The Economist on Thursday published a scathing editorial criticizing Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs on virtually all of the United States' trade partners.
It’s why I canceled. They have good news reporting but they personally view countries (notably the USA) as nothing but an economic engine. They don’t honestly care about the lives of the people who live there. Kind of like how they think the USA needs to cut “red tape” with DOGE but can’t specify what or precisely why. But it’s crickets on usable healthcare…
Same. I used to be an avid reader as a young adult but I couldn’t bear them anymore with how little they care about people.
It’s all money money money, not people.
To be fair, the economist is shit.
They cheer welfare cuts that are projected to put tens of thousands of children into poverty and complain about tiny tax increases on the rich.
The economist is the magazine of the upper class. They may be neo-liberal instead of straight up facist, but they are morally bankrupt.

That’s a good point, I really can’t argue.
