Topic: Coindesk is now a pure trash propaganda outlet and must be destroyed - page 2. (Read 2045 times)

I've seen some decent articles recently,
i've also seen articles that are pure propaganda, blatant lies with no sources or fact-checking.

Some writers seem to be worse than others.

But I would be wary to trust anything on that site.
Some of the writers have an obvious agenda. Usually its to promote one product while slamming its competition.

Thank you for stating this. It is pertinent information to this topic.

Let's read these article with a pinch of salt. Most bitcoin related sites publish "pro-bitcoin" articles. Perhaps we can supplement that with articles (not many) from the mainstream media- to have a better understanding of what the "layman's" thought on the latest development of bitcoin.

I really couldn't to imagine this from coindesk, I thought such thing would be written by only cointelegraph. Such news publishing is bad because now most part of web media is hiding truth from people and often people don't check trust and that's bad.
Despite this, I don't agree that they must be destroyed but if they delete this, it will be good and halfly reclaim of their "fault".

R0ach, you make very good arguments, and I agree with most of what you said.   Too much immigration,  too much poluting of the gene pool, too much crime.

Gotta love people who decry the fact that we're moving away from physical money, and yet they embrace bitcoin wholeheartedly.

This text looks exactly like something written by Soros or Hillary.

Making an enemy out of Russia: check.
Want to have a cashless society not with bitcoin but their own centralized scamcoin: check
Supporting Globalisation (also illegal immigrants): check
Being against GOLD; check.

This is definitely written by Soros himself. Or he used his footsoldier Hillary to do the work for him.

but some people still have the mindset of the good old days where they think 'media' get paid to do the research and then explain it to the lay person accurately but in a simple form.

things have changed its now used to twist accurate information and not make it simple which hides the truth and then blames people for reading it without the people doing the checks themselves..

you're never going to convince a media outlet to change its ways simply by no longer viewing them with a loss of a 0.001cent pay per clickbait fee , especially if they are funded by hundreds of thousands of dollars privately.. the 0.001cent click income wont rivel their private income to run a story

the simple solution is to never believe anything you read in media and to find non-media proof/evidence/research from real sources.

You don't need to believe everything this website is telling you, the internet is freedom of speech. You could continue to read the website, but simply make you own judgment from the story and make you own opinion.

You can validate the information from other reliable source.

Well, If it is not blatantly shilling... then they most probably open the floor for everyone's opinion. If they take sides and chose not to publish

specific apposing opinions, then I would agree with you. The funny thing is, these guys built their site on "Bitcoin" articles and then they

turned 360 degrees. "Under new Management", seems so applicable now...   

this is just a trick to say what they want to say and make the effect they wanted to make but at the same time escape any consequences buy easily saying we don't completely agree with this, blah blah!

it is a trick news media always does.
as an example you can see what they did with the satoshi news, they never said "Craig Wright is Satoshi" if you read the articles they released the hot/clickbait news and never said anything clearly.

this is the same, they spread crap and only say it is not our views!

It depends on any type of readers view whatever shit was posted there. If a reader will just read and read on a same source then they are not a type of a research person who only taking point on a single side and will just believe in it.

With the lots of sources now where we can get bitcoin articles including news, Coindesk is just a part of it but never considered as a primary source of a authenticate information about bitcoin.

digital currency group and blockstream are both in the 90+ bankers hyperledger collaboration

Coindesk knew exactly what they were publishing and expected that this publication will cause a stir. Hence they added a Disclaimer:

"The views expressed in this article are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the views of, and should not be attributed to, CoinDesk."

Something like this make me think that this article is against official views represented by Coindesk. Which is even more stupid.

Why they publish articles which are against their beliefs?

Yes, we know, which is their scapegoat clause saying when people inevitably read their absurd propaganda they can say "oh, we didn't write it, some other guy did!  It's not our fault our website is pushing international banking propaganda!"

Coindesk has always been suspect like everything else, I've put up a sign on the world "gone fishing", and won't be back.

This article is labelled as 'opinion' not 'feature' on coindesk.

As arransiv said, media is biased, it cant be looked at from a neutral perspective, we could have see that in thebrecent elections, and it's the best not to take a ll those articles as facts or a one true fact.

Midia is just point of view from writters. Any midia will tend to one side.

I'm happy that you can have your own opinions however none truth is 100%, again, I'm happy that you don't let the midia ride your mind.

Maybe you can show your pov with the writters or well, write some articles. Everything have 2 sides.

The propaganda in the above article includes:

- Suggestion that we use cryptocurrency as world reserve currency, but then does a bait and switch and says, oh but not Bitcoin (likely a federated chain run by the state or central bankers) HAHA

- Mentions the Federal Reserve not only in a positive light, but that they should have dictatorial power over the monetary system to operate a debt based scam currency and anyone who opposes them is bad or unreasonable

- Mentions the IMF and World bank in a positive manner when they're just malevolent institutions like the fed

- Writer dismisses metals as useful (gold/silver).  Bankers despise serfs using metals because gold and silver circulated in native form as coins are the only known sound monetary systems.  Gold "backed" currency is useless because it's essentialy the same thing as fiat in practice.  

- Affiliation with MIT (where chain anchor came from to turn Bitcoin into a permissioned ledger run by the state)

- Writer is against letting nations control their borders.  Another red flag.  Bankers and shills like Soros are trying to flood every 1st world nation with 3rd world immigrants because only a homogenous population like Iceland can unite to throw the bankers out.  If you flood a nation with 3-4 warring factions, it's a divide and conquer strategy to keep them enslaved.

- Writer is against people who want to withdraw from globalization and forced entanglements, which the US founding fathers explicity warned against.  Calls anyone that doesn't want to have endless wars for foreign entities "isolationist"

- Writer pulls the race card when anyone that has a basic understanding of sociology knows multicultural civilizations are far more likely to collapse than homogenous ones like Japan or China.  Trying to force "diversity" onto civilizations is always a divide and conquer strategy for someone else's benefit (usually the central bankers to weaken the cohesion of society to prevent being overthrown)

- Demonizes Russia for no reason (we all know the real reason - threw out Soros and refused to bow down to the bankers)

- So, in summary, Coindesk puts out propaganda directly from Federal Reserve central banking shills now.

- Also, never trust anyone as far as you can throw them that claims Cryptocurency is a superior store of value to metals.  Cryptocurrency has uses, but it will never be a superior store of value.  You need to destroy the entire planet to black swan metals, while cryptocurrency is much easier to hijack or destroy.  Metals will always be the base of Exter's pyramid and there is no possible way for cryptocurrency to replace it.  The price of Bitcoin can still go up like 100x, but if the market cap of metals is not larger than crypto, you're in an irrational market and things are going to implode.
