I have been a subscriber since about…
Let me add...you have now replied to my post twice ET. I would have left everything as is except you keep piling it on Nothing has changed and yet all the same problems exist. You do edit...I've watched it in live time...I post-it blips and is gone for a few minutes and reappears with changes and spacing that shouldn't be there I begin to wonder if all your talk of" we can from oppressive China was just a smoke screen that many of us fell for. I have been a subscriber since about 2017 and have had no real complaints until about the last year. They have been increasingly biased and have now completely abandoned the mission of fair and un-slanted news. Articles about democratic proponents state issues as factual events that have been proven wrong. Currently they are running articles such as about why young people and other demographics are voting for Harris/waltz but give no such articles for the opposition. They do not write anything that is in anyway damaging to her credibility. They have also started about a year ago to edit posts. I noticed many of my posts started being corrected grammatically and for spelling.(Once I noticed a post being altered I started purposely making typos) And then many of my posts I would have to repost 10 or 12 times before they showed up if at all(no profanity or abusive language just showing error of article and links or directions to go get the real facts) I also started seeing that an article had had dozens of posts listed but you could only view maybe 3 or 5. I thought well maybe it was the new filter for comments...newest, oldest most like....nope you just couldn't view them, and the comments... especially political articles went away completely. Their explanation was that their comment team couldn't keep up with the amount of comments??!! Well, why do you have a team that views comments...why not let the subscribers flag or block...unless you have some other mission. In short Epoch Times as gone the way of all main stream media...they cannot be trusted and are prone to push the party line.
