Because the first question shifts the blame to the desperate, making their morality the focus, while the second question demands accountability from the powerful. It's easier to question survival than to challenge greed.

Integrity used to be the media’s strength. Now it’s just a lost value.

A reason why we got here is that the media stopped reporting facts and replaced reporting with making everything a reality tv show where contestants fight one another. It turned lying from a liability into an advantage since it would no longer be punished

Agenda shapes what you see. Propaganda shapes how you feel about it. One controls the story, the other controls the emotion. Together, they can bend truth into whatever serves those in power 📝

So real. We keep fighting each other at the bottom when the real weight is coming from the top

Forget about the petty differences between us on the lower rank of society aka the poor.

Remember that the majority of your problems comes from the rich who exploit us every step of the way.

1. History isn’t there to be liked or disliked.
2. History is there to be learned from.
3. History offends you? Even better. Then you’re less likely to repeat it.

It’s that simple.

Sometimes all we need is someone to sit with us in the mess and say, 'I don’t know how, but we’ll be fine.'

SON HEUNG-MIN !!! Such a lovable player !!!

Ryan Rosenblatt @ryanrosenblatt.bsky.social · Aug 2

I’ve never loved an athlete like I love Son. A wonder to watch who was an even more wonderful person and he was the one who truly loved the badge, sticking it out til he went out as a champion.

There’s only one Son Heung-min. There will only ever be one Son Heung-min.

The replies will tell you everything you need to know. If they’re all off-topic, hostile, and not mutuals, it’s not organic.

Pro tip: if you post something and it gets swarmed by pseudo-intellectuals with garbage takes, and not even one is a mutual, you’re likely the target of a social media division campaign.

Every ‘we’ve streamlined operations’ announcement means someone’s now doing three people’s jobs in silence.
