It's Been Quite A Disgusting Week.
It's been quite a disgusting week.
An 8-year-old girl got stabbed to death by a teacher in her school. At the time of writing, all we know about the killer is that she is in her 40s, has been depressed (not a major factor but emphasized in the discourse for some reason), had history of starting altercation with other teachers, and was planning to kill random child who stayed late in school.
When the initial findings were reported, teachers have flooded comment section to insinuate that the killer was not a full-time teacher but caretaker for children who stay after school because their parents work, which was found to be a baseless lie.
Then it was revealed that the deceased kid's parents heard the killer's breathing and footsteps which were recorded in the kid's cellphone thanks to some app. The teachers are more concerned about the use of such app than the fact that a kid got murdered by a teacher in the school.
Fast forward to today, some outlets published interviews with the kid's father. In some parts of the interviews he seemed to have asked a famous K-pop singer that the kid had been a fan of to visit her funeral if she had time. Some TERFs on Twitter took notice of this and started to accuse the father of exploiting his daughter's death and even dug up some of the posts he had previously written in a different website to justify such harassment.
I'm not interested in arguing whether or not those posts were in poor taste. What pisses me off is that they are trying to shit on the family of a dead girl in service of the middle-aged homicidal teacher lady. Before taking aim at the victim's father they were complaining that the newspaper headline includes information about the killer's gender, which is often not the case when the criminal is male. Yes, the killer was a woman, but so was the victim! Do these fuckers only care about grown-ass women but not the young girl whose life was cut short?!

“I honestly feel like forgetting about, or removing the intelligent Deathclaws removes a very interesting part of the lore, and potential for the story. One aspect of Fallout that I feel really could be explored more is the person-hood of those we initially find strange. They explore this to degrees with Synths, Ghouls, and Super Mutants, but I honestly feel that Deathclaws could be used to take that a step further, and raise some interesting moral questions overall as well.”

A good movie will let you suspend disbelief for the duration. A bad one makes you angry that they think you are that stupid.

The abysmal state of Korean journalism:
A couple of national newspapers (one of them being the largest in the country) published stories about some Trump campaign documentary, in which they say that Oliver Stone (filmmaker) was one of the associates in the situation room with Trump to watch Kamala Harris speak at DNC.
The problem is that this report was based on a couple of clips and some people tweeting about an old man in it resembling Oliver Stone. The individual they are referring to is most likely this guy.
There are many frustrating cases of bad journalism but this one stands out for me for some reasons. Regardless of what Oliver Stone actually believes nowadays, I could instantly recognize that the person in the screenshot was not him. Yet two paid journalists, including a guy who lives in Washington as a correspondent for the largest newspaper of a nation, wrote this!
I am already seeing slurry of eulogies from the media of the CEO who killed 4 people with himself in the imploded submarine that sugarcoat his gross negligence and disdain for safety regulations as “innovation” or being “adventurous”.
After all the Serious™️ condemnations of people mocking the victims for their opulence, if these hagiographies are their preferred alternative, they shouldn’t be surprised that people have such low trust in media.
