"worldnews": American local news
It ain't even local news. What we have now, is anybody's guess.
Corporate shitheel news.
Even as an American and as a supporter of the freedom of these federated model, I have to wonder if there should be a mandated taxonomy. I don’t want to restrict anyone’s freedom of expression, but I want there to be some basic organization such that I can be an informed consumer
If anyone is allowed too much power, like billionaires, or any anti-democratic institution likefor-profit corporations get too big, you do not have a democracy-federated or not. It's like trying to judge the flavor of a sandwich after dipping it in human shit-it mightve been a good or bad sandwich before, but no sandwich is good like this.
As the technologies of control get more sophisticated, you'll find more and more that any attempt to have democracy without metaohorically decapitating those problems just means more resources are turned to those technologies, more of society and its mechanisms seem convoluted and inscrutable.
"worldnews": only in Ohio
It's not even "news" - a lot of that shit is just Clown-President does yet another thing that a Clown would do.
Ahhhh...I get you...like the World Series.
