Sup Forums - What sites should I go to for news, and to educate myself as to what is going on in the world?
Currently, I read the Guardian for a general Western perspective on what is happening, however I'm aware that US interests and other center right UK-interest biases exist there.
I watch RT, for a definitive alternative to an American perspective (recognising Russian bias), and Al Jazeera for a more centrist US perspective (Recognising all the same that US center right/mainstream economic thought bias is still very much there).
I like Caspian Report as a Youtube Channel that seems to have decent geopolitical analysis, although vids are not released frequently enough.
In the past I have followed Chris Martenson's site, Peak Prosperity, however I am cynical of the extent his material is contorted by precious metals dealers.
I like Euan's site EuanMearns.com for what I consider decent analysis on energy issues, although it weirds me out how much he bags climate change science.
I would like to educate myself on the following topics, and would appreciate any avenues to do this in ways you believe are closest to the facts. Books, podcasts, youtube channels, news media etc all appreciated:
Topics
-US hegemonic power, and modern imperialism.
-The corruptness of the global banking sector, and the extent to which our global economy is over-inflated, and due for collapse (or reset?).
-Shadow players in US politics, and generally with influence globally, what their ties are, and how they manipulate.
-The military-industrial complex.
-The prison-industrial complex.
I'm willing to consider conspiratorial sources, but I'm fairly critical. I was looking at some info on Tavistock on Educate-Yourself.org, but ended up feeling put off after finding what seems to me bs nonsense on chemtrails elsewhere in the site.
Anyway, thoughts on any of this all appreciated.
