       I wonder if there has been USAid sent to British news corporations... and how this reflects what the talking points are if so?

       @sim It's laundered through NGOs. You find the NGO, you find the grant.

       @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @sim Tbf, they sent money to a BBC-run charity that funds development work outside the UK. Not to the part of the BBC that does UK broadcasting.

       @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @Flick @sim Because the Equality Fund, which was not run by USAID is a private partner + government group administered by State (which was *not USAID) includes advisors from other governments.Get over the USAID obsession, and maybe you would see the picture.

       @Leyonhjelm @polarisera @sim @Flick @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain The largest recipient of USAID was Catholic Charities. Kinda screw up your whole it's about trans agenda, with that GC pope and all.The 2nd largest was Save the Children.The highest profile effort was stopping AIDS in Africa.So, you have come out in favor of starving children and letting people die.Cool.

       @Leyonhjelm @sim @Flick @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @polarisera And once again, you failed to bother to fact check. You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him think.FYI: It was largely not US taxpayer money. It was from private billionaires.USAID has become shorthand for funds, regardless of who funds them, even when they come from the known billionaires funding the entire movement, and as directed by the UN.Gawd damn, you are fools. No wonder conservatives can't get shit done.

       @LostInCalifornia The post you are talking about did not mention my tax dollars.  I'm against it no matter who is funding it.I am not a conservative.  The US has gotten rid of most of what I would have liked to conserve.  I want very little to get done.  Getting less done is the goal.  The more you disrupt and defund the federal government and the more of it is destroyed, the better.@sim @Flick @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @polarisera

       8% of their budget for the arm that “…supports local media around the world to deliver trusted information to people most in need”AKA whatever the US and UK intelligence apparatus needs to get disseminated.

       @Leyonhjelm @polarisera @Flick @LostInCalifornia @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain I was much more interested in the idea that Argentinians didn't necessarily learn as much about America from their news corporations even though there isn't an ocean between them compared to somewhere like Britain which is in Europe and there is an ocean between us. The BBC is an obvious organisation to look at but there are other news outlets here too. Because we do get influenced by what happens in America here, like a trickle down effect... why are we so influenced by America? Is it funding from something like USAid or funding from elsewhere perhaps?

       @sim The very notion of independent broadcasting at scale is silly. Podcasts are probably the only medium that has ever done it beyond early web pages. If you have the resources to broadcast, there’s someone you can’t anger

       @LostInCalifornia @Leyonhjelm @Flick @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @polarisera To be fair, only one person in this thread brought up trans stuff which is an example that the BBC does promote. It wasn't the person you were responding to here. It wasn't what I had in mind nor did the person you respond to here mention it.But the Pope is an interesting figure because I thought he was more along those talking points. That was considered more woke but now he sends off mixed signals if this quote from an article I read is anything to go by and they support Trans people:"These harsh words come from the same pope who has made history by repeatedly meeting with trans people, inviting them to his audiences, holding private audiences, and even sitting with some trans women at a Vatican luncheon last fall. He told trans youth: “God loves us as we are.” And yet, repeatedly, he also speaks of “gender ideology” in near-apocalyptic terms—and without much clarity. Indeed, his language on gender seems out of sync with his entire pontificate. How can a pope who speaks and writes in existential terms about climate change, who claims the world is experiencing World War III in piecemeal, claim that evolving understandings of gender and sexuality are the “worst danger” of our times?"https://www.newwaysministry.org/2024/03/02/pope-francis-refers-to-gender-ideology-as-the-worst-danger-today/

       @Leyonhjelm That is actually a very good point in terms of resources at scale. We also have guidelines to follow here so there might be some of that mixed in here. I still wonder about the focus on America compared to elsewhere. I wonder if other countries hear disproportionate news about another country compared to countries around them. The heavy focus on Trump didn't help matters when they brush away real concerns happening at home.

       @sim He’s right though. To a Christian leader there can be no more important thing than the things that connect us with our infallible God. God created us in His image. That makes our body sacred. Gender ideology suggests not only is that gift a mistake but a curse. @LostInCalifornia @Flick @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain @polarisera

       @polarisera @Leyonhjelm @Flick @LostInCalifornia @TriptychTwinsRidesAgain Their record for child safety is in question like the BBC. That would be an interesting investigation but we know these lib types aren't best known for safeguarding children let alone human trafficking concerns.
