Imagine talking with someone face to face and there's a giant tv right behind you pumping inflammatory news headlines.
That's a present day situation but I never seen anyone shaking their fist at tvs screens in cafes.

- izacus 1y agoProbably because many of us avoid such cafes? The "wall plastered with TVs bar" seems to be much less popular here and those places are aggressively unpleasant for me.
