    How are human rights violations political? They’re global. Hence “news”.

    Get your ostrich head out of the sand of American exceptionalism and realise that this breaches international treaties for due process.

      While this story is believable, it’s only on Facebook and Reddit, which is not “news”. There are so many verifiable horrors occurring right now, shouldn’t the news instance be about facts?

        Cool beans. Point at the comment I replied to and how it was arguing about source invalidity?

        You can’t? Too bad. That means your point is irrelevant to my comment.

          The comment argued it’s a meme and not a news article. Calling it political is dubious, or debatable at best, but that seems like the least important part.

          Stop making this about yourself.

          What?
