Given that the victors wrote the history, for the most part, what is truly accurate when you are talking about events prior to video/audio recordings?

If you're talking about the 2018 allegation. I don't remember that allegation being considered "credible.". If you have additional information since then, please link it for me and I will look at it.

Tool's members are pretty boring... Except Maynard .. Who plays in multiple bands, runs a winery/vineyard, runs several businesses, and yells at people to get off his lawn.....

Imo, pork is tea. In some places, people drink it more than water. It can be really fancy, or super simple. It's good when you make it with some sugar.

This doesn't help. It's victim blaming. The marching is the effort. People only have access to what they see and what they hear. If there are no marches, then what most people only see and hear is a curated narrative by the billionaires. The marches show others they aren't alone. If you truly want a progressive uprising, stop being a dick, and encourage those who are trying to win back our country from fascists.

Another democratic socialist victory – Angie Nixon in Florida – sends shock waves through party establishment
Reply in thread
This attitude is a cancer to progressive reform. Vote for the candidate with the better policies and you will have progressive reform in this country. "Electability" is literally the only argument liberals have at this point for picking centrists over left flank candidates. If that argument actually had validity: the left flank candidate wouldn't have won the primary; and the "electable" candidates would have previously won. Is there one centrist dem a majority of people even like?

CBS’s Gayle King Floored By DSA Candidate’s Claim She Isn’t Familiar With Hasan Piker: ‘You Don’t Know Who He is?’
Reply in thread
The liberals are trying to make an example out of Piker... To intimidate influencers, who typically rely on ads and support from the establishment to survive, from attacking the status quo. Piker doesn't do ads, relying on his subscriber base to fund his career. So they can't control his messaging with money, and are trying to do it by making him radioactive to the candidates he would support. The ultimate goal is to take away support provided by Piker for grassroots campaigns, so those candidates will have to toe the DNC line, or risk losing support from the establishment.
So regardless how you feel about Piker personally, or his views, it is clear he is trying to elevate progressive candidates so they don't have to compromise themselves for liberal support. We should all be supporting those efforts if we truly want to amplify a progressive political wave.

Was trying to be objective about it. Water is inherently neutral in flavor. Anything that is less than neutral wouldn't be worth drinking. Now what that is will be different for each person.
Edit: also, i don't say anything about cooking or using a liquid....i said drinking it. Your critique is inapplicable.

The childhood propaganda game is strong for the US. Most of those people lived through the height of an empire, which further reinforced the propaganda they were fed in their youths. They see Trump as the only one that isn't too weak to keep the empire going.
So, Trump is grifting them. He's a snake oil salesman selling continued relevance with no sacrifice from his faithful. These people are unable to admit they are wrong and that their childhood history lessons were sanitized.

Moderation conflict involving c/vegan
Reply in thread
Just because the company making money off of purchasers says it's good for cats. Doesn't mean it's good for cats. Other than one study that relied on surveyed answers from vegan pet owners, I haven't seen any evidence that a vegan diet is safe for cats.

More specifically, the billionaires controlling the "media." While a bare few legitimate media outlets still exist, the "media' the majority of the world sees is essentially edited propaganda for the billionaire class.

‘Saturday Night Live’ Sets Jack Black as Next Host, With Jack White as Musical Guest
Reply in thread
His musical partner made a joke about a Trump assassination on stage during a tour. There was backlash and they cancelled the remaining tour dates. Jack Black had said they will tour again in the future. His partner, Kyle, apologized. Looking to cancel Jack Black over that is, in my opinion, an overreaction.
