Like many others, I used reddit as a link aggregator to keep up with news and current events. I’m never going back to reddit so I’m using ino reader as my news app and was hoping to get some suggestions on good sources to keep up on news, politics, etc. Any suggestions on sites I should check out to stay informed?
i have a list of bookmarks for this, so take your pick of any of the following:
general, not ideology-specific
- Jacobin
- The Nation (US-oriented)
- Democracy Now
- Tribune (UK-oriented)
- Open Democracy (mostly UK-oriented, i believe)
- The Maple (Canada-oriented)
- The Intercept
- Truthdig
- Truthout
- Jewish Currents (Jewish-oriented, obviously)
ideology-specific
- Left Voice (Trotskyist)
- Industrial Worker (anarcho-syndicalist/syndicalist, published by the IWW)
- It’s Going Down (Anarchist)
longer form or more irregular
- Current Affairs
- Dissent Magazine
- In These Times
- Spring Magazine (Canada-oriented)
- Protean Magazine
Might be good to put these in the sidebar?
probably yeah; i do think it’s a little US-centric for my liking and a little sparse on ideological content (i want it to be sort of agnostic overall, ideologically) so improvements from the crowd would also be helpful here
Yeah, I think that will come in time as well. Thank you for being ideologically agnostic. The more people we’re able to welcome, the better for the cause. Much better than shutting people out like so many ML communities do.
I’d add Mint Press News to the list.
Don’t forget about The Lever.
Awesome! Thank you so much
From the UK.
Can be a bit hit and miss, but it’s worth a read for socialists: https://www.thecanary.co/
Might be considered Stalinist by some, but it often does have some interesting articles from from various strands of leftists: https://www.morningstaronline.co.uk/
The first name that comes to mind is Jacobin.
