This is one of those cases where Zero Hedge is aggregating posts originally published elsewhere. I was referring to the author, not Zero Hedge.

Yeah but the aggregation is like those NYT opinion pieces by guest writers. Barely useful unless you are in that circle

You can look at it that way, or you can say they are highlighting diverse opinions. Lately I've noticed articles with a distinct environmentalist, climate change bent coming out of Zero Hedge, which I find very strange. I don't read the Times much, but their ideology seems much more monolithic to me.

I see them as another NYT, or Chinese state paper.
Zerohedge is just the same but anti west position in everything essentially, not your traditional left vs right.
Military is what sustain and protect the alliance, it's part of the foundation of the progress, not other way around.
Either they are more naive than leftists, or they are doing it intentionally. I am more inclined to believe it's the latter
