We haven’t even made it to January 20 (Trump inauguration). We already have major fires in our second largest city, terrorist attacks, talk of invading Greenland/Panama/Canada. almost no one talking about what we really need to do to cut carbon. Hospitals are full in my area and people talk about washing hands, but not about masking. I am already so weary. I don’t know what is going to happen after January 21.

        Paragraph? This is Trump we’re talking about. He can’t hold a thought for longer than two sentences, max.

          I wasn’t talking about him, but more other people who - if you see a headline of “XY succinctly summarizes [issue]”, all it will be is distilling a messy, nuanced topic down to “You should feel A,” often with ragebait to convince you.

      “Goes to war with” might not be a great idea to filter on, because that fuckin imbecile will very probably start an actual war with a country that can hit back, now that he’s emptying out all of the career + nonpolitical people in the state department, DoD, and alphabet agencies who stopped him from doing that last time.

      • Probably, but the headline will start with "US invades“ or "US demands“ or something along the line. Filtering out anything that starts with “Trump” is safe
