What did she say? I don't want news to tell me how to feel.
She said that the execution and murder videos would have been better viewing if they had flipped their phones horizontally.
I thought you were joking at first. In what universe could this be considered supporting them?
How else do you interpret that statement?
Dark humour.
Consider the following fictional situation:
A news story comes out detailing a terrible tragedy where some people were stuck in a collapsed mine for months and that they had to eat one of their dead to survive. A horrible situation by all accounts. One of the miners is later interviewed and they mention how bad it was to have to eat someone. Someone then posts online saying this: "Next time it won't taste so bad if you add some salt and pepper."
Is the person who made the post condoning cannibalism? Of course not. Was the comment in poor taste? Absolutely. (Pun not intended)
maybe the "film horizontally" part.
but the "Freedom Fighters" Part is a clear Endorsement from her.
I was only referring to the "film horizontally" part, which is what the original comment (that I thought was a joke) was referring to.
right, but that's not what was bad about what she said. You can't just Cherry-Pick what you like and leave out what you don't.
