would add Heather Cox Richardson - not a news outlet per se, but super informative and fact-based.

blowen.bsky.social•82 days ago

I was a devoted follower of hers on FB for years. I noticed immediately following Oct. 7 that she avoided writing about or talking about Biden's zionism. I asked a public question and was attacked by centrists. She could have taken the opportunity to discuss the history honestly, but she never has.

debchasse.bsky.social•81 days ago

Her expertise is American history… I wouldn’t expect her to write about zionism.

Whether Biden is a Zionist is a matter of opinion, and controversial in some circles, but you shouldn’t be attacked for asking a question.

blowen.bsky.social•81 days ago

Oh, I know. I learned a lot from her. I did expect her to at least discuss the history of the conflict in an unbiased manner since so many of her readers were asking about it.

Biden has publicly claimed that he's a zionist, so that isn't really a matter of opinion.

eleley.bsky.social•82 days ago

Perhaps @muellershewrote.bsky.social ? They tend to provide some good insight into current events.

jardinera.bsky.social•82 days ago

Along with the Breakdown, on Substack, and related podcasts.

Meidas Touch Network!

thetungstenwire.com•82 days ago

would add:

@theserfstv.bsky.social
@mattbinder.bsky.social

Personally I would remove
MintPress News and BreakThrough News as their funding is pretty worrisome or suspicious.

MintPress News spread misinformation that covered up the genocide of Syrians.
