 The fact that the second assassination attempt on former President Donald #Trump was almost not covered at all in the European media and only tendentiously in the #US media shows that the media sector has long been subsumed into the propaganda machine of the power complex. It is up to us to process and discuss information responsibly and to generate a fruitful public space. #nostr #freedomofspeech

 Why is anyone believing anything any media says is true anymore? Unless it comes from an individual who continuously works to self verify  events for themselves. Then helps others to discover the truth independently for themselves to self verify too. Earning the trust of others with a track record of honesty and integrity with practically no faults, or retractions

Anything reported anywhere by any media outlet should be considered a lie by default. For they have all proven themselves too many times to be guilty of promoting propaganda. 

The best you will ever get from them is a half truth, or miraculously an accurate weather report every once in awhile. That is about it. 

When it comes to the big stuff like this. Who the fuck knows what happened. Nothing is trustworthy with our senses anymore. If the topic interests you then dive deep. Just know you are going to dig through some deep shit. That concludes with you will never likely truly know with absolute certainty what happened.
