We haven’t even made it to January 20 (Trump inauguration). We already have major fires in our second largest city, terrorist attacks, talk of invading Greenland/Panama/Canada. almost no one talking about what we really need to do to cut carbon. Hospitals are full in my area and people talk about washing hands, but not about masking. I am already so weary. I don’t know what is going to happen after January 21.

    Add in “succinctly explains” too. That’s shorthand for “reduces complex issue to a paragraph”.

      Paragraph? This is Trump we’re talking about. He can’t hold a thought for longer than two sentences, max.

        I wasn’t talking about him, but more other people who - if you see a headline of “XY succinctly summarizes [issue]”, all it will be is distilling a messy, nuanced topic down to “You should feel A,” often with ragebait to convince you.
