Link to Inventing Reality by Parenti - Didnt read it, so dont know how useful it actually is. Maybe someone could post their key takeaways

Link to Manufacturing Consent by Herman and Chomsky - Didnt read it, but once watched a pretty animation on YT that hopefully explained the mechanism well. Be aware that Chomsky has been in contact with Epstein, as far as I am aware decades after the book got first published.

    Thats a good addition to my link, especially the updated version.

    But I think only linking Annas Archive would not be as accessible because it is/was DNS blocked in certain countries, has often changed domains (and might do so in the future) and requires people to download something. Internet Archive lets people read directly in their browser, thats why I like it. Even more I would have liked to link the anarchist library, but I didn't find those books there.

    I linked the🧲, precisely to evade DNS altogether. There are comic readers that can read straight from a magnet URI, without download nothing. All in RAM. IA will soon cease.

    I think Magnet Links are even less accessible tho. Still really cool, but really not the way I would try to make cool books available to as many people as possible, especially when I dont know how technical they are and how they are using Lemmy.
