In spite of the obvious political references, I submit this post belongs on Space/Science because its primary concern is about methodology and the role of bias on our analyses and reason.

While doing some research on Virginia Governor Northam's alleged racism for another thread (in Current Events), and wanting to establish some facts about my contention that Southern history is a sham deliberately designed to cover up its racist, pro-slavery agenda with a veneer of historic and traditional respectability, Google turned up a website for for me that beautifully corroborated my assertions: portside.org.
This is your basic Left-wing portal, proudly,
shamelessly partisan for the Left. It gave me plenty of ammunition for my point. On the other hand, while I was there, I skimmed through several other articles, including one that describes the Leftist takeover of Venezuela as a noble proletarian act, and the current problems of the Maduro regime as solely the result of capitalist US meddling in Venezuelan political and economic affairs. Needless to say, this is a viewpoint I certainly do not agree with. The Chavez-Maduro gang is too reminiscent to me of the Castros in Cuba, another murderous and incompetent Socialist regime that has somehow managed to attract to itself the uncritical adulation of too many American Progressives.

There is no doubt that US and capitalist imperialism exists, but you can't blame every volcano, hurricane and dictator on los yanquis.

Beware of purely partisan perspectives; even those you may happen to agree with. Each situation must be examined individually, not through the filter of a particular ideology or philosophy. Sometimes our side is just plain wrong, and sometimes their side may actually be right. And sometimes, the truth just lies somewhere in between.
