fellodipon Taiwan says dozens of Chinese military jets entered defense zone

> Interesting language. Taiwan can't be "reabsorbed" because it wasn't a part of China to begin with.

Two sovereign entities both presiding over the china landmass predating ww-2 had Taiwan within their territory sovereignty to begin with??????

fellodipon China proposes prohibiting private investment in news service sector

I like to think of there being different domains of trust. Trust to present accurate information to their best knowledge, trust to thoroughly vet information, trust to not construe facts to construct a false reality (ie a narrative), trust to tell it like it is, trust to not present a biased self interested story that omits important things purposefully, trust to be an expert on the subject matter, and so on.

Obviously any thinking individual will know Joe Rogan is worse at some of these aspects than mainstream media but they also recognize that mainstream media will willfully consistently violate other domains where Joe Rogan won't.

I trust Joe Rogan will tell me some stupid stuff about conspiracies and extra dimensionality trips, but I also trust that he won't tell me this stuff just to sell me on sponsors or his party's agenda, unlike the mainstream news.

US does these things, its just not highlighted front page material in American press when it happens, so it goes unnoticed to American populations unlike when adversaries like Russia fly bombers near Alaska.

Also US conducted similar maneuvers as what China did to Taiwan but to Iraq preceeding the Iraq invasion.
