I’m with you on this. After the big Reddit hate sub quarantine a few years back, I started including /pol/ in my list of websites to check when a big geopolitical event is happening because I don’t trust Reddit et al. to give me the “complete” story anymore. If you read with a skeptical eye, it can be surprisingly informative.
I actually find these alternate sites useful for monitoring the latest foreign propaganda because my spouse is from a country with a hostile relationship to the U.S. and consumes most of her news in her native language, which is full of misinformation. I can now more clearly understand where she gets her opinions from sometimes and we can talk it out.
