Used to be is the important part, now it smack of the ultra tame language the media uses when they are actually ok with what they are reporting on.
The US “Annexes” Greenland, but Iraq “Invades” Kuwait,” (neither is ok, but the language used is different)
It’s the same when a black man is accused of a crime, they show a picture of the man in prison clothes, while a white guy is in some loving family pic.
It’ll never change, not while the rich and powerful own all the media. ignore me, I’m just bitching.
You only need to blur the funhole!
