Sort of funny-sad to be tapped into all the major political US networks and seeing all the closed feedback loops around the same dismal news.

It's one thing that the news is enhancing nearly every negative event, another that the frames and narratives are all siloed.
It's not surprising people can't communicate when they don't even agree on basic facts about what's going on in each instance.

Completely the same item of new:
- Proves BLM is out of control
- Proves riots are violent
- Proves BLM is justified
- Proves protests are peaceful
- Proves someone is a murderer
- Proves they acted in self-defense

It doesn't matter that people are running off hearsay or chaotic phone recordings or official wore of god knows what pedigree.
Everything is proof of what everyone already believes, no matter what they believe and how contradictory it might be.

Pretty sure at this point, the medium is just the mirror.

I constantly have opinions about what would be good or bad and what seems to be happening.
But seeing smart people constantly argue completely speculative points from out of their own butts makes it clear it's just adding noise to say anything.
Perhaps this is intended? FUD...
