I actually took the time to read through the article, now I wish I hadn’t. The whole thing reads like a spy novel conspiracy theory so I had to look up the site… and sure enough, they are actually rated as very low on factual reporting based on their frequent conspiracy theories. I do find it interesting that their rating is also “Far-Left Biased”,makes me feel like this whole article was an attempt to shift that back towards center.
Then again, it was also expected. OP posts at least one article a day weakly attempting to bash the Biden administration, so this is par for the course.
The theory in the article isn’t even a new one, and hasn’t been strongly dismissed.
Just because Biden is better than Trump doesn’t mean he’s a holy Saint. It’s fair to be open to discussions even if you don’t like what’s being discussed.
He was credible, back in the day. Unfortunately, sometimes people go crazy, get bought, convert to evil cults, or otherwise become not-credible-anymore.
Hahaha “he was credible” until he said something you peopel don’t like of course. Don’t kid yourself, back in the day you would say exactly this about every other thing he said.
I’d use the same argument as you, had I not seen a person loose all the credibility very recently.
There was a respected molecular geneticist in czechia. She was not only the head of a private lab, but acted as a forensic expert for the court. When the covid hit, her lab has developed a new, unique way, to test for it. Then there was a conflict with the government, who temporarily banned her lab from conducting the tests. (Governments banning private labs from testing for covid was a thing in europe for some reason)
All of a sudden she started to claim sars-cov2 was artificially made, without providing any relevant evidence. The disinformation media outlets quickly took notice, decided to take advantage of her reputation, and made her a posterchild for all the covid related conspiracy theories. Things progressed very fast from this point on.
Long story short, she’s been a guest in an interview conducted by a religious cult recently, in which she has shunned her entire professional life, and proceeded to explain how our reality is just a simulation, and we have to steer clear from the bad aliens, trying to prevent us from increasing our vibrations, to enter the 5th dimension.
It took 2,5 years for her to go from a respected scientist to publicly shilling for a literal cult.
How the hell it is even extrapolating? The guy said that one woman he know went into some rabbit hole and this is somehow EVIDENCE that completely different person who just happens to be the person that guy wanted to discredit is the same case?
Thats not even anecdotal evidence that’s complete non seqitur (and bizarre tier of slander).
The author’s evidence is that he has none, therefore it’s the perfect operation. Assertions presented without evidence may be dismissed without evidence.
It’s fair to be critical of Hersh’s use of anonymous sources, but it was those same anonymous sources that enabled him to cover the so-called “weapons of mass destruction” and “nuclear materials” used to justify the invasion of Iraq. It’s not like this article is coming from a journalistic non-entity. Hersh has a pretty stellar record as far as journalism uncovering government corruption.
Tell me you’re young without telling me you’re young.
Mint press is the publisher. The author is the important bit here. Sy Hersh is responsible for breaking lots of stories, and you should recognize his name.
He’s probably the last of the independent journalists.
And Sy Hersh has been criticized by a number of journalists for falling down a conspiracy rabbit hole in recent years, with his reporting on the nordstream attack being a major example.

The author appears to be credible: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seymour_Hersh

He’s been considered crazy after pretty much every article he has written.
Evidence of heinous acts by government typically doesn’t surface until years later.

So, based on your anecdotal evidence of completely unrelated person you will discredit just Hersh or every other human writing anything too?
If you can’t extrapolate one situation from another, we can’t help you.

Idon’t necessarily agree with him, but I can follow his point and the example that was provided.
This is feeling like an argument in bad faith.

And the torture of prisoners in Iraq, as well.

I remember the same criticisms coming out when the torture story came out.
And then the images came out.
When you criticize the US, there are a lot of people that will insist that you’re wrong, and crazy for thinking the US could ever do bad stuff.
No need for ageism.
