I disagree there. People can only work from the information they are presented with. The problem is with the establishment and how they protect their own.

That was true in the stone age. Today everyone has access to all the information and they can make up their minds. If they don’t - it’s on them.

You have to be pretty naïve to think everyone takes the time to get good information. Murdoch has built an empire on the exact opposite of this premise. He seems to be doing ok out of it.

Yeah I’m sorry but if you’re getting your media from Murdoch then that’s on you. The fact that him and his publications are essentially propaganda for the conservative party is public knowledge. If you haven’t absorbed that from the ether then you’re a particularly unaware person.

That’s on people who “don’t have time”.

UK Politics

!uk_politics@feddit.uk

Create post

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don’t post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
