I wish people would stop using "politics" as a buzzword for every bit of news they don't care to hear about.
News is fine.
It's when people start screaming/blaming the "left" or "right", the "biden" or "trump", etc.
Extra annoying when I am not even fucking American and have to hear Americans scream about your old senile corpses you call presidents in EVERY FUCKING POST.
Extra extra annoying when I am reading a news article about my country, and Americans roll in screaming about how that's "bidens fault" or "illegal in montana". Learn to fucking read where you are.
But then again, According to a 2020 report by the U.S. Department of Education, 54% of adults in the United States have English prose literacy below the 6th-grade level.
How does this compare to other western countries?
As an American, I couldn't resist.
