Moreover, Jimmy Dore is always an attention whoring misinformation shitstain who has absolutely no interest in facts, or anything redeemable.

I've never seen his show as I prefer my news in written form, but this seems highly unlikely to me. He is extremely far left, yet taking stances that are extremely unpopular among the majority of that group. It seems quite more likely he strongly believes what he is saying than that he would shill for republican talking points as a well known radical leftist

The left for the most part have dropped free speech and anti-military-interventionism from their platform, and refuse to recognize vaccination as a bodily autonomy issue, there are a few left that are still absolutist about freedom, including myself. Jimmy Dore strikes me as one of these also, like Taibbi, Johnstone, and a few others

If you listen to him you will see that he promotes misinformation that is spread primarily by the right, not the left. He uses the same talking points and so-called secret sources that the right use. The right are also criticizing military support for Ukraine. The right have been spreading the COVID hoax claims and anti-vax BS. Rachel Maddow was the last properly left-leaning commentator, and you easily contrast her amazing approaches with Dore's misinformation for the benefit of the .01% and the right.

Rachel Maddow😂 God I hope you are joking, she is the left's version of Tucker Carlson

No - she didn't spread misinformation. She offered excellent reports.

'Disinformation and misinformation propaganda puppet' is literally Carlson's job description. No one knows what he actually believes, as he's 24/7 misinformation talking points for the right. Fox has done more damage to the US than most other corporations. Pesticides might rank that high.

Like that one time she said 'the vaccine literally stops transmission of the virus'

Good reference - though if I may: Fox news naturally wanted to attack Maddow for anything, including semantics. If she mistakenly overemphasized the effectiveness of the vaccine because she or her writers forgot to insert 'reduces' before 'transmission', then she's made a very common mistake that anyone can make. There isn't much of a difference betwen the two claims - to reduce or to stop transmission - but of course Fox works for the .01% assholes who wanted the virus to spread, so they had to do their jobs and attack this one mistake, claiming OUTRAGE and wanting an APOLOGY. Absolutely this is evidence of the over-the-top fuckery Fox did on a regular basis, pushing that big corp and .01% agenda. If she made one minor mistake in her several decades career, Fox is responsible for daily lies to the public for 40 years, promoting the lies of the GOP non-stop. Trump also copied Fox verbatim, as did Sinclair: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvtNyOzGogc. The number of lies Trump told numbered in the 10s of thousands, and were copy-pasta Fox talking, piped-in from the NY office (DC to NY to LA to DC). Seriously, we've been seriously fucked over in the US by Fox and the GOP, regardless of one's political opinions (I agree with the GOP on a number of issues, but their lies should catch up to them at some point. Lies aren't forgivable, and allow numerous corporate and wealthy abuses. Consider for example why we're not taxing the rich like we used to. Dems joined the GOP on that front.) mkay?
