There is only one actual truth, but you will not get it from any one source. You need to sample opposing views and come to your own conclusion. For example, CNN and FOX are the direct left and right propaganda arms of the CIA. What does the CIA want. That is the filter to apply. Currently the CIA wants to keep the CIA installed Zelensky puppet regime in power in Ukraine so they can continue to rob that country blind. This is why CNN and FOX stories match.
If those were the only possible sources then you would have a point. Just like right now you could say "BBC and RT are the only sources about the war". Right now it is difficult to vet information, but eventually there will be "shoe on head picture" or dated web archives of things.
Look at how much better things are this time where we can say "that picture is 6 years old", "that video is from china", etc. and tell people to fuck off.
The ukraine thing is still fog of war, but if you look at something like "january 6th" where the believers actually think that it is on the same level as a war (fucking idiots). We have actual footage, we have actual legal filings, we have actual information on people, we have web archives of things being memoryholed, and so on. we know actual facts to a high degree of certainty; there is a small chance that babbit didn't actually get shot and was just staged, for example. Now if you look at what the other side believes: 6 people died in the fights, a police had his head bashed by a fire extinguisher until he died, fighting aged men who owned lots of guns tried to overtake the government without guns, the people there were armed, and so on. only one of these sides is reality based.
