This particular exchange to one side, it depresses me that Max Blumenthal/GZ gets airtime in this sub. We've got to be more discerning than that, folks. We're not going to find liberation by allying with a guy who denies China's oppression of the Uyghurs, denies chemical attacks by Assad, and spreads misinformation in Russia's favor with regard to Ukraine (in addition to regularly appearing on RT).

Blumenthal is not our friend.

(Side note: honestly had no idea Dana Bash is Jewish.)

Ugh these are typical neoliberal talking points that the mainstream uses to discredit the Grayzone journalists. He denied that there is a Uighur "genocide" (because we see what a genocide really looks like now). The "chemical attacks" in Syria were a false flag event by the very dodgy "white helmets" to try and draw the West in against Assad. Regarding the Ukraine proxy war the mainstream media is finally talking about Western provocation and the origins of the war. If this current genocide has taught us anything it's that we can't expect the western liberal media to tell us the truth on these matters of foreign conflict and western hegemony.
