Even in the Soviet Union, the ordinary people understood "the state's truth" and truth as understood as what really happens as separate (they had different words for the two in Russian). Pravda means what the state would like people to believe and the people understood that it would be in the interests of the state that the regular people believe it, but they knew it was not really the truth. In private conversations people would talk about a different version of truth which is what actually happens. I would imagine Americans would eventually also learn to read the motives of the makers of the media content and evaluate it in that context. But it seems the desire to believe and follow an authority is deep in some subcultures of America, perhaps coming from religious history or something like that. -

The US press has not been free in a long time. In 2025, the US were ranked the 57th most free country in the freedom of press index. It seems a small number of very rich people control the press and media in general, and truth-seeking reporting is not considered a high priority to these people. Arresting journalists is just another step towards an autocratic state. -

It's never going to happen, but the ideal scenario would be every developed country investing in the tech space to create more competition overall. As countries pull away from the United States (and rightfully so) they might look towards China, but that's just replacing one bad actor with another. It's just hard to think of playing catch up. -
It depends if you shoot 24/25/30p or 50/60. The S5ii has the crop at 50/60p which might make the wider shots a bit difficult. I believe if you a doing real estate then you are using a lot of wide shots. The S1ii is great due to it’s flexibility and I think the GH7 looks very good too. But…do you really want to change brands and start collecting lenses etc again? Sometimes it is worth it but sometimes it’s just change for change’s sake. -
Now they are trying to take away our free press rights. Don Lemon was arrested for doing what journalists are supposed to do. Show up, document, and report. Not for inciting violence. Not for committing a crime. For pointing a camera and telling the public what was happening. That is a line you do not cross in a free society. When the state starts treating the cameras we use and reporters as threats, that is not about public safety, it is about control. This is how authoritarian systems work. You intimidate the press, you criminalize documentation, and you teach people that witnessing power is dangerous. The camera has always been an anti fascism tool. That is exactly why they are trying to silence it now. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/30/don-lemon-minnesota-protest-charges
