does coverage of domestic protests to generate cred and then shits all over AES outside the imperial core
I remember him being absolute garbage when Evo Morales was illegally deposed
his Behind the Bastards podcast repeats every bullshit lie about communist “dictators”
I want to give him an out but it would be too easily interpreted as sectarianism
EDIT: plus his association with Bellingcat
There are tons of U.S. leftists who have bad takes on AES states, though. Not all of them can be feds. He’s for sure sus, but I don’t think there’s enough to definitively label him a fed.
Following the money is a useful investigative method, but it’s not conclusive in cases like this.
Say a journalist gets their work printed in a few publications and does some podcasting that brings in additional money. If one of those publications gets some nefarious federal dollars, how much impact does that have on the journalist’s work?
