US President Donald Trump has signed an order to strip back the federally-funded news organisation Voice of America, accusing it of being “anti-Trump” and “radical”.
A White House statement said the order would “ensure taxpayers are no longer on the hook for radical propaganda”, and included quotes from politicians and right-wing media railing against the “leftist”, “partisan” VOA.
You don’t have to self-identify as “American” if you don’t want. You don’t need to apologize for a system over which you have virtually no control. The first step to resisting an evil system is probably disavowal.
