Our government is disappointing too.

As an American, even reading that article I don’t understand how or why that would work or be good… but I’m glad Denmark is in NATO. You guys rock.

Reply to No one watches the news anymore because they never provide any solutions to the problem reported and only exist to infuriate you for clicks and likes. by Inaerius

Doomscrolling for profit, yo! I think you’re observing something real and figuring it out. But I agree: modern news “outlets” view us as the product they market to corporations, and are one of our biggest problems. Readership isn’t an analog for solid investigation and reporting anymore.

Reply to It seems like black cops abusing power may bring about laws to keep cops as a WHOLE in check. by Sol-eks

My experience has been there are no black, white or whatever cops, they’re all blue. If anything can overcome that divide from the “protected,” I suppose your statement is the closest thing.

I kind of like Epoch, but their agenda is really clear in their coverage. Most of Fox is political commentary. When they actually do journalism, they’re not the worst, but literally no one anymore is clear on where the lines in their content are.

I respect the journey you’ve been on with them. Kudos to you for paying attention, checking sources and verifying information.

Edit: I love how pointing out things like in Capitalist America, to modern news outlets YOU are the product they are selling gets you down votes. I never understood the Cynic philosophers until Reddit. I owe you all for that, so I am grateful.

We have wildly different experiences watching the same channel then. Reality is funny sometimes.

Do we have the same Fox News?

A significant percentage of your body is alive and isn’t even technically human. Are symbiotic bacteria also you?

Reply to comment by stackered in Lopsided star cluster may disprove Newton and Einstein, controversial new study claims. An uneven distribution of stars in several nearby clusters may offer evidence of MOND — a controversial theory of gravity that disputes Newton and rejects the existence of dark matter. by nimobo

I’ve wanted to do a StackOverflow-style site for that for awhile. I think a club/group/movement for this would be cool, so I hope you do. People with credibility making supported arguments. Like the exact opposite of Reddit, where strangers make emotional arguments for whose line points. It has a place, but I don’t think pushing the boundaries of science or education is it.
