This part did sound pretty concerning

Further, they have frequently promoted conspiracy theories and misinformation regarding Covid-19, such as this A DARPA-FUNDED IMPLANTABLE BIOCHIP TO DETECT COVID-19 COULD HIT MARKETS BY 2021. The Covid vaccine does not alter DNA. They have also published conspiracy theories related to 9/11 and Chemtrails. Finally, they frequently rely on Russian government sources like RT News and Sputnik.

But I love getting my news from far-left conspiracy theorists.

I wouldn’t trust anything at MB/FC. I trust Alan Macleod’s work, though. If you want to actually understand the media, he wrote a book on it: Propaganda in the Information Age: Still Manufacturing Consent.

He edited that book, didn’t write it, but okay, I like him too. His work on propaganda about Venezuela is fantastic.

He edited that book, didn’t write it

It’s essentially a compilation of articles, and he wrote or co-wrote about half of them.

Holy propaganda batman!

The list of articles on that website is…extremely focused on one subject only.

Also, ProtonVPN has been infiltrated by the WEF.

Thanks to the way back machine we can see that they quietly erased Rosemary Leith’s bio of her affiliations with the WEF.

Now why would they do that?

“Infiltrated” seems like a clandestine action even though they just selected her to be on the board. It’s not like her having been on WEF council (“Chair of the World Economic Forum Global Agenda Council on the Future of Internet Security”) was a secret to people who made her a board member since it’s very available info.

I think especially right-wingers have made the WEF into some Jewish conspiracy theory and it has taken a life of its own so might just be bad PR. Tbh that seems like the simplest option. You don’t want to scare away the potential customers.

Why glad? They are also pretty bad. You also should not use them. They had a databreach and kept it a secret.

Israel is not “The Jews”. The biggest money coming into Israel is coming from Christians. And loads of Jews are anti-zionists
