Unlike an article where you can cut and paste the specified portions of interest, it is not easy to edit an existing youtube video I thought you could figure that I was focusing on the residents of Maui my bad that I thought you could figure that out. 
I never wrote about celebrities or about Trump and I thought you would pick up on that, my bad. 
I did write about why I had a peak interest in the problems there because of my family who resides there.  
I thought any reasonable person could comprehend when I wrote "Rename Maui Ukraine"  that the issue was solely Maui and Ukraine, my bad.
Maybe I should have had warning signs before I posted the video to only go in the designated areas of a video or you might get your feelings hurt if you went to portions of a video that I can't edit, my bad. Next time I will have warning sides for you not to enter portions of the video, my bad.

When you post a video presentation of some guy collecting complaints about Biden, plus the conspiracy nonsense, I think it's a leap to suppose anyone would just assume you wanted people to "filter out" all the political stuff and focus on "suffering." 

ESPECIALLY since you were comparing Maui and Ukraine, in the context of where U.S. money goes. A simple disclaimer in advance would have solved the problem. But you seem put out that people can't figure that out, as you continue to frame this as me getting my feelings hurt, not your failure to contextualize.

Did I not write that??? Maybe you don't understand, ok I get it. I will explain it to you. The only videos could find that had Joy Reid agreeing with Tucker Carlson against sending money to Ukraine were from Fox & Friends and Mehghan Kelly. I opted for Mehghan's video because it was shorter and some people are allergic to Fox. So that is the only reason why I posted that video with Joy Reid because she agreed with Tucker. Next time I will provide a warning not to see Meghan and go right to Joy Reid and see where she agrees with Tucker about sending money to Ukraine.  

Still confusing, as the video was not from Fox and Friends. And why wouldn't anyone assume that the commentators' comments were part of your message, with no disclaimer beforehand?

Also confusing is that you present, as I said, Reid's claim of racial bias in international coverage of white/brown countries and say that means she agrees with Tucker Carlson. Carlson has never said anything like this and never would. Like Megan Kelly, he attacks "real" racism." 

You are taking her claim of racial media bias to be a claim that we should not be in Ukraine, thus "both sides do it."  

But that is not at all her position on Ukraine. She is critical of Carlson and others for saying that we should not be in Ukraine, and even more critical of people who say link supporting Ukraine to lack of response to Maui. So no "both sides do it" here at all. I don't know why you felt the need to prove both sides did it.
