a christian priest nailing himself to a tree to be killed and reborn and killed again millions of times by lightning bolt instead of giving into a monstrous parasite that trivializes death and invalidates their core beliefs is the one of the cooler stories ive ever read in scifi

im not trying to call you out specifically but this is as good a prompt as any to mention that its crazy af that people are demanding like perfect purity from their news sources

its ok for a news source to have blah politics in editorial if they report useful news. wsj is a pee hole trash fire in editorial but until v recently they were a good outlet to check out. like anything w a reputation of the magnitude of the nyt, the times falls short of its reputation, but its still one of the best print news sources you as an american can check out. the times sunday magazine also has the most hilariously bougie regular features in the known universe and theyre so bad they just crash thru the satirizability barrier and become inherently funny. wapo is also good, and that makes me super happy. the guardian is in bitter and catty bad breakup tears mode about brexit but thats totes improved them because their pass-agg efforts to tell british people to regret brexit have made for thorough reporting on every goddamn lil detail of what is or could soon be happening wrt that process

if their sources are both broad and deep, their journalism is rigorous, and they report poo poo that other sources cant discover or wont report—thats good news. fundamental philosophical/political disagreements dont negate the value of those things. as an adult you can develop yr critical reading to recognize where bias seems to influence the presentation of a story, and not find yr mind suddenly trapped in a neocapitalist gently caress-bubble gettin pounded in the mouth by demonic laissez-faire man-scorpions for eternity.

take it from someone who spent an eternity digging thru other peoples religious ideas and writings and cultures, its possible to bury yrself under mountains of bad ideologies and not end up believing them. its also possible to read a biased af accounting of something and use it as a springboard to look for a less propagandistical accounting, and end up enriched by the experience. iranaeus catalogued a bunch of heresies w less than perfect concern for accuracy but adversus is still the best fuckin compendium of early Christian heterodoxy

now im talking a lot about newspapers up there, and newspapers are bar none the most romantic form of reporting that we have as mass media, but it applies to uh all of them. john oliver is cool and good because he presents longform television reporting in a digestible pop manner, which will engage people more than dry reporting and so serve the public interest well more than his failure to agitate for bolshevist uprising will hurt same. megyn kelly is deeply objectively flawed but excellent as an adversarial interviewer—as long as you dont take her as fuckin gospel or yr only/main source of news. rachel maddow, is good

in conclusion read longform and propublica listen to podcasts keep yr wits about you san dimas high school football rules

Cultists wish for their own deaths, not necessarily the deaths of everybody they don't like

Also the Shrike is supremely mysterious whereas Trump is the naked, pulsing Id of a dying generation's last attempts to burn the Earth down for no goddamned reason at all

Also, The Shrike spares people with no apparent thought to their income
