I dont think the Bent judge is saying these are not despicable acts, just pointing out that we seem to pick and choose select few things to get angry/upset about, and this is largely influenced the media.
You know what makes picking and choosing what you get upset about worse? When people don't care about it until a separate incident occurs. Why wait until the attacks on Paris to decide you care about starvation in Africa? Just an attempt to be left wing and oppose anything that comes from the media. Which btw I believe doesn't influence what we get upset/angry about but rather we influence it. If more people cared about something, the media will report it.
what are you talking about ?
Can you explain to me why I should care 150 french people died*? why is their death
any more special than anyone else? I dont mean to sound crude but I have no idea what you are on about.
*Yes, I do think they are 'despicable acts', for clarity.
the only part I understand is;
If more people cared about something, the media will report it., And you are wrong i reckon.
How do you think the news works.
Is it a sort of democracy that reports what the majority of people "care about"?
Look at he plight of women in the the third world compared to the trivial shyte western feminists get all riled up about.
Who cares about young girls forced into marriage with older men or having their clitoris removed when we have the scourge of "manspreading"....
the randomness of dioc. does bring us full circle however
posing the question if we have crocodile tear for some girls in a sandy wasteland somewhere then why are we happy to be a bitch of the saudis? the no.1 sponsors of terror
