These bourgeois outlets have always been boosters for imperialism, and there’s no reason to believe they’ll suddenly change. The media figures who pushed for the Iraq war got promotions and are still working today, while people like Chris Hedges are blacklisted for life.

in the meantime i get blacklisted for asking my colleagues if our work was a detriment to humanity (software development for online gambling) and i get blacklisted for reporting my employer for retribution to my state's labor relations board; i had to move to the other side of the country to find work again.
