@MrMazda @blablarg18 This just shows that the political landscape on our end is quite different compared to your end. It's so much more complicated there. This I got to say also: "Why is there so much hate there when people already know the facts about things like being gay or LGBTQ in general?" We all know in our inner selves that being gay is never a choice. It's a preference we are born with (is that the right term for it?) Yet there is anti-LGBTQ. Yet they know that gay people existed even before these foolish idiots were born. For 300,000 years in fact. Do they have the proof that there were only straight people? And who even gave the labels straight and gay in the first place. This shouldn't have been. We don't have things like anti-LGBTQ here but we do have people who still consider us a minority but never things like group up and and form an anti-LGBT. It's like people who does these never went through proper life experiences, reject factual information or even education in general, no proper friends or went through mind-alternation. People are people. So what are they? This just ticked me. I know this one is on another thread.
In the case of valid news source, yes the political landscape is quite different there and this has used news source that were valid or even the authority before. Not that I would say it's 100% totally the other way here, I can not say the same for every other country here in our hemisphere but in mine valid media sources fight political misinformation or manipulation. There are those that play neutral too. Well that was before. Now in that age of the Internet people rely more from what they see and hear from their mobile phones and this has has definitely changed the battle ground. Just like that thing with Cambridge Analytica, FB, Twitter, TikTok and YouTube are now what people read and listen to. So yes, define valid news source. For me, if I hear something from my mom about something and she would even ask me to check if it's true; I would Google it and check proper news sources to fact check it. If you don't see one news on another proper news source and you only heard or saw it from social media, there's a very good chance it's not true.
Do you guys do the same? Tell us and make others learn.
