It’s because this is the excuse and cop-out you see thousands of times when you’re a communist dealing with liberals. When liberals are eventually forced to confront that their sources lie about a particular topic, they don’t admit they were wrong and adjust their behavior to think critically about those sources in the future. They throw their hands up and go “Draw game. If my source is wrong then yours can’t be right. You didn’t win. Everybody has a bias, you can’t trust any government.” and then 2 weeks later they’ll send you the same source to tell you why China bad.
In that sense I understand. I didn’t get this exact vibe from this post, but with context I see how it could be. I just wouldn’t assume by default that that’s what the person that made this post is about, though it’s definitely possible.
