"They" are capable of getting mad about things (their friends facing mild social discomfort), objectively, while only activists are concerned with things like "immigrant concentration camps."
"The Left have an unfortunate tendency towards political violence," I muse, as I read about the torture camps established by my favorite political sources.
Of course there are good reporters doing things like reporting about torture camps. But as I used to say a lot, there is the news and then there is the talking about the news. The people who talk about the news shape what is seen as important, what is emphasized.
