  • The sun (or as many of my fellow Liverpool fans justifiably calls it, The Scum} is indeed one of the many atrocious British tabloids. Others include The Daily Fail (Mail), The Daily Scar (Star) and The Daily Sport.

    As for The Guardian, it’s one of many venerable British broadsheets (though the physical paper is now Compact along with The Times (also Compact), The Telegraph (actually still physically broadsheet), and The Independent (broadsheet format, then both broadsheet and compact, now online only)

    I get that there could be some confusion regarding the physical paper since a British Compact is basically a broadsheet quality paper in tabloid format.

    With regards to CONTENT quality and reliability, though, it’s pretty much impossible to know The Guardian well and consider it a tabloid.

    Unless you’re one of those far right people who thinks that everything to the left of the Republican party is far left to the point of being inherently unserious, but I’m getting more of a “simply unfamiliar” vibe from you, which is why I took the time to clarify it all 😁

    As awful as the Neoliberal status quo that the Dem leadership lost all parts of the government insisting on, the first Trump administration was just a trial run where he was often hindered by people with a modicum of scruples or those without being unprepared to the point of incompetence.

    Jan 6th was the Beer hall putsch. They’re doing the night of the long knives and the Reichstag fire simultaneously while the Mango Mussolini takes the train to Rome Washington. Additional reference to 1920s and 30s fascism.
