Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

It's owned by Bezos, yes.
So just another billionaire using their stranglehold on media to try and subvert democracy.
Yes, worse than most in fact. In 2016 and 2020 the entire purpose of the Washington Post was to discredit the Bernie Sanders campaign. They were running multiple hit pieces per day every day. WaPo is the definition of controlled opposition and should not be taken seriously other than as an example of part of the US propaganda apparatus serving its function.
I still remember when they ran 16 negative stories about him in 16 hours; I think that was a record for them.
weird, MBFC says they're left-wing /s
