Seattle’s (former?) Capitol Hill neighborhood

Across the board, i read/listen/view for CONTENT, when others reject due to outward appearance....

Years ago, i rejected tabloids, i felt they earned rejection. Because of ridiculous content.
i no longer do that in the same way. The internet changed the dynamic. It’s not strictly msm or tabloids. no more.

I'll agree, the internet has persuaded way too many people to accept ridiculous content from sources on YouTube and Instagram who used to reject ridiculous content from tabloids.

i don’t disagree.
i counter this by mostly frequenting various sites i’ve grown accustomed to over time.
i try to assess the individual for credibility .. not necessarily that i always agree, i don’t.

but, consistency, willingness to admit error, interest in finding/learning more ..
these are things i value IRL, on forum, and in reaction/opinion pieces.

i’m just starting to view Charles Forte’s videos.
i find him promising. i enjoy seeing growth.

Maybe the inventors have found a way to hijack normal levels of discernment and skepticism.

A mass shooting during the Bite of Seattle festival at Seattle Center on Sunday evening left three people dead and at least four others injured, including a 2-year-old boy, according to the Seattle police and fire departments.

Investigators said early reports indicate that two suspects exchanged gunfire outside the Seattle Center armory and bystanders were caught in the crossfire.

Police said they don't believe the public is in danger, and investigators are working to identify others involved in the shooting.

The three people who died were a 19-year-old man, a 44-year-old man, and a 56-year-old woman. Two died at the scene.

Four people, including the 2-year-old boy, were taken to Harborview. One of those victims died at the hospital.
As of Sunday night, Harborview officials said three victims were in satisfactory condition: a 39-year-old woman, a 23-year-old man and the 2-year-old. Hospital officials said their injuries involved gunshot wounds to the leg, abdomen and arm.

A 27-year-old man with a gunshot wound arrived at UW Medical Center - Montlake in satisfactory condition. He has since been discharged.

1) respect basic civilized law enforcement;
2) rule by criminals.
