    /50501 here and on reddit.

    Why would the news, controlled and operated by oligarchs, give people protesting oligarchs any coverage?

      After the big one I think around early or mid-March, I remember seeing it on the front page of CNN the next morning. It was buried in a lower part later I’m the day, but it was at least front and center the morning after the protests.

      Even Fox has covered them a lot. I’ve seen this all spring. They aren’t completely ignoring this.

        Just another question, where would you ideally like to see protest news posted on lemmy? Yes there’s the 50501 community, I also post on DSA community. Where else?

        Do you think reddit is immune to the oligarchs? I don’t think so at all.

        Well no, but the question was why is there no mainstream media coverage.

        I’ve posted a couple things here on lemmy. Let’s be honest though, the reach of reddit is orders of magnitude higher than here
