The weird jingoism in the media reporting around the Sydney stabbing is extremely cringe. "Warrior" cops and "god tier legends". Really? You know it's possible to report the news without being all tabloid about it.

Also "thoughts and prayers" from insert various people. Cool thanks for letting us know. Completely meaningless and predictable "sentiment".

Yes, surprised the word Cobber didn’t come out at this end of April. Especially since so many were yelling to instant grant citizenship/residency without any knowledge of the chaps in question wanting that.
