I'm not upset, I'm trying to combat the sinophobia I see growing in my country. To remind others that our media portrays things in ways that leave out important context that would help the reader gain a better understanding.
Ah yes, the cyber equivalent of going to a fire department's press release with a "free Tibet" sign and getting upset when people ask you why you're picketing
More like going under a police department post barging about how many criminals they apprehended and reminding everyone the police department killed 5 innocent people in the last week.
or how they are using Flock to illegally stalk their ex-wives who left the abusive relationship
your example is unrelated issues

my example is hacking-hacking, the same issue, i.e. the unseen and constant cyberwar being waged

> Why are you upset at the cyber equivalent of your fire department doing a press release saying "we fought 5 fires this month."

He isn't talking about the handling of fires but about the accusations of arson, these are different issues and both of them are present in the article. It takes a human to understand that though.
