On January 8th News Reporter David Menzies approached Elected Member of Parliament Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland and asked her a question about the IRGC. As she moved away from him a man stuck his arm out causing Menzies to bump into it. The man was an undercover Federal Police Officer who then grabbed Menzies and slammed him into a nearby billboard. After he announced that Menzies was under arrest. The video quickly went viral with many condemning what they believed was an excessive response and attack on the free press. Menzies was later released with no charges filed. Rebel News plans to sue.
I follow Rebel News and sometimes send them a few dollars. I do not agree with everything they post and report on. The Israel-Palestine conflict and environmental issues being two examples. Instead of getting angry I just do not read or view Rebel News on these issues. It is the same with other media I follow: sometimes they write something I find ridiculous and I just ignore it and move on.
Since I follow conservative media (Spectator UK magazine and Rebel News), libertarian media (Reason magazine), anarchist media (mostly on Substack), and an assortment of leftist media (from Breaking Points to the Jacobin to Matt Taibbi) I have learned to accept disagreement and ignore articles that seem ridiculous to me.
The online left is pretty much nutty and best to stay away from. I say this as an old school leftie (non left/right nowadays) not part of any tribe.
