I hope you appreciate the irony of your white-hot rage against framing, and the contrast of you saying:

> this is the new normal even if it’s only “because we say so”, that when an other option is presented, and one isn’t ordered to “accept this because…” it resonates.

> Surely you realize this.

Why aren't you just stating the facts and letting parent decide? I don't think you are against providing relevant context (i.e. "framing"), you just have a bee in a bonnet about ... something - journalism as practiced today perhaps, but that has very little to to with the topic at thr root if the thread - until you reframed the discussion to be about journalism.
