God you people live in an authoritarian wasteland of a country.
How the fuck does the government have this much control over the media?
Billionaire oligarchs
wealthy oligarchs purchased the media, and purchased the government. so it's not the government controlling the media directly, it's just that they report to the same boss.
would you like to know more?
Because the media is owned by the billionaires, which have a vested interest in the current administration's policies
Cos we live in an authoritarian wasteland of a country. Can I come refuge in your country?
Absolutely. And I shouldn't have used those words, i just got angry
Hey, I don’t blame you at all for using those words, they were honest and quite true. I say way worse about this place on the daily
No, you are absolutely correct. No need to apologize.
billionaires ruined the USA
It's not the government, it's the rich.
In americas case, these are the exact same people
Even worse.
Late stage capitalism gone oligarchy
It may be on display like a baboons ass in the US, but it is also going on where you are. You just aren't seeing it.
