The highest calling of journalism isn’t to tell two sides of a story.
The highest calling of journalism is to tell the truth.

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Anyone calling for a return to normalcy without consequence needs to have their career ended immediately so we can get people in office willing to do what is needed, which is to build a new and better normal, having disarmed and defunded the corporatist fascist occupation of our government.

Democrats just ran the table, winning the marquee races -- NJ and VA sweeps, NYC mayor, CA prop, PA Supreme Court -- and lower-profile races in red and purple states across the nation.
If the media you're reading or watching paints this as anything but a massive win, stop reading or watching them.
