Comment on BREAKING: Trump's New Ukraine Peace Plan is a DISASTER
tuff_wizard@aussie.zone 12 hours agoIt’s perfectly reasonable gripe. Where are the sources? Who the fuck is pod save America? Why should I trust them?
At least with an article it’s easy to confirm their claims by skimming a few articles on the same topic from different sources.
If you’ve just dumped 90 mins into listening to someone’s version of events, are you really going to spend 90 minutes more listening to another podcast to see if they telling the truth? Even if they are being honest, they’ll have their own bias’. Just as bad as religiously listening to any other media source.
But we do share some common ground; a special community where you can post podcast links with impunity sounds like a good idea.

If you’re so great at this lead by example. POST MORE!! Show me how its done, my upvote button is ready. In fact theres a great community that you should love, seeing as you like reading and only reading so much, c/rtfa, great little community project thats all but abandoned. Probably because people like me don’t have the time to always be reading everything, alla i posted a podcast today.
If you want the rule changed disallowing podcasts on this community talk to the mods, until then suck it up. Besides that, its a legitimate form of information dissemination, no matter what you think of the medium.
There are more news organisations out there than Guardian and ABC, you don’t need to implicitly trust an outlet, remain skeptical but open. If you think a piece, (be it article, podcast, video, or even an opera) hasn’t got correct information, make a comment calling attention to that content. But you can’t do that because you haven’t listened to it, and you’re just randomly hating on the medium in general, which is an absurdity.
The sources are, US gov, Russian gov, Ukrainian gov, and translator the podcasters used, i’m sure theres more. They’re reacting to a plan that should be quite easy for you to find. Google it mate.
I would block you, but i want to see if you actually start posting more. Shit be a partner mod with me on the podcast community idea, seems like there’d fireworks in the comment sections!
