Are people in the US aware that they are now definitely a rogue state, or is this fact covered up by the usual patriotism somehow? (lemmy.world)

Hounding someone on something they don't agree with just makes them shut down a conversation.

Using something like that brings the bias to light without them ending the conversation. You cannot assist someone with seeing bias in media who just blocks you. While it sucks, sometimes small steps help getting you going in the right direction.
