Your source is biased, bro

Congrats to Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Poland, Czechia, and Slovakia for making the cut

Almost like news written in english tends to focus on english-speaking countries and their allies

let's tune into Radio Saudi Arabia and find the real thuth! /s

South Korea is pretty good about pumping out culturally relevant stuff too. Honestly I'd say they do it better than Japan these days (not that I'm personally interested in stuff like k-pop, but it's clearly huge)

Idk, I feel like Al Jazeera gets quite a bit of visibility and has a good amount of credibility, but Qatar isn't on this map.

South Korea tends to make the cut also

I like to call this "The Commonwealth and Friends"

no dictators, no worries.

I guess I should be less surprised how this meme is sailing over people's heads in here

Is this post done in relation to some news story that just occurred?

Or is this just a generic First World versus Third World post?

It's the ladder, then they missed a few First World countries on that map.

'Western' media is known in the outside world to report the horrific truth AFTER a war has ended. Or they just wait until enough people make a stink about it, look at Ukraine in their second war.

Just look at what happened in the Bosnian war, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Qatar, Africa, Asia... And the atrocities committed there were systematically underreported. Sure, they'll write a few uninspired paragraphs about it and move on.

I'm not saying Eastern media isn't biased, they report more emotional so you have to filter that out. And it's an active war, so they might get some misinformation. But over the years they proved to be more often than not right after everything's done. (Looking at you Srebrenica and all the US wars).

Then the Western media swoops in and makes some documentaries about facts most people with a satellite dish or a second language already knew. Thoughts and Prayers.

After the Ukrainian war started this changed. It's the first time everybody and their mother can follow the war while it's happening.

Now it's happening again in Gaza, but journalists are getting killed en masse because the other side knows about it.

I really recommend everyone to read and watch different sources from different countries/languages and make up their own mind. There's Google translate if you can't speak several languages.

New Zealand is happy to be included

What do you think "international" means?

"US liberals would be far right anywhere else in the world!"

The world:

You never hear about China or Russia?

Unless you're talking about the UN, of course, in which case the map in the picture us essentially inverted.
