This is a general warning to most people, always focus on the accuracy rather than the advocacy part.

Don’t read or share an article just because it aligns with your world view.

News organizations in general are the “middle man” between you and events happening in the world.

Don’t let the middle man shape your view on reality, focus on accuracy and hopefully you will get a balanced world view.

      The amount of damage that man had done to the world is incalculable, and yet he has faced no consequences beyond an occasional fine.

      That said, if it wasn’t him, I’m not sure some other ghoul wouldn’t have done the same thing. He’s a product of our fucked up system, not the cause of it.
