    And yet ultimately, MBFC places their center – by their own admission – based on US politics, which is decidedly right of center within the developed world.

      That’s correct. It’s intended for a US audience.

      If it were based on the European Overton window and you were American then there’s a good chance you would complain about its centre being centre-left for you.

      It’s not wrong; you’re just not in the intended audience.

      It’s not really possible to give internationally correct ratings. What an American considers centre-left is different from what a Frenchman considers centre-left, which is different from what a Pole considers centre-left. You can only report one, and the other two will then complain about it being wrong from their perspective.

        It should then refrain from from posting on non US-media sources and/or stories and/or communities.

        Of course it won’t. It’s purpose is to promote it’s owners US-centric political window.

        It’s spamming political propaganda ,dressing it up as ‘facts’, and it’s getting it’s just deserts.
