      I downvoted and I’m not angry. I just recognize that this post is intentionally inflammatory and trolling. As his common from OP.

        Wtf are you talking about? It’s literally a statement from the Whitehouse. How is Yog being intentionally inflammatory?!

      My downvote wasn’t in anger. It’s more about the fact that this isn’t a news article which makes it questionably breaking the rules of this /c/. Combined with the headline being serious editorializing via broad generalization of what the statement is. Not saying it’s not true, just that it’s a unnecessarily sensational.

        It’s a press release from the White House. Why would you need a journalist to stenograph it for it to become news?

        And OP’s description is good, it helps cut through the typical liberal mealy-mouthed framings that are, otherwise, the only ones you would ever hear.

          But who will chew up this statement and feed it to me like a baby bird. How am I supposed to form an opinion without a media propagandist telling me what to think!
