By that I mean leftists who form a vague impression of a situation from the
bourgeois media, build an elaborate schema around this vague impression, and
start anathematising people who don't appreciate their brilliance.

The New York Times was just an example.

An example of the kind of thing I am talking about is your analysis of the
Philippines situation, where you have built quite a schema around what
appears to be very little factual content.
