While I haven't look into articles of this event. I do know a lot of American news sites slams the door in the face of any European trying to read them. Making it an absolute pain in the ass trying to read some articles, so asking an American to explain it for you, is definitely the easier option.

The top reply is literally a link to the story which, unsurprisingly, cleared the whole thing up for OP.

r/outoftheloop started strong with niche explanations from people in the know before it devolved into every top post being "What happened with [event]?" karma farm garbage. It seems we're starting out that way here...
