Comments by "Tony Wilson" (@tonywilson4713) on "Michael Moore Responds To Being Name-Dropped By Luigi Mangione" video.
@Myfriendvinny WTF do you mean "you do not murder people" Murder is a legal term for defining or classifying what a person has done in relation to the death of another. Other legal terms include manslaughter and negligent homicide, regicide. In fact there's a list of words ending in the syllable "cide" like genocide, matricide and patricide. Sorry but murder is a real thing and it happens in every society.

I'm Australian and your 3rd point about the media is arguably the biggest problem across the World right now. The complete failure of both mainstream and alternative media to EFFECTIVELY INFORM the general population is so profound its hard where to say we start. I'd argue the problem started here in Australia when we let Rupert Murdoch go without any restraint on what his people did and especially with respect to MISINFORMATION. Before he went to Britain Rupert, cut his teeth with magazines and newspapers that disgusted many but always found a willing audience he could tap into. We tried warning the Brits what he was like when he went there, but they didn't listen. We tried warning the Americans what he was like when he went there, but they didn't listen either. In the 2004 documentary Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism there was a prediction that eventually the rest of the media would follow the Fox business model down into Rupert's gutter. As your comment shows that prediction has come true.

@Eyeluvlola That goes all the way back to Milton Freidman and his near fanatical hatred of all things government. I'm just watching Steve Keen (who was one of the few economists who predicted the 2008 GFC) talk to Chris Keefer on the YT channel Decoupled. Chris's channel is mostly about energy and in particular nuclear energy. I'm an engineer and despite some of Chris's attitudes he often has some great people on and Steve is one. At one point Steve explains the difference between the "Theory of Capitalism" and the "Practice of Capitalism" and it goes RIGHT TO YOUR POINT. Ona side issue. If by chance you are interested in nuclear energy from either side. Chris has had James Krellenstein on several times. As an engineer I find James incredibly well informed on the subject of nuclear energy. Both his father and grandfather worked in the nuclear energy industry so he's 3rg generation. He's NOT pushy or let his passions get the better of him, like Chris does at times. James simply explains various aspects of the nuclear energy industry, including where there are some significant issues like construction costs and where the enriched fuel comes from.
