The US is just doing to the US what the US has been doing to the rest of the world for decades. Welcome to the club I guess
Welcome to 2025. We’re almost at December.
This year has been the longest 5 years of my life
By the time this is all over we will all be old and grey. Or dead.
Every time I read a headline I wonder if the CIA wrote it.
You need to read news without sensationalism
I don’t think that’s the issue.
Do you… do you think that’s the current pressing issue
that current events are being ‘overblown’?
Headlines are designed to get you to click. They aren’t designed to inform. If people don’t like how headlines are designed, they should find other news sources
The complaint here is not that the headline is misleading; the complaint here is that the headline is true and reality is fucked.
The headlines are specifically designed with words that make people panic. The same things can be said without doing that and still express concern.
You just want to disagree with me. But that’s okay, I have all day and I’ll die on this hill.
Okay, we have moved passed the headline in this part of the conversation.
What we are saying is the reality behind the headlines is nearly indistinguishable from satire.
You can die on whatever hill you want, but that’s not he hill we are even talking about.
How do you report on an email implying that Vladimir Putin has photo evidence of the President of the United States fellating someone without sounding sensationalist? What words would make that not sound like satire?
Email Alleges That Russian President Possesses Compromising Photograph of U.S. President
Leaked Email Claims Putin Has Potentially Compromising Image of U.S. President
Correspondence Suggests Russian Leader Holds Sensitive Photo Involving U.S. President
Document Indicates Russia May Possess Material Described as Compromising to U.S. President
Yeah those are are still pretty sensationalist, and that’s with leaving out the bulk of the content. How do you divulge the content without sounding like satire? Anyone can make a crazy story sound sane by just not telling the crazy parts. You gotta tell the crazy parts too.
