if Gaza is any indicator

the ownership and editors of corporate media couldn’t care less about their journalists on the ground

Well all the uproar is just created by Chatgpt and Grok now so of course the AI cares more about the self driving cars than the obsolete reporters it's replacing anyway. Trump and Musk are basically working for Skynet at this point.

Priorities?

I think it's crazy not to be reporting in LA without a helmet and a flak jacket to be honest. It's not France, it's America. Bang Bang America.

Never thought I’d have to be fearful of law enforcement seems awfully naive of someone covering American law enforcement.

haven't you heard? according to CNN's @erinburnett.bsky.social‬ it was the protestors shooting at the police & ICE.

Hard to argue that 30 incidents isn’t a reflection of intent to target/assault journalists.

Waymos are people at conception.

Do you think it's b/c they've bought into T's hating of journalists?

k-m-c.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's so journalists will stop reporting their brutality towards unarmed peaceful protestors.

sis-n-pups.bsky.social•5 days ago

The line about never thinking they would need to be fearful of law enforcement.... they're freaking literal journalists - have that not been paying attention? They clearly don't understand the type of person who is drawn to positions of authority & power over others

I tried to make this point earlier and someone scolded me for celebrating fires that release injurious toxins.

I don't care how much you care about cars. I just want you to care about humans **more than that**.

This is why we should never let Israelis train our law enforcement agencies.

Those rogue cops must be prosecuted!!

We are at war with a criminal organization that has taken over the United States government. The best possible outcome is a quick military coup if there’s anyone left there who cares.

Amen, you can clearly see him take aim. Did you see the 3-4 LAPD guys on horseback surround and then start beating on a guy on the ground? No consequences for any of them, guaranteed.

chris-us.bsky.social•5 days ago

It’s crazy to me that they also feel free to shoot full-lethal ammo at anyone who runs to avoid arrest.

bchristyb.bsky.social•5 days ago

And by the MEDIA no less.

There doesn’t seem to be any concern from most Americans about this, about Trump’s grotesque corruption, about the gutting of science, education, etc. Where is the outrage? Where is the America we used to admire?

realdonkeyboy.bsky.social•5 days ago

LAPD to the rescue of its citizens.

If we’re going to get through this with minimum damage, people other than soldiers are going to need to be prepared to sacrifice. Reporters, housewives, ordinary workers, grandparents.

I don’t say this with any happiness.

Flaming Waymos new band name I call it

tompaine1776.bsky.social•5 days ago

I think he was aiming at the cameraman. Which is worse imo.

schooley.bsky.social•5 days ago

Bad idea and bad aim. Awesome.
