minus-squaretakeda@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-23 hours agoThe quotes are apt, as they never were truly liberal. They existed to capitalize on that market and to guide liberals to do what their owners want. Look how for example they ridicule progressives like Bernie or AOC, how they ignored net neutrality during Obama and trump.

If you want reliable news sources support non profit ones.
