THIS IS REVOLUTION>podcast Ep. 69: How the Elites Manufacture Consent w/ Ramon Raies

One thing about this show is, I'm always looking for people to talk too.  Many of the guests on here, I'm a fan of their work, and some, I stumble across via the net.  And some, like this show's guest, I came across through social media.  Ramon is a college student studying abroad in Buenos Aires, and he's the politics editor of Creative Loafing Charlotte.    We had went back and forth for a while until we FINALLY were able to schedule some time to talk.  This is kid a very sharp.  I had to keep reminding myself he's only 19! He did turn the conversation on me a bit, and I wasn't 100% ready for the pivot a little over half way through, but this was a good time, good talk, the kids are gonna be alright.   Journalisms Gate Keeps By Tim Schwab: https://www.cjr.org/criticism/gates-foundation-journalism-funding.php   Creative Loafing Charlotte https://clclt.com/   Danny Haiphong on China in Black Agenda Report: https://www.blackagendareport.com/my-trip-china-exposed-shameful-lies-peddled-american-empire   Danny Haiphong on Uyghurs in China: https://thegrayzone.com/2020/01/22/busting-pro-war-propaganda-what-china-is-really-like/   Thank you so much for talking the time to check this out.  We really appreciate it.  Please support independent media and become a patron.  You'll get bonus content from a lot of the shows, we're developing patron only content, and you'll get MERCH!  Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/BitterLakePresents   Follow, like, and subscribe to us on these platforms:   YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG9WtLyoP9QU8sxuIfxk3eg   Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Thisisrevolutionpodcast   Twitter https://twitter.com/TIRShowOakland   Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/thisisrevolutionpodcast   Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thisisrevolutionoakland/   Medium https://medium.com/@jasonmyles/vengeance-has-no-foresight-837212d85a97
