What is most disturbing about current affairs is: what is reported in the media.
Not just news; the so-called facts about anything are now up for dispute. Matters about the character of various people in the news is a open to interpretation or judgment as they have always been. But now, what things are healthy to eat; what vaccines are good to get; whether it is good to get into college; whether what someone said falls under the First Amendment protection; whether the President can fire a given government official: all of these matters are decided on by the White House.
I think that many of the decisions of the administration to change existing ways of doing things are decided based on whether they will annoy the 'Elites'. I just don't express an opinion about the value of anything simply because there's a small chance that someone in the Government might happen to read it, and assume that other 'Elites' may have the same values. Not that I'm an Elite in the conventional sense; I'm just a nobody. But I get mad about spelling errors, and that could be taken as an indicator.
