Rod MesaIf US press wrote about the US the way they do the rest of the world

Morgan ⚧️@CoastalCoasting @kevinrns @Motorod I think the argument was that the newspapers who aren't simply aren't real newspapers 🤷 journalism isn't dead but it's sure hard to find nowadays
@raphaelmorgan @kevinrns @Motorod
Definitely. I was just popping off some semantic despair, but you and kev are correct too. We're all correct, and on the same page, I was just relieving some angst. Sorry if that confused things.
skry@CoastalCoasting @raphaelmorgan @kevinrns @Motorod
Yeah, the "FY" didn't land right.
@skry @raphaelmorgan @kevinrns @Motorod
I see what you mean. My bad. The whole media situation upsets me and I handled that poorly, I'm sorry.
@CoastalCoasting @raphaelmorgan @kevinrns @Motorod We're all upset too. Solidarity. It's a lot of very bad news and mostly reported poorly.
@skry @raphaelmorgan @kevinrns @Motorod
Yeah, thanks. Sending hugs to everyone who struggles with that angst. I appreciate your compassion. I'm working on managing the stress but see I slipped and made a mess of things. Thanks for forgiving my momentary faceplant.
@CoastalCoasting @skry @raphaelmorgan @Motorod
Your correction was more than enough, its fine. Fine. No bites, no blood. Its fine. Nothing burger.

Just to be clear, the FTFY was 'fixed that for you', and definitely not 'F you'. I worry that was confused. I was out of line but I wasn't going for THAT out of line, and want to clarify what I accidentally cluttered.
Chris L@Motorod @StillIRise1963 twitter used to have an account that would do this for all the big news. Quite good.
Just a Mr Bill@Motorod @StillIRise1963 These things used to make me laugh. Now I just sigh.

Rusty Ring"Congress is weighing its alternatives in the matter of armed intervention."
Spot on.
grassfox86@Motorod That's how anyone should write about what's happening in the US. But no, America is special and it isn't as bad as those other countries.
Dendan Setia (Nins)@Motorod there's a Kenyan journalist, Patrick Gathara iirc, who does this pretty consistently in the last few years lol
873@Motorod Yep, it is b=very sad. And what would the almighty US do if there was a dictator in a country who was committing crimes against humanity (provided they were not serving US best interests of course)... they would go in and....uh hmmm, how to say this... remove them.... and claim to have saved the world.. again
This Account Kills Fascists@Motorod 100% referring to my home state as "the coastal province of New Jersey" from now on.

@Motorod That might be because the US is a failed state and a failed society and a failed culture. Even the most critical voices (podcasts) need Amazon and Shopify commercials as a business model.
Violet Madder
Dave Mc@Motorod Don't forget to call the US an "oil-rich former British colony"
Ross of Ottawa@Motorod bingo! Kenyan journalist who follows this approach:
Ethnic Massacres in US as Mother of Two PM Faces Criminal Probe in Norway - The Elephant
International concern is growing following yet another wave of ethnic killings in the troubled, banana-exporting US republic.
